Our most eco-friendly HydroTap*
Featuring a more eco-friendly refrigeration system
Zip HydroTap now uses R290 refrigerant gas delivering a 95% reduction in Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared to the previous refrigerant gas used.
What is R290?
R290 (propane) is a sustainable natural refrigerant gas with a very low Global Warming Potential (GWP) and high energy efficiency. Used commonly in commercial and household refrigeration systems, it has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and offers an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic refrigerants.
100% Water Efficient
Zip HydroTap uses air-cooling technology to deliver perfectly chilled water.
Closed refrigeration forced air cooled systems are 100% water efficient with rapid chilling and heat transfer capabilities delivering consistently colder chilled water.
Forced air cooling removes waste heat that is generated as part of the refrigeration process for cooling water.
No water is used as part of this process, making it 100% water efficient.
Improved energy efficiency
The new front fascia and integrated airflow vent design in the command centre of the Zip HydroTap promotes improved energy efficiency, allowing air to be expelled out of the cupboard more quickly and efficiently.
At high usage periods, the HydroTap continues to deliver consistent chilled water while optimising energy efficiency by up to 24%. In standby mode, the HydroTap is 10% more energy efficient while ensuring consistent chilled temperatures on demand.
How to install our more Eco-friendly HydroTap
We are committed to doing our part to ensure a more sustainable planet. We’ve made significant changes to the HydroTap G5 to be eco-friendlier than previous models and this means there are key changes to the installation process of the Zip HydroTap G5.
