I am building out a new office and I want to have a plumbed hot water solution that runs off my water purification system. I found an old thread on the same topic, but nobody came up with a solution.

Basically, this amounts to a PID'd tap. A Fetco would be great, but I don't want one of those giant things taking up space. I want to have the countertop super clean.

The purpose of the hot tap is for making tea and pour over coffee.

We have a plumbed in Keurig in our kitchen - it is set for 198 degrees F and we use it for hot water for tea and soup as well as brewing coffee. It is designed for office use so it might be a good fit for you.

There are a few companies offering hot water dispensers for your kitchen (like this one). I was going to replace my soap dispenser with one until I realized that they all seem to max out at a paltry 180-190°F.

Id suggest something like that Astra for a small solution. I bought one of these for brewing. While its not plumbed in, it holds water at 208 as long as you'd like. 5 liters is plenty for me, and I can't plumb anyway. Not where I live.

The Marco units seem like an option but they are really big! Anyone have thoughts on those ? Or mod bar?

Just learned that most of the InSinkErator brand of plumbed hot water dispensers go to 200°F. Not too shabby.

My mother-in-law had one of those or something like that, rectangular box under the sink, and spout mounted to the sink. One day I just filled a cup to have hot water to drink. I never used it after that, from then on I always boiled water in a pot.

No idea how old it was, but that water was foul and I have no idea how you'd clean it.

Hrm. Good to know. Any recall on what the taste was like?

I don't think at the time I was concerned with identifying the taste, just surprised at how bad it was. It had been there for a while, probably 5 or 10 years but it seems like it's the kind of thing you expect to last that long. It actually might have been a fair amount older than that as I visited that house for 15 years and it was there and working both the first and last time I was there. I assume it was from the scale that must have built up inside, but that's a wild guess at best. Could have been connected to the hot water to help it recover which would have meant it started with a disadvantage.
