Not all boiling water taps come with installation included in the price. Although you can install them yourself, it's not necessarily straightforward, so you may need to factor in the cost of a plumber. A boiling-water tap doesn't have to mean adding a second or third tap around your sink. There are different combination available:

The only response I have had despite several conversations and text messages is that I should either do it myself, get a plumber, or a family member to do it for me. The flow from the dedicated boiling water tap is just a little spluttery, in the sense of not quite being a seamless flow. It spits a little when you first turn, then starts shooting out. This can sound a bit worrying, but doesn’t actually spray all over the place or anything – it goes straight down into your mug or pot easily enough. The tap itself can be cleaned like any other, paying particular attention to limescale around the nozzle.

There’s a lot of choice out there now, but Fohen’s colour range and prices really drew me in. I knew I wanted something beyond the standard chrome to make our kitchen feel extra special, so when I found the pink Fahrenheit tap it was love at first sight! We also wanted something that was simple to use and didn’t take up too much space under the sink. The boiler unit is nice and compact, and the whole system is significantly cheaper compared to other big brands out there. What’s not to love? Brass construction, chrome finish, 3L tank, 4 temperature settings, 80-98°C temperature range, removable filtration unit. We had no problems housing the water tank under the sink, and still had space for a shelf to go above it, so there wasn’t much impact at all on storage. The filter needs to be upright, so that’s best if mounted to a side panel, so that’s another factor when you’re working out where everything will go.

The Fahrenheit which is a single tap which unites both mixer and boiling water functions. The design is simple, modern and is our newest innovation. The associated hardware could include a small boiler/water tank and a filter too, so if you’re not great with DIY it might be best to get a professional to fit it. The filter, incidentally, can help prevent limescale, but will need replacing over time so keep an eye on replacement costs for that too.I wanted an antique brass look tap and the brushed gold was just the right shade and matt finish. It goes really well with the knurled brass handles and the brass inside the pendant lights. I also love it because it looks good after lots of use and as good as when I first got it. It shows marks far less than chrome. The exterior has been designed to be cool to touch which we can confirm works, and a temperature stop button will limit its usability and hot water exposure to prevent users from being scalded.

The Grohe Red falls behind on aesthetic choices, with just one: its standard ‘Steel’ look. If your home has a cohesive look that involves other metals or colours, this model may not be right for you.
