What is the difference between a 3 in 1 and 4 in 1 boiling water tap?

Deciding on the right hot water tap for your home can seem quite daunting, but this blog will make it very simple for you. With all the different taps on offer, each one having different features, it’s easy to get lost in all the details online.

Firstly, you need to decide exactly what it is you want from your hot water tap. All households have different requirements for their kitchen tap – but more and more homes are also wanting filtered cold water on tap.

Whether you need a tap for making a cup of tea/coffee, cooking lunch/dinner, sterilising bottles, or even keeping your family and your pets hydrated, the list goes on.

To make it easier for you, we have listed the differences and benefits of a 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 tap below:

3-in-1 Hot taps - provide standard hot and cold mixer with instant 98 degree hot water. As our most affordable hot tap we offer a choice of two tanks - our cheaper 2.4L Solo tank or our advanced digital 2.4L Nexus tank.

4-in-1 Hot taps - provide the same as the 3-in-1 Hot tap with the addition of filtered cold drinking water. These are our most popular taps, and are available with either a 2.4L or larger 4L advanced digital Nexus tank.

Both taps have a swan or square neck option, with an added child safety button with spring mechanism on the near boiling (98 degree) handle.

If filtered cold drinking water is something you prefer, then our 4-in-1 range is perfect for you. For something extra special we have our 4-in-1 pull-down hot water taps - these offer you all the same features as our standard 4-in-1 taps but with an additional pull down flexible hose.

Filtering out impurities like chlorine, lead and any other harmful contaminants makes filtered water not only taste better but it’s also better for you and your family.
