Instanta CTS13SL 13 Litre Slimline Counter Top Water Boiler

Product No: CTS13SL

Product Description

The Instanta CTS13SL is a slimline, auto-fill counter top water boiler designed for commercial and hospitality operations that need a reliable, continuous supply of near-boiling water throughout the service day. It connects to a standard 13-amp socket and draws cold water directly from the mains, replenishing automatically as it dispenses so there is no manual refilling to manage during service.

In a working environment this type of boiler performs well under moderate, sustained demand — breakfast service in a hotel, continuous tea and coffee output in a staff canteen, or all-day beverage service in a café. It is not designed for sudden, very high-volume peaks across multiple simultaneous service points, and operations with that profile would be better served by a higher-capacity model. For consistent, steady throughput it runs reliably throughout a full service day without requiring close attention from staff.

Several features contribute to day-to-day operational reliability:

  • Auto-fill operation sustains continuous output without manual intervention during service
  • Integral filter monitor prompts timely filter changes before water quality is affected
  • Self-diagnosis LCD display helps staff identify faults quickly and reduce downtime
  • Boil-dry and over-fill protection safeguard the unit during busy or unsupervised periods
  • Slimline footprint preserves worktop space where counter room is limited

Installation requires a counter top position with access to a cold mains water supply, a 13-amp socket, and an appropriate inline filter. It is worth confirming that your mains water pressure falls within the manufacturer's specified range before fitting. No dedicated electrical circuit or specialist installer is required, which keeps setup straightforward for most sites.

The CTS13SL suits cafés, hotel breakfast operations, staff canteens, healthcare facilities, education settings, and smaller restaurants with steady hot water demand. If you are unsure whether the output aligns with your specific service volumes, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
