Product Description
The Zip HydroTap G5 Classic Plus is an under-counter filtered water system that dispenses instant boiling and chilled water through a single tap. It is designed for continuous use in commercial and workplace environments where reliable, filtered drinking water is required throughout the day without the need for kettles, water coolers, or separate dispensing equipment.
In practice, the unit handles steady demand across a working day without notable performance drop-off. The boiling output is suited to locations with frequent hot drink preparation needs — staff canteens, break rooms, hotel back-of-house areas, and front-of-house hospitality points. The chilled output performs consistently in warmer environments, keeping water at a stable cold temperature even during periods of regular use. The filtration system removes particulates to a fine level, which makes a practical difference to taste and appearance in areas with harder mains water.
From an operational standpoint, the Classic Plus offers several day-to-day advantages:
- Instant boiling and chilled water eliminates kettle wait times and frees staff
- Filtered output reduces limescale build-up in downstream equipment
- Cool-touch spout and safety activation modes reduce burn risk in busy environments
- Dispensing is designed to avoid splashing, keeping counters cleaner during service
- Single tap and compact under-counter unit simplifies installation and bench layout
Installation requires a mains cold water connection, a suitable power supply, and adequate under-counter cabinet space for the command unit. At 28kg, the under-counter unit is straightforward to position during a fit-out but should be accounted for in cabinet loading. A drain connection is also required. It is worth confirming your incoming water pressure and filtration compatibility with your plumber or installer before committing, particularly in areas with high sediment or limescale levels where filter replacement frequency may be higher.
The Classic Plus is well suited to medium-sized workplace environments, hospitality venues, and food service operations where a reliable, all-day supply of boiling and chilled filtered water is a genuine operational requirement rather than an occasional convenience. For very high-footfall sites dispensing to large numbers of people continuously, it is worth considering whether a higher-output model would be more appropriate for the demand profile.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your site's water demand or installation setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The Classic Plus is well matched to medium-volume sites such as workplace canteens, hotel break rooms, and hospitality back-of-house areas with regular but not continuous peak demand. For very high-footfall locations dispensing to large numbers of people throughout the day, it is worth assessing whether a higher-output model would better suit the volume required.
- The unit requires a mains cold water connection, a power supply, and a drain connection, along with sufficient under-counter cabinet space to house the command unit. At 28kg, the under-counter module is manageable during a standard fit-out, but cabinet load capacity should be confirmed. We would recommend discussing water pressure and incoming water quality with your plumber before installation, particularly in hard-water areas.
- Filter replacement frequency depends on your local water quality and usage volume — sites in hard-water areas or with high throughput will typically need more frequent changes. Keeping on top of filter maintenance protects both water quality and the performance of the unit over time, so it is worth factoring ongoing filter costs into your decision alongside the initial purchase price.
