BRITA vs Zip Tap - Exploring the differences
We know that the world of water dispensers can be a confusing place. With so much choice at your fingertips, from models to water types to features and benefits, how do you know you’re getting the very best option for what you need? Here, we explore the differences between two top of the range brands, BRITA VIVREAU water dispensers and Zip HydroTaps to show you why BRITA is best.
Performance
BRITA VIVREAU is more than just a stylish water tap or dispenser; its performance gives the water it produces a great, and fresh, taste.
Unlike Zip Tap and its Hydro Tap, using the BRITA VIVREAU range means that you will not have to deal with the issues of hard water at any extra cost. Limescale protection is included as standard, so all of your descaling problems are taken care of without additional installation or the cost of a replaceable filter (like with the Zip Tap).
Both Zip Tap and BRITA VIVREAU are designed to prevent dangerous splashes from boiling water taps, and the taps can be fitted over a sink or away from one. However, BRITA VIVREAU offers a drip tray as standard, to get rid of any of that excess water waste, whilst Zip Tap this come as an added extra.
What’s more, whilst both BRITA and Zip Tap’s dispensers kill 99.99% of bacteria, every BRITA VIVREAU water dispenser has a BRITA ThermalGate™, which safeguards against external contamination sources. Learn More
Sustainabilty
Our dispensers are built to last, with a whole bunch of replaceable components and filtration technology options ready and on hand to prevent breakdowns. We’ve also recently been awarded an EcoVadis silver sustainability rating. That means that BRITA is committed to sustainability across all areas of the business, and is in the top 12% of companies ranked by EcoVadis, worldwide.
BRITA VIVREAU dispensers work to eliminate single-use plastic bottles by up to 86%, and since 1992 we’ve been recycling our filter cartridges (the first company to do so!). Compared to Zip Tap, all parts of our filters are reused or recycled.
Features
All of our water dispensers have a massive amount of scope when it comes to features. From our Fill models to our C-Tap and Top Pro product line, compared to Zip Tap on average BRITA VIVREAU offers you more choice for your office or home.
Unlike the Zip Tap, the BRITA VIVREAU have specifically trademarked features, each of which are uniquely, perfectly designed to make the water quality as high as possible. That includes the HygienePlus solution, ideal for environments where hygiene is of the utmost importance.
The BRITA VIVREAU is also perfect for units which have smaller storage space under the sink, with the VIVREAU at 473mm depth versus upto 520mm (including duct and vent tray) offered by Zip Tap. Moreover, the Top and the Extra BRITA products offer 50l or 85l water capacity options for countertop and floor dispensers, and 4 different water type options versus 3 water types that Zip Tap provides.
