Drinking-water tap · ZipZip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One
One tap instead of two: filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water from a touchpad handle, plus ordinary hot and cold water for washing up, over a single under-bench command centre.
About the Zip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One
The Zip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One replaces two taps with one. It gives instant filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water through a touchpad handle, and ordinary hot and cold water as well, so the drinking tap and the sink mixer are the same fitting. The command centre that does the work sits under the bench.
Zip's sheet pitches it for the home, as a bold design statement, and also rates the system for up to 100 users. Because one tap does both jobs, it needs only a single 50 mm hole in the worktop. Sovereign Water supplies, fits and services it under a maintenance plan. For the wider range, see the Zip range.

Typical applications
Who the Zip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One is for
- Anyone who wants one tap on the sink instead of a mixer plus a drinking-water tap.
- Homes, which is where Zip's own sheet aims it, as a bold design statement.
- Sites that need a system rated for up to 100 users, which is the figure on the sheet.
- Worktops with room for one 50 mm tap hole, not two.
- Sites that already have a hot and a cold supply at the sink, because this model needs both.
How the Zip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One works
Drinking water goes through Zip MicroPurity 0.2 micron filtration into the command centre, which heats, chills and carbonates it and sends it to the touchpad handle. Boiling water is factory set to 98 °C for a smooth, non-sputtering flow, and chilled water is 6 to 10 °C. The boiling tank is stainless steel. Zip says the command centre is now in its 5th generation.
The hot and cold water for washing up is separate from the filtered drinking water, so the unit needs both a cold and a hot supply connected, unlike the cold-only HydroTaps. The spout holds an aerator that Zip says is specially developed to improve the delivery of sparkling water. A boiling safety lock protects young or vulnerable users.
Zip's sheet gives flow rates of 4 l/min for boiling and chilled water and 1.6 l/min for sparkling. It names the unit 240/175 but does not list cups an hour, so we confirm the figures for your use at survey. If you are weighing it against a kettle or bottled supply, see our comparison of an instant boiling water tap and a kettle.
Which one should you choose?
The Celsius Plus All-in-One is the one to pick if you want a single tap on the sink. If the sink already has a mixer, a drinking-water tap on its own may be simpler.

You want one tap for filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water and hot and cold for washing up, with a single worktop hole.
Zip HydroTap G5 Classic Plus
You want a plain drinking-water tap next to your existing sink mixer, in seven models from 20 to 100 users.

BRITA Extra C-Tap
You want hot, chilled and sparkling water from a stainless steel or matt black tap with a touch panel, for 20 to 100 people.
Installation and servicing
The tap goes through one 50 mm hole in the worktop and the command centre sits in the cabinet below. Zip's installation notes say installation must be done by a qualified person following national and local regulations. You need mains electrical and drinking water connections plus waste water drainage, all within 1 metre of the product, and because this model also gives hot and cold water, a hot supply as well as a cold one.
The unit is air cooled, so the cabinet needs discreet cut-outs for ventilation. Some stone worktops may need a specialist cutting service. Zip recommends a scale filtration kit in a hard water area. The drawing above shows a clearance envelope 395 mm wide and 535 mm high, with a cylinder and regulator, a limescale filter and an optional booster. Zip notes on the drawing that the booster hoses cannot be lengthened.
Sovereign Water installs and commissions the unit and services it under a maintenance plan. The datasheet does not give a service interval, so we set one with you at survey. The survey is chargeable and is credited back if you go ahead.
Zip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One questions answered
What does the Zip HydroTap G5 Celsius Plus All-in-One dispense?
Filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water through a touchpad handle, plus ordinary hot and cold water, all from one tap.
Does it replace my kitchen tap?
Yes, that is the idea. One tap does the drinking water and the hot and cold for washing up. It needs a 50 mm worktop hole, and both a hot and a cold supply connected.
How many people does it suit?
Zip's sheet rates it for up to 100 users. The sheet's own text pitches it for the home, so tell us how many people will use it and we will check it suits your site.
How many cups an hour does it give?
The sheet does not list cups an hour. It gives flow rates of 4 l/min for boiling and chilled water and 1.6 l/min for sparkling. We confirm the figures for your use at survey.
How hot is the boiling water, and is it safe?
Boiling water is factory set to 98 °C. Zip lists a boiling safety lock that protects young or vulnerable users. As with any boiling tap, supervision matters where children or vulnerable users are present.
What does it need to be installed?
A cold and a hot water supply at 2.5 to 5 bar, mains power on one 13 A socket, and waste water drainage, all within 1 metre of the unit. The cabinet needs ventilation cut-outs, and a qualified person must install it.
Is the hot and cold water filtered?
The sheet describes the boiling, chilled and sparkling water as filtered through Zip MicroPurity 0.2 micron filtration. It does not say the ordinary hot and cold water is filtered.
Where does the gas supply for sparkling water go?
Zip's installation drawing shows a cylinder with a regulator in the cabinet next to the command centre. The sheet does not describe it further, so we confirm the cylinder arrangement for your site at survey.
What warranty does it have?
Zip's UK datasheet lists an appliance warranty of 24 months plus an additional 36 months on the boiling tank.
Do you supply, install and service it?
Yes. We supply, install and service it under a maintenance plan. The survey is chargeable and is credited back if you go ahead.

Across most of southern and eastern England, mains water is very hard. Rain filtering through chalk and limestone dissolves calcium and magnesium, and that scale coats heating elements, so we size every system to your supply and your equipment.
