Instanta CTS10 10 Litre Mains-Fed Counter Top Water Boiler
£501.00(£601.20 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Instanta CTS10 is a mains-fed, auto-fill counter top water boiler with a 10-litre capacity. Rather than relying on manual filling, it connects directly to a cold water supply and replenishes continuously, keeping the unit ready throughout service without requiring staff attention. Hot water is dispensed through a single tap, which keeps operation simple whether the unit is positioned front-of-house or in a back-of-house prep area.
In practice, this size of boiler suits operations with a steady, moderate demand — a café during a mid-morning rush, a workplace canteen across a lunch sitting, or a hospitality team servicing meeting rooms through the day. The continuous auto-fill means recovery is ongoing rather than in batches, which helps maintain consistent output during periods of sustained use. The Incoloy heating element is a well-established choice in commercial water boilers, offering better resistance to scale than standard elements — a meaningful consideration in hard water areas where element longevity is a common maintenance concern.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the key advantages are:
- Auto-fill removes the need for staff to monitor or top up the unit during service
- Single-tap dispensing is straightforward and consistent under steady demand
- Incoloy element performs reliably in hard water areas and typically lasts longer before replacement
- Built-in self-diagnostics flag faults early, helping to avoid unplanned downtime
- Removable stainless steel drip tray makes end-of-day cleaning quick and easy
Installation is straightforward for most sites. The unit runs from a standard 13-amp plug and is supplied with cable, so no dedicated electrical circuit is required. A mains cold water connection nearby is essential — the CTS10 is not suited to locations without a plumbed supply. It is worth confirming available counter space and access to a suitable waste point for the drip tray before finalising the position.
The CTS10 is well suited to cafés, smaller hotel beverage stations, workplace kitchens, and catering prep areas where a reliable plumbed hot water supply is needed without the footprint of a larger undercounter or wall-mounted unit. For very high-volume operations — a busy hotel breakfast service or a large-scale catering kitchen with continuous heavy demand — a higher-capacity model is likely to be a better fit.
If you would like to talk through whether the CTS10 matches your service volumes or have any questions about the plumbing requirements for your site, the team is happy to work through the details with you.
Frequently asked questions
Is the CTS10 suitable for a busy café with high hot drink volumes?
The CTS10 is well matched to cafés with a steady, moderate throughput — mid-morning rushes, lunch sittings, and similar patterns of consistent but not extreme demand. If your operation runs continuous back-to-back service with very high volumes for extended periods, it is worth considering a higher-capacity unit to ensure output keeps pace comfortably.
What plumbing and electrical connections does the CTS10 require?
The unit connects directly to a mains cold water supply, so a plumbed connection nearby is essential — it cannot be used as a manually filled boiler. On the electrical side, it runs from a standard 13-amp plug socket, so no specialist wiring or dedicated circuit is needed. You will also want a nearby waste point for the drip tray.
How does the Incoloy element make a practical difference in daily use?
Incoloy is a nickel-based alloy that resists scale build-up more effectively than standard elements, which matters particularly in hard water areas where limescale is an ongoing concern. In commercial use, this typically translates to a longer service life before element replacement is needed and more consistent heating performance over time.
