The Buffalo 20-litre manual fill water boiler is a countertop hot water urn built for commercial and semi-commercial hot drink service. It fills by hand rather than connecting to a water supply, which means it can be positioned, moved, or used wherever a socket is available — no plumbing required.
The design that sets this apart from a standard urn is its double-walled insulated construction. Water reaches serving temperature more quickly than a single-skinned boiler, and once hot, it holds that temperature for considerably longer — including after the element has cycled off. For operations with intermittent demand rather than a continuous queue, this matters: the unit does not need to run constantly to keep water at temperature, which is where the energy saving becomes meaningful in practice. Buffalo quote up to 60% less energy consumption compared to conventional single-wall boilers, and the insulation performance supports that in normal use.
In day-to-day operation, the main advantages are:
- Reduced energy consumption during quieter periods between service rushes
- Faster heat-up from cold, helping operators reach serving temperature sooner
- Good heat retention reduces reheating frequency throughout the day
- Thermal safety cut-off protects against dry running
- Straightforward daily cleaning with no complex components
Being a manual fill unit, it does require staff to monitor water levels and top up as needed. For high-volume sites turning through large quantities of hot water continuously, a plumbed-in boiler is likely the more practical choice. For cafés, office catering, community kitchens, hospitality carts, or event catering where flexibility matters more than continuous-fill capacity, the manual fill approach is often the better fit.
This model suits operations serving moderate volumes of hot drinks where portability and running costs are priorities. For higher-volume sites or those needing a larger capacity, it is worth considering a plumbed alternative before ordering.
If you want to talk through whether this suits your service pattern, the team is happy to have that conversation before you commit.
£393.00(£471.60 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 10 Litre Auto Fill Water Boiler is a countertop unit that connects directly to a mains cold water supply and maintains a constant reservoir of hot water for tea, coffee, and general hot beverage service. Because it refills automatically, there is no need for staff to monitor water levels or top the unit up manually during service — it simply stays ready throughout the day.
In practice, this boiler suits operations with a steady, consistent draw rather than sudden high-volume bursts. A small café, hotel breakfast counter, or staffed hospitality point will find it keeps pace comfortably, providing reliable hot water without requiring much attention from staff. The adjustable temperature output allows operators to dial in the right setting for their preferred brew temperature or to work alongside a filtered water system.
From an operational standpoint, the key day-to-day advantages are:
- Auto-fill connection removes manual intervention during busy service periods
- Adjustable temperature output suits different beverages and filtration setups
- Filter life indicator on the control panel prompts maintenance before it affects water quality
- Removable drip tray keeps the countertop clean and is straightforward to empty and rinse
- Stainless steel construction handles the demands of a commercial environment without deteriorating quickly
Installation needs a mains cold water connection and a standard 13A power supply. The unit should be positioned on a stable, level surface with easy access to both a water feed and a nearby drain or waste point for the drip tray. At 13kg it is straightforward to place and reposition if the counter layout changes. It is worth being honest that the output capacity suits light to moderate demand — for larger sites with high peak draw, such as banqueting operations or busy quick-service counters, a higher-output unit would be worth considering.
This boiler is most commonly used in small cafés, hotel reception and breakfast areas, staff canteens, and office catering points where consistent hot water availability matters more than very high throughput. It is less suitable for sites that experience sharp spikes in demand across a short service window.
If you would like to talk through whether the output matches your service volumes, or have questions about the water supply requirements, our team is glad to help you work it out before you commit.
£272.00(£326.40 inc VAT)
The Buffalo Slimline Auto Fill Water Boiler is a compact, plumbed-in hot water unit designed for continuous use in commercial catering environments. It connects directly to a mains water supply, refilling automatically to maintain a consistent supply of filtered hot water without any manual intervention from staff.
For a 10-litre unit, the throughput is respectable — capable of dispensing up to 30 litres of hot water per hour, which is sufficient to support a steady flow of hot drinks service in cafés, hotel breakfast operations, office canteens, and similar settings. The auto-fill function means the boiler is always ready, removing the downtime associated with manual-fill kettles and reducing the risk of a dry boil during a busy period.
The narrow 178mm footprint is the defining practical feature here. On a tight counter, that width genuinely makes a difference, and the stainless steel construction holds up well to the knocks and cleaning routines of a working kitchen. The drip-free tap keeps the area underneath tidy and reduces slip risk at the point of service.
- Auto-fill operation removes the need for manual refilling during service
- Filtered water output protects the unit and improves drink quality
- Narrow profile frees up valuable counter space without sacrificing capacity
- Stainless steel body stands up to daily commercial use and routine cleaning
- Consistent hot water supply supports uninterrupted drinks service
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and a suitable electrical supply. Positioning near an existing water feed will simplify fitting. For sites with harder water, a scale filter or softener is worth considering to protect the element and maintain efficiency over time.
This unit is well suited to lower-to-medium volume operations — a busy café or high-footfall canteen turning over large quantities of hot drinks continuously may find the output limiting at peak times, in which case a higher-capacity boiler would be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this model will keep pace with your service, we're happy to talk through your requirements before you order.
£91.11(£109.33 inc VAT)
The Caterlite 20-litre water boiler is a freestanding, manual-fill unit designed for producing hot water for tea, coffee, and similar hot drinks service. It requires no plumbing connection, which makes it practical for use in locations where a fixed water supply is not readily available — event spaces, temporary catering setups, meeting rooms, or staff areas where running a supply line would be impractical.
In operation, the unit heats a full 20-litre load and maintains temperature ready for service. A water level indicator lets operators see the fill state at a glance, and an automatic boil-dry cut-off provides a basic but important layer of protection if the unit runs low. The cut-off resets via a button on the base, so recovery from a low-water situation is straightforward without needing to move the unit.
The stainless steel twin-walled construction keeps the exterior at a manageable temperature during use and makes the unit reasonably straightforward to wipe down between services. Key practical points include:
- No plumbing required — fills manually and connects to a standard 13A socket
- Boil-dry safety cut-off with base-mounted reset button
- Water level indicator for at-a-glance monitoring during service
- Twin-walled stainless steel body for safer handling and easy cleaning
- Lightweight build suitable for portable use or occasional relocation
It is worth being clear about the intended use. This unit carries a light-duty, semi-commercial warranty rating, which reflects its design for intermittent rather than continuous heavy service. It is well suited to smaller hospitality businesses, office catering, village halls, function rooms, and mobile catering where demand is moderate. For sites running sustained high-volume drinks service throughout the day, a heavier-duty plumbed-in boiler would be a more appropriate choice.
If you are unsure whether this unit matches your service volumes or whether a plumbed alternative would serve you better, the team are happy to talk it through.
£79.86(£95.83 inc VAT)
The Caterlite 8 litre water boiler is a compact, manually filled hot water urn designed for locations where a mains plumbed supply is not available or practical. It heats water to boiling point and holds it ready for use, making it a straightforward solution for serving hot drinks in meeting rooms, waiting areas, staff canteens, or mobile catering setups.
In practice, the unit suits light and intermittent service rather than continuous high-volume demand. An 8 litre capacity is sufficient for small gatherings or low-footfall settings where refilling between sessions is acceptable. The twin-walled stainless steel construction helps retain heat between draws, which matters when a urn is left standing during quiet periods.
Key practical points worth noting:
- No plumbing connection required — fills manually from any tap
- Boil-dry safety cut-off with a base-mounted reset button
- Water level indicator visible during service
- Stainless steel body wipes down quickly between uses
- Portable and light enough to reposition easily
Because this unit requires only a standard 13A socket, installation is simply a matter of placing it on a stable, heat-safe surface with access to a power outlet. There are no gas, water, or ventilation requirements to consider. It is worth noting that the warranty covers light-duty and semi-commercial use — this is not rated for continuous professional kitchen service, and operators expecting heavy all-day throughput should look at a higher-capacity plumbed unit instead.
This boiler is best suited to offices, reception areas, function rooms, village halls, small bed and breakfast setups, or any location that needs a reliable hot water source without permanent installation. For sites with higher footfall or a constant demand for boiling water throughout the day, a larger or plumbed commercial boiler is likely to be a more practical fit.
If you are weighing up whether this capacity is right for your setting, we are happy to talk it through.
£2,278.00(£2,733.60 inc VAT)
The Bunn H5 is a countertop hot water boiler built for continuous commercial use. It delivers a reliable supply of hot water on demand, making it a practical choice for beverage stations, instant soups, noodle bars, and any front- or back-of-house setup where consistent hot water availability is a working requirement rather than a convenience.
In service, the H5 earns its place through steady, repeatable performance. It is designed to cope with the kind of sustained demand that characterises busy cafés, hotel breakfast service, staff canteens, and fast-turnaround food operations — environments where running out of hot water, even briefly, has a direct effect on service flow. The stainless steel construction handles the daily rigours of a commercial kitchen without the corrosion and wear concerns associated with lesser materials.
From an operational standpoint, the H5 offers a number of practical advantages:
- Ready supply of hot water without repeated boiling cycles slowing service
- Stainless steel body is straightforward to wipe down and keep hygienic
- Compact footprint fits comfortably on a counter or beverage station
- User-friendly controls keep operation simple for all staff
- Direct connection reduces reliance on manual refilling
The H5 is a direct-feed unit, so it will require a mains cold water connection and an appropriate electrical supply. It draws between 3.4kW and 3.8kW, so the electrical circuit serving it needs to be rated accordingly — worth confirming with your site electrician before installation. At just over 15kg, it is manageable to position, though the plumbing connection means placement should be planned before commissioning.
This unit is well suited to small to medium volume operations that need a dependable hot water source without occupying significant counter space. For very high-throughput sites — large hotel operations or high-volume catering — a higher-capacity unit may be worth considering to keep pace with peak demand.
If you are unsure whether the H5 is the right fit for your service volumes or installation setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£1,702.00(£2,042.40 inc VAT)
The Bunn H3 is a countertop hot water boiler built for continuous use in commercial environments. It heats and holds a reservoir of water at a consistent temperature, delivering on-demand hot water for tea, instant beverages, soups, and similar applications without the delay associated with heating from cold each time. The stainless steel construction is practical in a kitchen context — it resists corrosion, wipes down easily, and holds up well under the kind of daily use a busy site demands.
In service, the H3 suits operations where staff need reliable access to hot water throughout the day without interruption. It performs well in café, hotel, office catering, and light-to-mid-volume food service settings where a consistent supply of hot water supports smooth workflow. The heated reservoir means there is minimal waiting time between draws, which matters during a breakfast rush or a busy lunch service.
Practical day-to-day advantages include:
- Immediate hot water draw without heating delays during service
- Stainless steel construction resists scale build-up and is straightforward to clean
- Compact footprint suits counter space in tighter prep or servery areas
- Simple operation reduces staff training time
- Consistent output temperature supports repeatable beverage quality
The H3 connects to a mains water supply and requires a standard electrical connection — the element draws between 2.5kW and 3kW, so it is worth confirming your available circuit capacity before installation. It is a direct-water-feed unit, meaning it does not need manual refilling, which makes it more practical than a pour-over boiler in most commercial settings. Ensure adequate counter space and proximity to both a water supply and a suitable socket or spur.
This unit is well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast operations, staff canteens, and similar sites with steady but not extreme hot water demand. For very high-volume operations — large-scale banqueting, high-throughput cafeterias — it is worth considering whether a higher-capacity unit would better match the service requirement. Equally, for smaller or intermittent-use environments, a lower-output model may be more appropriate from an energy standpoint.
If you are unsure whether the H3 is the right match for your service volumes or setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£63.69(£76.43 inc VAT)
The FC02 is a replacement water filter cartridge designed for use with a range of commercial water boilers, including Lincat EB3F, EB4F, EB6F, EB6TF, and EB3F/PB models, as well as units supplied under various trade codes including J978, J979, J980, F934, DK882, DP498, GH184, GC719, DP495, GH183, DP496, DP497, DN984, and DN986. Its purpose is straightforward: to reduce scale-forming minerals in the incoming water supply before they reach the heating element and internal components of the boiler.
In commercial kitchens and hospitality environments, water boilers are frequently exposed to hard water, which accelerates limescale build-up on heating elements and in pipework. Left unchecked, this reduces energy efficiency, extends heat-up and recovery times, and shortens the serviceable life of the boiler. A filter cartridge in good condition helps protect the unit and maintain consistent output across busy service periods.
With a treatment capacity of up to 4000 litres, the FC02 is suited to moderate-use environments such as smaller cafés, staff canteens, or office catering points. Operators in high-throughput settings — hotel dining rooms, busy café bars, or large staff facilities — may find the cartridge requires more frequent replacement to maintain effective filtration, and should factor this into their maintenance planning.
Fitting is straightforward on compatible models, and regular cartridge replacement is one of the more cost-effective ways to protect a water boiler from the long-term effects of hard water. The replacement interval will depend on local water hardness and daily usage volume, so it is worth checking water quality data for your area when planning a maintenance schedule.
If you are unsure whether this cartridge is the correct fit for your boiler model, or if you would like guidance on filtration intervals based on your usage and water hardness, the team is happy to help before you order.
£196.00(£235.20 inc VAT)
This is a compact, plumbed-in automatic fill water boiler designed for low to moderate hot drinks demand. Unlike a manual-fill urn or countertop kettle, it connects directly to a mains cold water supply and refills itself continuously, maintaining a ready supply of near-boiling water without any staff intervention. The 8 litre capacity and slim 185mm-wide footprint make it a practical option where counter space is tight and demand is steady rather than intensive.
In day-to-day use, this boiler suits environments where hot drinks are served at a consistent but manageable pace throughout the day. A small independent café with a modest lunchtime trade, a workplace kitchen, a reception servery, or a meeting room point-of-service are all realistic fits. The output is sufficient for these settings, though operators expecting sustained high-volume demand — a busy staff canteen or large hospitality operation — may find throughput limiting during peak periods and should consider a higher-capacity unit.
The practical advantages for these environments are clear:
- Automatic refill removes the need for staff to monitor or top up water levels
- Slim profile makes it workable in tight counter runs or compact servery areas
- Simple front controls keep operation accessible for all staff
- Stainless steel construction supports a straightforward cleaning routine
- Constant availability of hot water reduces wait times during service
Installation requires a direct cold mains water connection and a standard 13A power supply. The auto fill function depends entirely on a plumbed water feed — this unit is not suitable for locations without plumbing access. In medium to hard water areas, fitting an inline scale filter and following a regular descaling routine is strongly advisable; scale accumulation will reduce both heating performance and the working life of the unit. At 7kg it handles without specialist equipment, but the water connection should be made by a competent plumber.
This boiler is well suited to lower-volume sites where a compact footprint and reliable self-sufficiency matter more than high throughput. For sites with larger teams to cater for or more demanding service patterns, a higher-capacity model would be worth discussing before committing.
If you are weighing up whether the output will match your service pattern, the team is happy to talk it through.
From £111.61(£133.93 inc VAT)
The Smeg KLF05 is a compact, double-walled electric kettle with an 800ml capacity, designed for settings where a full-sized kettle would be impractical or excessive. It is available in five colours: cream (KLF05CRUK), pastel blue (KLF05PBUK), pastel green (KLF05PGUK), pink (KLF05PKUK) and red (KLF05RDUK). Choose the colour above. The 800ml capacity is sufficient for around three cups, so it is built for individual or small-group use rather than bulk hot-water provision, and boiling only what is needed means less water and energy wasted per cycle.
The double-wall construction serves two practical purposes. The internal stainless steel lining retains heat for longer after boiling, which reduces the need to re-boil if there is a short delay before use, while the external wall stays cooler to the touch, reducing the risk of accidental contact burns where guests or members of the public may handle the unit. That makes it particularly relevant in hospitality settings where duty-of-care considerations apply.
- Cooler external wall reduces burn risk in guest-facing environments
- Double-wall insulation keeps water warmer between uses
- Compact 200mm footprint suits trays, desks and tight surface space in rooms or small offices
- 800ml capacity limits unnecessary water boiling and energy use
- Five colours to coordinate with Smeg's small appliance range and boutique or lifestyle interiors
There are no significant installation requirements: the kettle operates from a standard 13A socket, with no water connections or drainage. It is a domestic-grade, light-duty appliance and is not intended for continuous or high-frequency commercial use in busy kitchens, staff canteens or high-footfall break rooms. It is best understood as a guest amenity or low-demand office appliance, and suits hotel and B&B guest rooms, serviced apartments, small offices and staff rooms, motorhomes and caravans, and reception areas with light refreshment provision. If the setting demands higher throughput or more frequent daily boiling cycles, a full-capacity model or a commercial water boiler would be more appropriate.
If you are specifying this kettle across multiple guest rooms or as part of a wider hospitality fit-out, the team is happy to discuss quantities, finishes and suitability before you commit.
£2,514.00(£3,016.80 inc VAT)
The Zip HydroChill HC50 is a mains-fed undercounter water dispenser that delivers chilled and ambient water through a single surface-mounted tap. The chilling unit itself sits entirely out of sight beneath the counter, with the tap as the only element visible above the worksurface. It is designed specifically for installations where a clean, uncluttered front-of-house appearance is important.
In practice, this type of unit suits environments where a consistent, reliable supply of chilled drinking water is needed throughout service without staff having to manage bottled water or refill jugs. Because it connects directly to the mains cold water supply, it operates continuously and without interruption during busy periods. The brass tap fitting is well suited to regular front-of-house use and holds up well against the kind of daily handling expected in a hospitality environment.
Practical advantages for day-to-day operation include:
- Concealed undercounter installation keeps service areas tidy and professional
- Direct mains connection removes the need for bottled water management
- Consistent chilled water output without manual refilling or monitoring
- Tap-only visible footprint suits a range of counter aesthetics
- Compact unit makes use of existing undercounter space efficiently
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and a suitable power supply at the undercounter location. Adequate ventilation around the unit is necessary to allow heat to dissipate during operation. At 32kg, the unit is manageable for installation but the undercounter space needs to be reasonably accessible both at fitting and for any future servicing. It is worth confirming the available height and depth in your cabinetry before ordering, as clearances vary considerably between counter configurations.
The HC50 is a practical choice for cafés, hotel bars, restaurant front-of-house counters, and corporate hospitality settings where a permanently plumbed water point is preferred over bottled alternatives. It is best suited to low-to-medium draw-off requirements; for sites needing sparkling water capability or higher simultaneous demand, a more featured model within the range is worth considering.
If you would like to talk through whether this unit fits your installation or your service requirements, the team is here to help before you commit to an order.
£1,526.00(£1,831.20 inc VAT)
The Zip HydroChill 10 is a mains-fed, auto-fill water dispenser that delivers filtered chilled and ambient water on demand. It connects directly to your water supply, refills automatically, and dispenses through simple push-button controls. It is not a hot water boiler — this unit is designed specifically for cold and ambient filtered drinking water, making it a practical choice wherever staff or visitors need a consistent, clean water supply throughout the working day.
The auto-fill function means staff do not need to monitor or manually top up a reservoir, which is a genuine operational advantage in settings where footfall is steady and interruptions to routine add up. The 30 litre per hour output suits moderate-to-busy sites well — canteens, hotel back-of-house areas, office refreshment points, and staffrooms where demand runs continuously across a shift rather than arriving in sharp concurrent peaks. Sites with very high simultaneous demand should assess whether a higher-capacity unit would serve them better before committing.
Key practical advantages include:
- Auto-fill operation removes manual refilling from daily staff tasks
- Push-button dispensing is straightforward for all users
- Filtered output reduces scale build-up and improves drinking water quality
- Stainless steel construction supports straightforward daily cleaning
- Compact footprint keeps counter space available for other equipment
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and a suitable electrical supply. At 28kg the unit should be positioned on a stable, level surface capable of bearing that load. Allow adequate clearance behind the unit for pipework and airflow. It is worth confirming that your incoming water pressure falls within the manufacturer's specified range before installation — this is particularly relevant in older buildings where mains pressure can vary.
The HydroChill 10 is well suited to offices, schools, hospitality back-of-house areas, and similar environments where a reliable, low-maintenance supply of filtered drinking water is needed across a full working day. For sites that also require hot water, or where concurrent demand is higher, a multi-function or higher-output unit may be worth exploring.
If you are working out whether the output matches your daily user numbers, or want to confirm the connection requirements before purchase, the team is glad to talk it through with you.
£1,234.00(£1,480.80 inc VAT)
The Zip HydroBoil Classic is a compact, wall-mounted unit that delivers a continuous supply of near-boiling water on demand. Rather than cycling through a kettle, it maintains a ready supply at a consistent output temperature throughout the day, making it a practical choice for environments where hot drinks or instant food preparation are a regular but moderate requirement.
In use, the unit performs reliably in settings where demand is steady rather than intense. A staffroom serving a shift workforce, a small café drinks counter, a care home beverage station, or a hospitality suite are all realistic applications. The two-way tap locks open for hands-free filling of larger vessels, which reduces handling during a busy service window. The enamelled steel housing is straightforward to wipe down and holds up well to the daily cleaning routines common in commercial and semi-commercial environments.
The practical advantages for operators in these settings include:
- On-demand hot water eliminates kettle wait times throughout the day
- Wall-mounted installation keeps worktop space clear for other tasks
- Locks-open tap allows hands-free filling of carafes or larger containers
- Consistent output temperature removes the variability of repeated kettle boiling
- Enamelled steel housing is durable and easy to clean between services
Installation requires a mains cold water feed and a suitable electrical supply. The unit is wall-mounted, so adequate fixings and proximity to both plumbing and electrical connections are important to confirm before ordering. At 7.8kg it is manageable to position, but fitting should be carried out by a qualified plumber and electrician to meet compliance requirements.
This model is well suited to low-to-moderate demand environments — offices, small hospitality operations, care homes, and front-of-house drinks stations where hot water is needed throughout the day at a measured pace. It is not intended to support rapid, high-volume output in a busy production kitchen. Where a site requires greater throughput or longer sustained service periods, a higher-capacity unit would be worth considering.
If you would like to talk through whether this capacity is the right fit for your operation, we are glad to help before you place an order.
£1,440.00(£1,728.00 inc VAT)
The Zip HydroBoil Classic is a wall-mounted instant boiling water unit designed to provide a continuous, on-demand supply of near-boiling water without the wait or supervision associated with a conventional kettle or urn. The 5-litre tank heats and holds water at temperature throughout the day, ready to dispense at the turn of a tap whenever it is needed.
In practice, this type of unit performs reliably in settings with a steady but moderate demand — staff canteens, office catering facilities, smaller cafés, hospitality back-of-house areas, and similar environments where consistent access to hot water matters but peak throughput is not extreme. Because the water is held at temperature continuously, there is no recovery delay between individual servings during normal use, though sites with near-continuous or high-volume demand would be better served by a larger-capacity unit.
From an operational standpoint, the HydroBoil Classic offers a number of practical advantages over traditional kettles or standalone urns:
- Instant boiling water on demand, with no re-boiling or monitoring required
- Wall-mounted installation keeps worktops clear and uncluttered
- External two-way tap with fingertip control for quick cup filling
- Tap locks on for hands-free filling of pots or larger vessels
- Enamelled steel body is straightforward to wipe down and keep clean
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and a suitable electrical supply — both should be handled by qualified tradespeople. The wall mounting needs a sound, load-bearing surface with adequate clearance below the tap for comfortable dispensing. The compact dimensions mean it will fit neatly into most service areas without significantly disrupting the existing layout.
This unit is well suited to lower-volume commercial sites and welfare facilities where reliable access to boiling water is important but demand is moderate. For larger operations or high-footfall catering environments where throughput requirements are greater, a higher-capacity model would be a more appropriate choice.
If you are working out whether the 5-litre capacity is the right fit for your site's daily demand, we are happy to talk it through before you place an order.
£131.00(£157.20 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 20-litre manual-fill water boiler is a countertop hot water unit designed for continuous tea and coffee service in commercial and semi-commercial settings. It heats and holds water at a consistent serving temperature, ready to draw from throughout a service period without requiring a plumbed water supply.
The double-walled, insulated construction is the most operationally significant aspect of this boiler. By retaining heat more effectively than a single-skinned unit, it draws less energy to maintain temperature between draws — a meaningful consideration for any site running a boiler across a full day. A clear water level gauge makes it straightforward to monitor fill levels and top up before levels drop too low, which matters for maintaining flow during a busy service.
From an operational standpoint, this unit suits settings where hot water demand is steady but not extreme:
- Matte black finish resists fingerprints and keeps front-of-house presentation clean
- Concealed element simplifies descaling and reduces scale build-up on exposed components
- Smooth stainless steel interior wipes down quickly between services
- External thermal safety reset provides boil-dry protection without requiring disassembly
- Non-slip feet provide stability on countertops in environments where surfaces may vibrate
This is a manual-fill boiler, so it requires no plumbing connection — it can be positioned wherever a standard 13-amp socket is available. That makes it well suited to village halls, mobile catering setups, guesthouses, offices, and staff rooms where a permanent water line is not practical. The 20-litre capacity is a reasonable fit for low-to-moderate volume service; sites with higher throughput or continuous back-to-back demand across a large team may find a higher-capacity unit more appropriate.
If you are unsure whether this size suits your service pattern, or you are weighing up manual-fill against plumbed options, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
£141.00(£169.20 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 40Ltr Matt Black Water Boiler is a manually filled countertop boiler designed to provide a continuous supply of hot water for tea, coffee and other hot beverage service. The double-walled, insulated construction is the defining feature here — it retains heat far more effectively than single-skinned alternatives, which directly reduces how often the element needs to cycle on to maintain temperature.
In practice, this makes the unit well suited to environments where the boiler is on throughout the day but demand is steady rather than intense — think guesthouses, B&Bs, village halls, office kitchens, and staff rooms. It handles a consistent flow of hot drinks service comfortably without the energy waste associated with a boiler that's constantly reheating from a poorly insulated shell. For very high-volume or continuous hospitality service, a larger or pressurised unit may be more appropriate.
The matt black finish is a practical choice for front-of-house or counter placement — it shows fewer fingerprints than a polished stainless surface and sits unobtrusively in most settings. Operationally, the unit offers several day-to-day advantages:
- Double-walled insulation reduces energy consumption compared to single-skinned boilers
- Concealed element simplifies descaling, which matters in hard water areas
- Clear water level gauge allows quick visual checks without lifting the lid
- Smooth stainless steel interior wipes down quickly between cleans
- External thermal safety reset protects against boil-dry damage
Installation is straightforward — the unit is freestanding, sits on non-slip feet, and connects to a standard plug socket. There is no plumbed water inlet; filling is manual, so no pipework is required. This keeps placement flexible but does mean monitoring water levels is part of the daily routine. It's worth considering whether your site's water hardness will affect descaling frequency.
This boiler is a practical choice for lower-volume sites where all-day availability matters more than rapid high-volume throughput. If you're unsure whether it's the right capacity for your operation, or if you're considering a plumbed alternative, the team is happy to talk through the options with you.

The Host 10-litre manual fill water boiler is a straightforward hot water dispenser designed for locations where a mains water connection is either unavailable or impractical. Rather than plumbing in, you fill the unit by hand, bring it up to temperature, and dispense through a front-mounted non-drip tap. It is a simple, reliable solution for a specific set of circumstances.
In terms of day-to-day performance, this type of boiler suits modest, steady demand rather than continuous high-volume service. It is well suited to staff rooms, meeting rooms, hospitality suites, mobile catering setups, and event venues where hot water is needed intermittently throughout the day. The concealed heating element helps reduce direct limescale contact, which makes routine descaling somewhat less involved than on older exposed-element designs.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- No plumbing required — positions anywhere a standard 13A socket is available
- Non-drip tap reduces mess and waste during busy service periods
- Stainless steel construction supports straightforward cleaning and day-to-day hygiene
- Adjustable temperature control suits tea, coffee, and specialist hot drinks
- Portable enough to relocate between rooms or areas as required
Because it is manually filled, operators should consider how frequently refilling will be needed relative to their service demands. For a small office kitchen or a meeting room serving ten to fifteen people at a time, a 10-litre capacity is generally adequate. For a busier hospitality operation or a kitchen running continuous hot drink service, a plumbed-in boiler or a higher-capacity unit is likely to be a more practical long-term choice.
This model runs from a standard single-phase supply, so no specialist electrical installation is required. It is not intended for continuous commercial kitchen line use, but performs reliably in the back-of-house and front-of-house support roles it is designed for.
If you are weighing up whether this capacity suits your operation, or whether a plumbed alternative would serve you better, we are happy to talk it through.
£131.00(£157.20 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 30-litre water boiler is a manually filled, countertop unit designed to provide a continuous hot water supply for tea and coffee service. The matt black finish gives it a presentable appearance in front-of-house or service counter settings, where a conventional stainless-steel boiler might look out of place.
The double-walled, insulated construction is the defining practical feature here. By retaining heat more effectively than single-skinned alternatives, the boiler draws significantly less energy to maintain temperature during extended service periods. For venues where the boiler runs throughout the day — a café, a guesthouse breakfast service, a staffed office kitchen — that reduction in standby energy draw adds up meaningfully over time. The clear water level gauge allows staff to monitor fill levels at a glance and refill before service drops off.
From an operational standpoint, this boiler suits environments where hot water demand is steady but not extreme:
- Matt black finish reduces visible fingerprints in front-of-house positions
- Concealed heating element simplifies descaling and daily cleaning
- Smooth stainless steel interior wipes down quickly between services
- External thermal safety reset protects against boil-dry damage
- Non-slip feet provide stable placement on countertops
Being a manual-fill unit, it requires no plumbed water connection, which makes it straightforward to position anywhere with a suitable power supply. That flexibility suits village halls, mobile catering setups, event spaces, and smaller hospitality venues that lack a convenient mains water feed at the counter. It is worth noting that for sites with higher or continuous hot water demand, a plumbed or larger-capacity boiler may be a more practical fit.
This boiler is well suited to B&Bs, guesthouses, offices, staff rooms, and smaller catering operations where reliable hot water for beverages is needed through the day without the complexity of a plumbed installation. If you are unsure whether the capacity suits your service volume or whether a manual-fill model is the right choice for your setup, the team is happy to talk it through.
£124.00(£148.80 inc VAT)
The Buffalo 10-litre manual-fill water boiler is a countertop unit designed to provide a reliable supply of hot water for tea and coffee service. It fills by hand, heats the water, and holds it at temperature ready for use — straightforward in function, and built to a commercial rather than domestic standard.
The double-walled, insulated stainless steel construction is the defining feature here. By retaining heat more effectively than single-skinned alternatives, the boiler draws significantly less energy to maintain water temperature during service periods. For sites running a boiler throughout the day, that difference in running cost is worth accounting for. A clear water level gauge removes the guesswork when refilling, and the concealed heating element simplifies descaling — an important consideration in hard water areas where limescale builds quickly.
From an operational standpoint, the unit suits environments where demand is moderate and consistent rather than high-volume or unpredictable:
- Matt black finish reduces visible fingerprints in front-of-house or self-service settings
- Smooth stainless steel interior wipes down quickly between services
- External thermal safety reset protects against boil-dry damage
- Non-slip feet provide stability on countertops without fixings
- Manual fill suits sites without a plumbed water connection nearby
Installation is simple — the unit runs from a standard mains socket and requires no plumbing. It sits on a countertop and needs no extraction. The 10-litre capacity suits lighter service situations well, but operators running busy or continuous service periods should consider whether a larger-capacity model would better match their throughput requirements.
This boiler is well suited to B&Bs, guesthouses, village halls, office kitchens, staff rooms, and mobile catering operations where a dependable hot water supply is needed without the complexity of a plumbed-in system. It is not intended for high-volume hospitality environments where demand would consistently outpace a 10-litre capacity.
If you are unsure whether this capacity is right for your service pattern, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£2,021.00(£2,425.20 inc VAT)
The BRITA Vivreau Top PRO 50 is a mains-fed, filtered water dispenser designed for commercial and hospitality environments where consistent, high-quality water service is required throughout the day. It dispenses both chilled and ambient still water, and the brushed stainless steel construction is built to hold up in demanding settings such as hotel dining rooms, staff canteens, and catering back-of-house operations.
In busy service periods, the unit's automated SmoothFinishing function is a practical asset. It fills bottles or glasses to a set level and stops automatically, which means staff do not need to monitor each fill individually. For operations that bottle water ahead of service or refill glassware at volume during peak hours, this reduces both spillage and the time staff spend at the dispenser.
Key operational benefits include:
- Automated fill stops improve consistency and reduce spillage during service
- Chilled and ambient outputs cover a range of service preferences
- Thermal Gate Hygiene Technology keeps the tap outlet sanitised passively
- Stainless steel finish withstands regular use in high-traffic environments
- Flexible siting as a countertop or freestanding unit
The Thermal Gate Hygiene Technology is particularly relevant in food service settings. The system automatically heats the tap outlet to above 125°C at regular intervals to prevent microbial build-up at the point of dispense. This operates without manual intervention and is a meaningful consideration for operators with food hygiene obligations or those serving vulnerable populations.
Installation requires a mains water connection and a suitable power supply. At 33kg the unit has a reasonable footprint, but placement should be planned with access in mind — both for daily use and for periodic filter changes and servicing. BRITA's integral filtration system will require ongoing filter maintenance, and this should be factored into planned servicing schedules and running costs from the outset.
The PRO 50 is well suited to mid-to-large canteens, hotel and conference catering, staff dining facilities, and hospitality venues where filtered water is a consistent part of daily service. For sites with very high concurrent demand or large-scale bottling requirements, a higher-output model may be worth considering. For smaller or lower-frequency operations, a more compact unit may be a better fit.
If you'd like to talk through whether the PRO 50 suits your site's demand and setup before going ahead, our team is happy to help.
£4,405.00(£5,286.00 inc VAT)
The BRITA Vivreau Fill 200 is a mains-fed water dispenser that delivers four water types — ambient, chilled still, sparkling, and semi-sparkling — from a single countertop unit finished in brushed stainless steel. It is positioned at the higher-capacity end of the Vivreau Fill range and is designed for environments where water service is continuous and volume matters.
In practice, the Fill 200 is built to handle sustained demand across a full service period without a noticeable drop in output. The SmoothFinishing function fills bottles and glasses automatically to the correct level, which means staff can initiate a pour and move on rather than standing over the unit. In a busy hospitality or canteen setting, that kind of operational detail adds up quickly across a shift.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the main advantages are:
- Four water types from one unit, reducing the need for multiple dispensing points
- Automatic fill function cuts spills, waste, and the staff time spent monitoring pours
- Mains-fed operation removes the ongoing cost and handling associated with bottled water
- Brushed stainless steel finish is practical in high-traffic areas and straightforward to wipe down
- Countertop configuration suits both back-of-house bottling stations and front-of-house service points
Installation requires a mains water connection and a dedicated power supply. At 40kg, this is a substantial unit and positioning should be planned carefully — both for access during installation and for workflow once it is in place. Sites with very high peak demand across multiple service points should consider whether a single unit will adequately cover the whole operation.
The Fill 200 is well suited to staff restaurants, hotel dining, workplace catering, and event hospitality — anywhere a high number of covers expects consistent water service throughout the day. It is also a practical fit for operations looking to move away from commercially bottled water entirely.
If you are working out the right configuration for your site or have questions about installation requirements, the team is glad to talk it through with you beforehand.
£4,341.00(£5,209.20 inc VAT)
The BRITA Vivreau Fill 200 is a mains-fed water dispenser that delivers four water types from a single unit: ambient still, chilled still, semi-sparkling and sparkling. Available in countertop, freestanding and tap configurations, it is built for commercial environments where water service runs continuously throughout the day rather than intermittently. The stainless steel housing is practical in front-of-house and back-of-house settings alike, and this listing includes the integrated drip tray.
The Fill 200 is designed for sites with sustained demand — hotel dining rooms, staff canteens, back-of-house bottling stations and catering preparation areas are typical placements. The SmoothFinishing function fills bottles and glasses automatically to a pre-set level, which reduces overflow and keeps service moving without requiring constant staff attention. For operations running high cover counts or supplying multiple service points, the capacity of this unit supports consistent output where lower-specification dispensers can struggle under load.
From an operational standpoint, the Fill 200 offers a number of practical advantages:
- Four water types from one unit, reducing reliance on bottled water stock
- Automatic fill function reduces waste and frees staff during busy service periods
- Stainless steel finish is straightforward to clean and supports hygiene routines
- Flexible installation formats accommodate different layout requirements
- Integrated drip tray keeps the work surface clean during high-volume use
Installation requires a mains water connection and a suitable power supply; the specific requirements will vary by configuration, so it is worth confirming these with your installer before committing to a location. At 40kg, the unit is substantial — countertop installations in particular should account for surface load capacity before fitting. BRITA filtration is integral to the system, and filter replacement schedules should be built into the site's maintenance planning from the outset.
The Fill 200 is well suited to mid-to-large canteens, hotel and restaurant operations, catering companies and workplace hospitality environments currently using bottled water at scale. Smaller operations with modest daily demand may find a more compact unit is sufficient, while very high-volume or multi-outlet sites may benefit from discussing whether a single unit will cover peak service or whether additional capacity would be more appropriate.
If you would like to talk through your site's water service volumes and installation setup before making a decision, our team is available to help.
£4,449.00(£5,338.80 inc VAT)
The BRITA Vivreau Fill 200 is a mains-fed water dispenser that delivers ambient, chilled, and sparkling water from a single countertop unit. Built in brushed stainless steel, it sits at the higher-output end of the Vivreau Fill range and is designed for commercial environments where consistent, high-volume water service is required throughout the day.
In busy service settings — hotel dining rooms, staff canteens, event catering operations, and large hospitality venues — the Fill 200 handles continuous demand without the interruption of bottle changes or the logistics of maintaining a bottled water supply. Its SmoothFinishing function stops dispensing automatically once a vessel reaches the correct fill level, which reduces spillage and frees staff to focus elsewhere during high-throughput service periods. That kind of passive accuracy matters when a team is stretched across multiple tasks simultaneously.
The key operational advantages are practical rather than incidental:
- Three water types from one unit, removing the need for bottled water stock
- Auto-fill function reduces waste and minimises staff supervision at the dispenser
- Brushed stainless steel finish withstands daily commercial use and wipes down easily
- Mains-fed operation eliminates the cost and handling of bottled water logistics
- Flexible configuration options accommodate different counter and floor layouts
Installation requires a mains water connection, a power supply, and a drain line — this is not a standalone plug-and-use unit, and plumbing work will be required. The countertop configuration needs a stable surface rated to support the unit's 42kg weight. BRITA's filtration is built into the system, so filter replacement schedules and associated running costs should be planned for from the outset, not treated as an afterthought.
The Fill 200 is well suited to medium-to-large catering operations where chilled and sparkling water service is a regular part of the offer. Smaller or lower-footfall sites may find a reduced-capacity model in the same range more proportionate. For very large venues or operations requiring multiple simultaneous service points, it is worth assessing whether a single unit will comfortably meet peak demand before specifying.
If you have questions about output requirements, installation feasibility, or which configuration would work best in your space, the team is glad to talk it through with you.
£500.00(£600.00 inc VAT)
The Bravilor HWA 12 is a countertop hot water boiler built for commercial beverage service. It holds 12 litres and is available in either manual fill or fixed auto-fill configuration, making it practical for both permanent counter installations and temporary or event-based setups where a fixed water connection is not available. The double-walled stainless steel vessel retains heat efficiently, holding water at serving temperature without continuous energy draw.
In a working service environment, the HWA 12 suits tea and hot beverage stations, hotel breakfast counters, hospitality buffet points, and office catering areas where a reliable supply of near-boiling water is needed across a shift. The orange temperature button brings water directly to boiling point on demand — useful when service volume picks up quickly. During quieter periods, the built-in ECO function reduces the active volume, cutting unnecessary energy use when full capacity is not required. This variable-demand behaviour is genuinely practical for sites where footfall is uneven across the day.
- ECO mode reduces active volume during low-demand periods, lowering energy consumption
- Manual fill configuration requires no plumbing — suitable for off-site or event use
- Auto-fill mode connects to a fixed cold water supply for hands-free operation
- Double-walled vessel minimises heat loss between service periods
- Straightforward to descale and maintain as part of routine cleaning schedules
For the manual fill version, no plumbing work is required at all. The auto-fill configuration needs a standard cold water connection, so it is worth confirming access to a suitable supply point before installation. The unit runs from a standard 13A socket, though placement relative to an appropriate outlet should be checked during planning.
The HWA 12 is a sensible fit for cafés, hotel breakfast services, staff catering points, and similar environments with moderate, variable hot water demand. It is not intended for continuous high-throughput production use. For sites with significantly higher or sustained demand, a larger-capacity boiler would be a more appropriate choice.
If you would like to talk through whether the HWA 12 is the right match for your service volume or installation setup, the team is happy to help.
£1,043.00(£1,251.60 inc VAT)
The Bravilor Eco HWA 21 is a countertop hot water boiler designed for continuous dispensing in commercial environments. It holds just over 20 litres of heated water and is fitted with a free-flow manual tap, allowing operators to dispense directly into cups, mugs, jugs, or decanters without portion controls or automatic triggers. The three-phase electrical supply makes it suitable for sites where three-phase power is already available and where reliable recovery under sustained demand is a practical priority.
In a busy service environment, a unit like this justifies its place when hot water demand is consistent rather than occasional. High-turnover breakfast service, staffed beverage stations, or front-of-house tea service where a kettle simply cannot keep pace are all natural fits. The 20-litre capacity supports a meaningful run of drinks before recovery becomes a consideration, and the free-flow tap gives staff quick, uninterrupted access without waiting on a metered cycle.
From an operational standpoint, the manual tap design is straightforward to use and clean. There are no complex programmes or touchscreens to maintain, which generally means fewer faults and less staff training time. Key practical advantages include:
- Free-flow dispensing accommodates variable vessel sizes without reconfiguration
- Steel construction handles the wear and pace of a busy service counter
- Simple tap mechanism reduces maintenance complexity and training overhead
- Countertop footprint keeps the unit accessible without requiring dedicated floor space
- Three-phase supply supports rapid recovery between high-demand service periods
The unit requires a three-phase electrical supply — it is not compatible with a standard single-phase socket — so it is worth confirming your available supply before ordering. It connects via a three-quarter inch water inlet and can be used with or without a direct mains connection depending on your setup. The countertop footprint is worth measuring against your available workspace, particularly where the unit sits alongside other equipment on a service counter.
The HWA 21 is well suited to hotels, staff canteens, cafés, and event catering operations where a reliable, uncomplicated hot water supply is needed at volume. For smaller operations with lighter or less frequent demand, a lower-capacity single-phase model is likely a more proportionate choice. For very high-volume sites running extended service periods, it is worth considering whether a larger or plumbed-through unit would better match the throughput required.
If you would like to talk through whether the HWA 21 is the right match for your service volume or electrical setup, the team is happy to help you work it out before you commit.
£888.00(£1,065.60 inc VAT)
The Bravilor Eco HWA 14 is a countertop hot water boiler designed for continuous hot water dispensing in commercial beverage service. Built by Bravilor Bonamat in a compact steel housing, it holds just over 13 litres and is available with either manual or automatic fill, making it straightforward to fit into most counter configurations regardless of whether a plumbed supply is available at the point of use.
In service, the unit performs well under steady, moderate-volume demand. It is commonly used during hotel breakfast service, across café counters, and at staffed hospitality points where hot water for tea, infusions, and catering pourers is required consistently throughout the day. The free-flow tap allows operators to dispense exactly the volume needed without being constrained by a fixed portion size, which keeps service moving across different cup and vessel sizes. Recovery is handled reliably under typical continuous draw-off, and the unit maintains consistent water temperature throughout service periods.
Practical advantages for day-to-day operation include:
- Free-flow tap dispenses any volume cleanly, reducing waste and overfill
- Manual or auto fill options suit both plumbed and non-plumbed counter positions
- Compact steel housing fits within standard counter footprints without consuming significant workspace
- Consistent water temperature supports quality and repeatability across beverage service
- Simple construction keeps routine descaling and maintenance straightforward
Installation is uncomplicated. The unit runs from a standard mains electrical connection and has no gas or ventilation requirements. If the auto fill variant is selected, a plumbed cold water supply will be needed at the counter position. At 10kg, it is easily repositioned if the counter layout changes. It is worth noting that for very high-volume sites — large banqueting operations or high-throughput canteens drawing heavily and continuously — a higher-capacity boiler would be a more appropriate choice.
The HWA 14 is well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast and lounge areas, smaller staff restaurants, and hospitality counters where reliable hot water availability matters but demand is steady rather than extreme. For sites with lighter, less frequent requirements, a smaller-capacity model in the same range may be sufficient and more economical to run.
If you would like to talk through whether this unit is the right match for your expected service volume or counter setup, the team is glad to help before you decide.
£479.00(£574.80 inc VAT)
The Bravilor HWA 8 is a countertop hot water boiler designed to provide a consistent, on-demand supply of hot water in commercial and hospitality environments. Built around a double-walled stainless steel vessel, it can be configured for either manual fill or plumbed auto-fill operation, which gives it reasonable flexibility across different service settings.
In practice, the HWA 8 is suited to moderate-volume service points rather than high-throughput catering lines. The insulated double-walled construction retains heat between draws, reducing the energy needed to maintain temperature across quieter periods. The ECO function addresses this further by reducing the active heated volume during low-demand periods, so the unit is not continuously heating water that is not required. When demand picks up, the boost function brings the water back to boiling point quickly, giving staff a simple and intuitive control without unnecessary complexity.
From an operational standpoint, the HWA 8 offers a number of practical advantages:
- ECO mode reduces energy consumption during quieter service periods
- Manual fill with integrated handles makes the unit practical for event or mobile catering use
- Auto-fill mode supports a permanent plumbed counter installation with no manual intervention
- Double-walled insulation maintains serving temperature between draws
- Designed with straightforward access for routine descaling and maintenance
Installation is straightforward in either configuration. In manual fill mode, only a standard power connection is needed — no plumbing — which makes the HWA 8 a practical option for temporary setups, event catering, or locations where a water supply is not readily accessible at the counter. In auto-fill mode, a cold mains water feed is required. At 10kg, the unit is manageable on a counter, though it is worth confirming that the surface can take the loaded weight. Ventilation demands are minimal compared with larger boiling water equipment.
The HWA 8 is well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast stations, staff canteens, and hospitality service points where reliable hot water is needed without the footprint or output of a larger boiler. If your operation runs at higher volume, requires continuous draw throughout a full service, or serves a large number of covers, a higher-capacity model would be worth exploring.
If you are weighing up whether the HWA 8 fits your setup, or whether a different capacity would serve you better, the team is glad to talk it through before you decide.
£1,043.00(£1,251.60 inc VAT)
The Bravilor Eco HWA 21 is a plumbed or tank-fill hot water boiler designed for continuous dispensing in commercial service environments. Built around a manual free-flow tap, it allows staff to draw off precisely the volume required — whether filling a single cup, a large mug, a teapot, or a catering decanter — without being locked into a fixed portion size. It runs on a single phase supply, which keeps the installation straightforward for the majority of commercial premises.
With just over 20 litres of stored capacity, the HWA 21 handles sustained demand without staff waiting on full recovery between each draw. During breakfast service, a lunch rush, or any period where hot water is needed consistently, the stored volume provides a practical buffer that keeps service moving. It is designed for sites where simplicity and reliability at the point of use matter more than fully automated or touchscreen-controlled dispensing.
From an operational standpoint, the HWA 21 offers several practical advantages:
- Free-flow tap dispenses any volume without fixed portion constraints
- Operates plumbed to mains or via manual fill where a water connection is unavailable
- Steel construction stands up to regular daily use in commercial environments
- Compact counter footprint suits cafés, canteens, and hospitality service areas
- Single phase supply avoids the need for specialist electrical provision on most sites
Installation requires a suitable single phase electrical supply and, where plumbing directly, a 3/4 inch mains water connection. The tank-fill option gives some flexibility in placement where a permanent water feed is not available. At 12kg, the unit is manageable for counter positioning, though the location should allow comfortable and safe access to the tap during busy periods. Consider access for routine descaling, which is a routine maintenance task in areas with hard water.
The HWA 21 is well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast operations, staff canteens, hospitality back-of-house areas, and similar settings with moderate but steady hot water demand. Where a site runs multiple service points simultaneously or operates at significantly higher throughput, a higher-capacity model within the range may be worth considering.
If you would like to talk through whether the HWA 21 fits your service volumes and site setup, the team is glad to help before you go ahead.
£984.00(£1,180.80 inc VAT)
The Bravilor HWA 14D is a mains-fed, auto-fill hot water boiler designed for continuous hot beverage service in commercial environments. It connects directly to the cold water supply and maintains a ready volume of heated water without any manual refilling. Two programmable push-button controls allow preset portion dispensing, with a free-flow option for larger vessels such as teapots or catering jugs. The result is a unit that can support steady front-of-house or back-of-house service with minimal operator involvement.
In practice, the auto-fill design makes this unit well suited to sites where demand is consistent but not always predictable. Hotel breakfast service, café counters, staff canteens, and hospitality suites are typical settings where this kind of boiler earns its place. Recovery between draws is reliable, keeping water at temperature during sustained service without significant lag. One practical point worth noting: the tap height is relatively modest, which suits standard cups and mugs dispensed directly beneath the tap. If your service regularly involves tall travel cups or filling from below into larger vessels, it is worth checking that clearance works for your setup before installation.
Key operational advantages include:
- Programmable portion buttons reduce over-dispensing and support consistent service
- Auto-fill eliminates manual top-up, freeing staff attention during busy periods
- Free-flow mode gives flexibility for teapots, larger mugs, or catering jugs
- Compact steel-bodied construction suits counter use in tighter service areas
- Mains-fed supply means no reliance on staff remembering to refill
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and a 13A electrical supply. As a countertop unit, plumbing access beneath or beside the counter will be needed, and it is worth confirming the inlet and overflow connections can be properly routed before the unit goes into service. At 10kg, positioning and connecting the unit is straightforward for a competent installer.
The HWA 14D is a practical choice for small to medium volume sites — cafés, offices, hotel breakfast areas, and similar front-of-house service points where steady but moderate hot water demand is the norm. For higher-volume or larger-scale operations, a unit with greater capacity may be more appropriate. Equally, if demand is low or intermittent, a smaller model in the same range may be more economical to run.
If you would like to talk through whether this unit is the right fit for your service volume or want to check the plumbing requirements before committing, the team is happy to work through the details with you.
£872.00(£1,046.40 inc VAT)
The Bravilor HWA 6D is a mains-fed, auto-fill hot water boiler designed for continuous beverage service in commercial settings. It draws directly from a plumbed cold water supply to keep the reservoir topped up automatically, removing the need for manual filling and reducing the risk of running dry during busy service. Two programmable push-button controls allow operators to set repeatable portion sizes for different vessel types, with a free-flow option available for larger mugs or bulk dispensing.
In practice, this type of boiler suits operations where hot water demand is steady and predictable throughout the day. Hotel breakfast buffets, café counters, staff canteens, and front-of-house beverage stations are all common environments where the auto-fill function earns its keep — particularly when staff are managing multiple tasks simultaneously and cannot monitor water levels manually. The tap height comfortably accommodates standard cups and mugs without awkward positioning.
Key operational advantages include:
- Programmable portion buttons reduce waste and support consistent, repeatable service
- Auto-fill eliminates manual top-up during service periods
- Free-flow option suits larger vessels or catering-volume dispensing
- Compact steel construction suits counter or shelf installation where space is limited
- Portion control helps manage costs across high-volume beverage service
Installation requires a mains cold water connection and an appropriate electrical supply. The unit should be positioned with sufficient clearance at the rear for the water feed and to allow routine descaling access. In hard water areas, regular descaling will be necessary to protect the heating element and maintain consistent performance — the frequency will depend on local water hardness, so it is worth factoring this into a maintenance routine from the outset.
The HWA 6D is well suited to small and medium operations with consistent hot water demand across a single service point. Sites with significantly higher throughput, multiple dispensing points, or extended service periods may find a larger-capacity model better matched to their needs. Where a plumbed connection is not practical, a manually filled alternative may be a more straightforward fit.
If you would like to talk through whether this model suits your service setup, the team is glad to help before you make a decision.
