The operation of the Quooker
The Quooker system consists of a small tank under the sink which is connected
to the boiling-water tap. This tank is connected to the water by a so-called inlet
combination. The water is heated electrically to approx. 110°C and is kept at
this temperature. When boiling water is drawn off, cold water flows into the
tank at the same time and is automatically heated. Before the water leaves the
tank it is purified by the HiTAC
®
water filter (High Temperature Activated
Carbon). If the entire content is used in one go the heating time is ten to
twenty minutes, depending on the electrical power (see technical specifications).
Different tanks are available: the ST-VAQ (800 W), the PRO3-VAQ (1600 W) and
the PRO7-VAQ (3200 W). All Quooker taps are fitted with a childproof
push-and-turn control knob and are also vertically adjustable and insulated.
Installation, maintenance and warranty
The Quooker can be installed wherever there is a water supply and a socket.
The Quooker comes with a handy installation kit (including the required inlet
combination) for easy fitting, and is maintenance-free. The HiTAC
®
filter
cartridge has to be replaced about once every three years, when any lime scale
that has built is also removed from the tank. The manufacturer gives a two-year
warranty on the entire system.
