How Commercial Wall Mounted Water Boilers Work
These clever wall hung systems work by heating water to near-boiling temperatures (typically 95-98°C) and storing it ready for instant dispensing. Inside, a powerful heating element brings water to temperature, while thermostatic controls maintain perfect heat levels throughout the day. When you press the dispense button or lever, hot water flows through an insulated tap system—delivering consistently hot water in seconds. Most models refill and reheat automatically, ensuring you're never caught short during busy periods. The beauty of wall mounted designs is they keep your work surfaces free while still providing constant hot water just where you need it—brilliant for tight spaces!

Install within easy reach of your drink preparation area but away from heat sources that might affect efficiency.
