FAQs

What are common problems with Quooker taps? ›

A Quooker is easy to maintain which increases its longevity. Our taps typically last between fifteen and twenty years and all of our systems are maintained by a dedicated team guaranteeing a prompt and reliable service.

For hygienic reasons, the cartridge should be replaced every 12 months, regardless of the amount of water used.

If the light ring is flashing, the tank is not heating the water and will require a reset. To reset the system, switch off the tank via the Q-shaped on/off switch on the top, wait a couple of minutes and then switch it on again. If it continues to flash, please contact the manufacturer.

Most homeowners are wary of high energy bills regarding electrical appliances. The good news is that the hot water tap is tremendously energy efficient. You will use more power with your electric kettle than with a Quooker. A Quooker tap depends on a tank to keep the hot water in supply.

It may ultimately come down to personal preference whether or not to turn off your Quooker tap at night. However, if you value energy conservation and don't use a lot of hot water during these hours, turning it off could result in lower energy costs.

The spout is well insulated in all models, meaning that you won't run the risk of burning yourself after operating the Quooker.

Quooker states that its hot taps have a high-vacuum installation and they use 50% less energy than a kitchen boiler. It also claims to be the most energy-efficient hot water supply for the kitchen. The cost of using a Quooker tap is said to be three pence per day (one penny per litre).

Descaling Your Quooker Tap

Frequency – Depending on the hardness of your water, descaling should be done every 3 to 6 months. Hard water areas may require more frequent descaling.

Should I turn my Quooker off when I go on holiday? ›

It is more economical to turn off the Quooker tank if you go on holiday for more than a week. This way, you save about 1.5 kWh per week and the heat loss is only 10W. When absent for at least two weeks, it is recommended to switch off the CUBE. During an extended holiday, the water stood still in your home for a while.

Our service costs £200 inc. VAT (excluding additional parts).

Saving on Water and Energy

The obvious benefit of using a Quooker tap is that it is a smart and effective way of saving on resources. When using the tap, you are able to use as much water as needed without wasting any!

If you live in a hard water area, there's a chance limescale could have built up in the end of the tap causing the water to flow more slowly. Unscrew the nozzle and take out the 'aerator' from the tap end. Soak it in a small cup of white wine vinegar for one hour. Rinse off any limescale and put the tap back together.
