Product Description
The Instanta CTSBC2810 — also referenced as the CH1000/MK3 — is a countertop unit that delivers both boiling and chilled filtered water from a single mains-connected appliance. It filters incoming water before dispensing through a twin-tap arrangement, making it a practical alternative to running separate boiler and cooler units or maintaining a bottled water supply in locations where both hot and cold water are needed throughout the day.
In working environments, this type of combined unit performs well where demand is consistent but moderate. Staff refreshment areas, smaller hospitality operations, hotel back-of-house, and customer-facing beverage points are all common applications. The integrated filtration means dispensed water tastes clean and consistent, which has a direct bearing on tea and coffee quality where that matters to the operation.
Running a single combined unit rather than two separate appliances carries some practical advantages worth considering:
- Single mains water connection rather than two separate installation points
- Filtered output reduces reliance on bottled water and the restocking that comes with it
- Twin-tap design keeps hot and cold dispensing clearly separated for staff
- Non-drip taps help maintain a tidy dispensing area during busy periods
- Countertop format suits locations where floor space or under-counter room is limited
Installation is straightforward in most settings. The unit runs from a standard 13-amp plug socket and requires a mains cold water feed, so there is no hardwired electrical work involved. It is worth confirming that a suitable water connection and drain point are accessible at the intended location before deciding on placement.
This unit is well suited to small and mid-sized operations with steady but moderate demand for hot and chilled water. For high-footfall environments such as large staff canteens, busy hospitality venues, or sites needing water at multiple points simultaneously, a higher-capacity system is likely to serve better.
If you would like to talk through whether the output and installation requirements are the right match for your site, the team is happy to help before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The CTSBC2810 is designed for consistent but moderate demand, making it well suited to smaller operations, office refreshment areas, and back-of-house hospitality settings. In high-footfall environments where multiple staff are drawing hot or chilled water simultaneously during peak periods, a higher-capacity system would likely be a more reliable choice — it is worth discussing your expected usage before deciding.
- The unit requires a mains cold water feed and connects to a standard 13-amp plug socket, so no hardwired electrical work is needed. You will also need a suitable drain point accessible at the intended location. Confirming these services are in place before installation will avoid any delays on the day.
- Yes — as with any filtered water unit, the filter cartridge will need periodic replacement to maintain water quality and protect the internal components. The frequency depends on local water hardness and usage volume. Keeping on top of filter changes also helps protect the heating and chilling elements over time, so it is worth factoring that into your ongoing servicing routine.
