Drinking Water Filter and Hot Water Dispenser

When my hot water dispenser and the filtered water dispenser broke last week, I was trying to find a replacement desperately. I did my usual research regarding which brand I should use. The one I have been using was from Culligan and it worked fine but it did not have a hot water dispenser. I was determined to replace one with hot water dispenser as well. I came up with a brand that most luxury homes used that has both hot and cool water dispenser. The brand is called Franke. I went to their webpage and tried to locate a distributor near my house but none has those items in stock. The good features that this brand offers Self Sterilizing ceramic outer shelve with embedded silver particle embedded within the ceramic itself and therefore it can not escape. This means that it stays in the filter and will not escaped into your drinking water. it is bacterial static and self sterilizing. The best thing about this filter is that it is reusable as many as 20 times. all it take is to remove it with a green scotch wash pad and clean it from time to time and it will be as good as new. That certainly beats paying about $100 every time to have a service man to come and replace the filter. Franke also has a hot water dispenser and is made of very durable material. The whole system comes with a butler (hot and cold water dispenser) that fits on the sink hole. I continue to search the web and found many places that sells this system. But the one I finally decided to buy from is Amazon.com. They have the lowest prices and the fastest delivery.



Installation is pretty easy, follow the instructions given find a suitable place under the sink preferably close to where you have the butler installed and of course, the electrical outlet and the water supply outlet. One thing to be very careful is to make sure you do not turn on the power until you are sure that the connection is correct.
Especially the hot water dispenser. The warranty specifically says that if the tank is empty and the power is turned on, the warranty is off. This makes sense because you do not want to heat up the tank when it is dry.
