Delivery Information

The Zip HydroTap G5 Classic Plus is a mains-fed, under-counter filtered water system that delivers instant boiling, chilled, and sparkling water from a single tap. It is designed for workplaces and commercial environments where a consistent, high-quality drinking water supply is needed throughout the day — removing the need for kettles, standalone water coolers, or bottled water services.
In practice, the G5 Classic Plus handles sustained daily demand well. It can serve a busy office, staff restaurant, or front-of-house refreshment area through peak periods without significant waiting. Filtration to 0.2 micron removes sediment, chlorine taste, and fine particulates, which makes a noticeable difference to water quality in areas supplied by hard or heavily treated mains water. The sparkling function adds useful versatility for hospitality settings where both still and sparkling options are expected as a matter of course.
From an operational standpoint, the key day-to-day advantages include:
- Instant boiling, chilled, and sparkling water from one point of use
- No splashing or spitting during boiling water dispensing, reducing burn risk
- Built-in safety activation for boiling water, appropriate for mixed-use environments
- Cool-to-touch tap body throughout operation
- 0.2 micron filtration for consistently clean-tasting water across the day
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and a suitable electrical supply. The under-counter command centre needs adequate cabinet space, and at 39kg the unit demands a structurally sound cupboard with clear access for servicing and filter changes. Plumbing should be carried out by a qualified professional. This is not a plug-and-play product, and proper commissioning at the outset makes a material difference to long-term reliability. Routine filter cartridge replacement is an ongoing maintenance requirement that should be factored into site planning.
The Classic Plus is a practical choice for offices, hotel back-of-house areas, staff facilities, and hospitality venues with a consistent but moderate demand for filtered drinking water. For higher-volume sites or locations requiring multiple points of use, a higher-capacity model within the HydroTap range is likely to be a better fit.
If you have questions about whether this unit is correctly sized for your expected usage, or want to talk through the installation requirements for your specific site, our team is glad to help you work that out before you go ahead.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if the Classic Plus has enough output capacity for my site?
The 240/175 output rating refers to the boiling and chilled capacity in cups per hour, which makes it well suited to moderate but sustained demand — a busy office floor, a hotel staff room, or a small hospitality refreshment point. If your site has very high footfall or multiple peak periods running back to back throughout the day, it is worth discussing whether a higher-capacity HydroTap model would serve you better before committing.
What does installation involve, and can we fit it ourselves?
The unit requires a mains cold water connection and a dedicated electrical supply, and the under-counter command centre needs a structurally sound cabinet with enough space for the unit itself and for future servicing access. Plumbing must be carried out by a qualified professional — improper installation affects both performance and warranty, so this is not something we would recommend attempting without the right trade experience. Our team can talk through site-specific requirements if you are in the planning stage.
What ongoing maintenance does the HydroTap G5 Classic Plus require?
Filter cartridge replacement is the primary routine maintenance task, and the frequency will depend on your local water quality and daily usage volume — harder water areas typically require more frequent changes. The G5 platform does provide filter life monitoring to take the guesswork out of scheduling. Beyond filtration, periodic servicing of the command centre is advisable to maintain consistent performance over time.
