THE KETTLE BENEFITS

Current kettle designs have two main problems: The new kettle design enables the solution of these problems:
Problem 1 - Time to boil and trips to the tap

When a kettle is filled with water, it takes several minutes for the water to boil, a long wait for a quick cup or two of hot water.

To fill only with enough water for one or two cups involves judgement and implies frequent trips to the tap for refilling.
Solution 1

The PLUNGER KETTLE is filled to the top but the only water heated is the water needed at that moment for that cup(s) of tea or coffee, giving:

  • Convenient filling.
  • Important time savings up to 80%.
  • Large energy savings up to 80%.
Problem 2 - Hardness and water impurities

Tap water is frequently hard and may carry undesirable tastes and odours. The quality of tea or coffee often suffers because of this, with scum on the surface or an unpleasant taste.

Solution 2

The plunger is used to separate the water to be heated and to pressurise it through a high flow filter additionally giving:

  • The removal or reduction of water impurities.
  • The filter life is determined accurately according to real use by the employment of the electronic counter.
  • Very fast throughput.

    The main benefits of the Plunger Kettle are thus:

  • Convenient and infrequent filling from the tap.
  • Ultra-fast boiling with time and energy savings up to 80%.
  • Ultra-fast filtering with plunger pumping action.
  • Pump incorporates measuring system - one pump action per cup!
  • Long lasting and high throughput filter with around 3 times the capacity of a conventional filter.
  • Good coffee, tea or other drinks with no scum at the top and much reduced impurities.
  • Works as a pure water fountain on its own.
  • Test strip to calibrate filter life to local water hardness included.
  • A well integrated system which is easy and fun to operate.
Boiling only the water required represents such a saving that the Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) stated that:

"If everyone boiled only the water they need to make a cup of tea instead of filling the kettle every time, we could save enough electricity to run practically all the street lighting in the U.K."
