Hand-picked recommendations to go alongside this product
Installing an instant hot water tap in your kitchen is not only a great timesaver, but it can also save you money as well. The average kettle costs around 2.5p to boil, and most of the time this is just for one cup of tea or coffee. The Perrin & Rowe Phoenician mini instant hot water tap costs around hal of this, and because you are only boiling the exact amount of water that you are going to use, it makes it much more energy efficient than a kettle.
The Phoenician mini kettle tap is available in a choice of finishes; chrome, nickel, pewter and gold, so there is bound to be a finish that would match the décor in your kitchen. The temperature of the water coming out of the Phoenician can be pre-set anywhere from 75°C to 99°C, and this is done via a touch screen on the boiler unit which is housed under the sink.
The Perrin & Rowe Phoenician comes complete with the latest filtration technology that removes the impurities from your water supply, and leaves your tea or coffee tasting pure and fresh. The filter also vastly reduces the amount of limescale that passes through the tap, therefore increasing the lifespan of the tap itself.

Minimum Water Pressure
Your water pressure depends on your home's water system. It’s important to consider water pressure when buying a new tap or shower. Buying a product with a minimum water pressure that’s too high for your home will result in poor performance.
- With a combi boiler you can usually expect between 1 and 2 bar
- With a gravity system (cold water tank in attic) you may have as little as 0.1 or 0.2 bar upstairs, and perhaps 0.5 bar downstairs
- With a high pressure unvented system (hot water cylinder, no cold water tank) you will generally have between 1 and 3 bar
You can install an item with a low minimum pressure rating on a high pressure system, but avoid installing an item with a high minimum rating on a low pressure system! Read our guide to water pressure to learn more.
Taps use either a ceramic disc cartridge or a rubber compression washer to control flow. Rubber washers will naturally wear down with use, and the tap handle will require more and more rotations to turn on or off. On the plus side, it's very easy to replace a rubber washer and they're available everywhere.
Ceramic disc cartridges need only a 90-degree rotation to fully open or close, and the 2 ceramic plates are incredibly hard-wearing and resilient. They're more expensive to make, but they allow for a huge range of designs, easy operation and simple maintenance if needed.
Whilst it is rare for a ceramic cartridge to need replacing, you may very occasionally need to remove and rinse the cartridge if grit or debris within the water system is preventing the 2 plates from closing properly. Much like replacing a rubber washer, this is a quick and easy job, and will ensure many years of use.
