Your everyday hot and cold water comes from the same tap.

Everything that heats, chills and filters sits out of sight under your sink. Your benchtop stays clear for cooking.

What is an instant hot and cold water tap?

An instant hot and cold water tap is a kitchen tap connected to a compact system under your sink. It filters your mains water, then heats it up to 98°C or chills it to 8–12°C.

Filtered boiling and chilled water pour from one tap, alongside the hot and cold water you already use.

Everyday life

Why choose a multi-function kitchen tap?

Because it quietly becomes part of how you live. One tap at your sink pours filtered boiling and chilled water, alongside your everyday hot and cold water.

  • For families

    Easy hydration. Filling drink bottles with chilled, filtered water slips into the school-morning routine. Dinner starts with boiling water for the pasta, poured at the sink.

  • For entertaining

    An easier life. A chilled jug waits on the table before your guests arrive. Green tea at about 80°C, the way it's often made, turns into your evening ritual.

  • For offices

    Better living at work. Give your team a kitchen worth gathering in, made for about 15–20 people.

How it works

How does an Alia instant hot and cold water tap work?

Your everyday hot and cold water flows straight from the mains. Boiling and chilled water takes four steps first.

  1. Cold water from your mains passes through the filter first. It holds back fine grit and reduces chlorine taste and smell.

  2. From there, the filtered water goes two ways. It's heated to the temperature you set, from 35°C to 98°C, or chilled to 8–12°C.

  3. Every boiling pour starts with a child lock. Hold the X51's lock button for two seconds, then the boiling button, or use the 4 in 1's child-safe handle.

  4. Chilled, filtered water arrives at your tap, for the dinner table or a drink bottle. Use the handle on the 4 in 1, or touch the panel on the X51.

Installation and ownership

Hot and cold water tap installation, filters and warranty

Before you order, check three things. Your plumber can confirm the space and water connections, and an electrician the powerpoints.

  • Space required

    500mm wide, 580mm deep and 450mm high, in the cupboard under your sink

  • Powerpoints

    Two for the 4 in 1, three for the X51

  • Water connections

    Your plumber connects the tap to your existing hot and cold water pipes. Every Alia tap comes with a valve that keeps incoming water pressure at 500 kPa or below.

Powerpoints needed, by model

Each unit needs its own standard powerpoint in the cupboard under your sink.

Questions

Instant hot and cold water tap FAQs

Still choosing a boiling and chilled water tap? 
Call (03) 9219 0189 or compare taps in our tap selector.

Does a multi-function kitchen tap need special plumbing?

It connects to your existing hot and cold water pipes under the sink, and a licensed plumber must install it. 

The installation schematic shows a pressure limiting valve (PLV) on the cold mains. The units under the sink need standard powerpoints: two for the 4-in-1 and three for the X51.

Can I add sparkling water to my hot and cold water tap later?

Sparkling water comes with the Alia X51 Instant Boiling, Chilled and Sparkling Filtered Water Tap, from $3,850. It adds the Fizz-X unit and a 2.2 L CO2 cylinder to the boiling and chilled system. 

Call (03) 9219 0189 and our team will talk you through your options.

How hot does an instant hot water tap get?

An Alia instant hot water tap pours filtered boiling water at any setting from 35 °C up to 98 °C, up to 1.6 L at a time. The same Bollente heating unit powers the boiling water on every Alia boiling and chilled tap.

What happens when several people use it at once?

Each boiling pour gives up to 1.6 L, about eight cups, then the system needs time to heat more. Both taps suit an office of about 15–20 people. For a busier kitchen, call us on (03) 9219 0189.

Which Alia boiling and chilled water tap is right for my kitchen?

Choose the 4-in-1 Instant Boiling and Chilled Filtered Water Tap at $2,500 if you want filtered boiling and chilled water, plus your everyday hot and cold water, from one lever tap. Choose the X51 Instant Boiling and Chilled Filtered Water Tap from $3,000 for touch panel controls, or from $3,850 to add sparkling water. Call (03) 9219 0189 and our team will help you match a tap to your sink.

What is the difference between a hot and cold tap and a chilled water tap?

A hot and cold tap pours mains water at the temperature you mix. An Alia boiling and chilled water tap also pours filtered boiling water from 35 °C to 98 °C and filtered chilled water at 8–12 °C, from the same tap. Your everyday hot and cold water stays available as well.

Can I install a boiling and chilled water tap in an apartment?

Usually, yes. A boiling and chilled water tap needs a licensed plumber, standard powerpoints under the sink (two for the 4-in-1, three for the X51) and room in the sink cupboard for the units and filter. If you rent or live in a strata building, check with the owner or body corporate before any plumbing work.

Does every water output pass through the filter?

No. Only the boiling and chilled water is filtered. Your everyday hot and cold water comes straight from the mains.

How much does a boiling and chilled water tap cost in Australia?

The Alia 4-in-1 Instant Boiling and Chilled Filtered Water Tap is $2,500. The Alia X51 Instant Boiling and Chilled Filtered Water Tap is from $3,000, and the X51 with sparkling water is from $3,850. A replacement F5000L filter cartridge is $150 including GST.

Who installs an instant boiling and chilled water tap?

A licensed plumber must install an Alia boiling and chilled water tap. You can use your own plumber or find an authorised installer on our installers page. A licensed electrician adds any extra powerpoints the cupboard under your sink needs.

How often does a hot and cold water tap filter need replacing?

Replace the F5000L filter cartridge every 8–12 months on average use. It is rated to 10,000 L, and a new F5000L filter cartridge is $150 including GST. The filter covers the boiling and chilled water, while your everyday hot and cold water comes from the mains and skips it.
