Brushed Brass Boiling Tap | 3 in 1 with 2.4L Tank & Filter

Brushed Brass Boiling Tap – 3 in 1 with 2.4 Litre Tank and Carbon Filter

A boiling tap is already the tallest thing on most worktops, and in brushed brass it stops pretending otherwise. At 358 mm to the top of the squared spout, this is the piece the eye goes to when someone walks into the kitchen — which is either exactly what you want or a good reason to choose the chrome instead.

Behind the finish it is the same three-part system as the rest of the range. The left lever draws filtered water at up to 98°C; the right is an ordinary hot-and-cold mixer. A 2.4 litre tank in the cupboard holds the water at temperature and a carbon filter sits in line before it, so the kettle and the filter jug both leave the worktop.

Brass asks to be answered by something else in the room. A brass or gold-toned sink, cabinet handles, a pendant light, warm wood — any one of them and this brushed brass kitchen tap reads as part of a scheme. In an otherwise all-stainless kitchen it reads as the one thing that does not match, and that is worth being honest about before it arrives.

Three checks before ordering, the same for every tap in this range. The tank is 330 mm tall and needs a 13A socket in the sink cupboard, the filter needs a little over 300 mm of wall beside it, and the tap wants 1 bar minimum — a gravity-fed cylinder in the hot press will not drive it.

Features & Benefits

• Brushed brass finish — warm and matt rather than polished, so it does not mirror the room the way chrome does.
• 3 in 1 operation — filtered boiling on the left lever, standard hot and cold on the right, through a single tap hole.
• Adjustable 75–98°C from the touch-screen control on the tank, covering green tea through to blanching.
• 2.4 litre capacity — roughly ten mugs in succession before the tank reheats.
• Carbon filter supplied, rated 3.5 l/min, cutting chlorine taste and slowing scale build-up.
• Boiling lever kept separate from the everyday mixer, so it is not turned on by reaching across.
• 1.5 kW element on a standard 13A plug, 2.2 W standby, no hard wiring needed.
• 201 mm spout reach at 260 mm clearance, swivelling clear of a double bowl.
• IPX4 rated tank, CE marked to EN 60335 and EN 55015.
• 2 year manufacturer guarantee on tap and tank, handled here in Ireland.

Filter Changes and Upkeep

Worth understanding the economics of this system before you own one, because they are not obvious. The tank is the expensive component and it is not a consumable — it should simply keep working. What decides whether it does is the carbon rod cartridge sitting in the cold feed ahead of it, taking out the calcium and magnesium that would otherwise bond to the heating element. A cartridge costs very little against a tank. Changing it every three to six months — the window printed on the filter label — is the entire maintenance schedule, and it is the difference between a tank that lasts and one that furs up and struggles to recover between draws.

The filter itself is finish-agnostic — it lives in the cupboard, so brushed brass, chrome and matt black taps all take the identical part. That makes reordering simple: it is the ELLSI carbon filter cartridge kit (PDT-000052), supplied with housing, wall bracket and ¼in push-fit connectors, and it fits the 4 in 1 taps in the same family as well as the 3 in 1. Hard water pushes you to the three-month end, so if you are anywhere along the east coast plan accordingly.

Why Choose a Brushed Brass Boiling Water Kitchen Tap?

Because brass is the finish people choose on purpose. Nobody arrives at a gold kitchen tap by accident the way they settle on chrome — it is a decision about how the room should feel, and on a tap this size the decision is unmistakable. Against white quartz it warms the whole run; against dark cabinetry it lifts it.

The care question matters more here than on an ordinary mixer, and for a reason specific to this product. Boiling water in hard Irish water leaves scale around the spout. Scale sends people reaching for limescale remover or descaler. Those are exactly the products that attack a brass finish, and unlike a scratch it does not stay in one place — stripped coating discolours unevenly across the whole surface. Keep to a damp cloth and a dry-off, change the filter on schedule so scale never establishes, and the finish outlasts the guarantee comfortably.

One practical note on the kit. The tank is matt black on every version of this system, brass included, so the two do not match — but the tank lives inside the cupboard and is only seen when you go looking for it. If a coordinated cupboard matters to you, the matt black version is the one where tap and tank are the same colour.

Prefer something that blends rather than announces? The same system comes in polished chrome. If a boiling tap is more appliance than you need, the Stroud in brushed brass is a conventional twin lever in a similar squared style, and the Tivoli in brushed brass is a slim single lever that runs from 0.5 bar.
