SG Tap Water's Clean – Why Get a Filtered Water Dispenser?

Don’t like to wait for your boiled water to cool down? Here’s a solution.

Singapore’s tap water is, by international standards, safe for drinking. However, most people still prefer boiling it first instead of drinking it straight from the tap – and while it’s easy to do, it’s not the most convenient method, since you’ll still need to wait for the water to cool down.

So what’s the solution to that? Well, it’s 3M's Hot, Cold & Room Temperature Filtered Water Dispenser (HCD-2). With over 80 years of experience in perfecting water filtration systems, they have just what you need for cleaner, tastier water at various temperatures, and at any time of day. Read on to find out more!

It gives you better tasting water

While our tap water is safe for drinking, some people aren't too fond of the way it tastes. In fact, 21% of homeowners we surveyed said they would invest in a water purifier for better tasting water.

If you agree with the above, it’s time to consider getting the 3M HCD-2. It’s able to filter out residual chlorine from tap water, giving you purified water that tastes ‘lighter’ and better.

It removes contaminants from your tap water

You may think that boiling your tap water is enough to get rid of contaminants – but it actually isn’t. That’s why filtered water dispensers like the 3M HCD-2 are still needed.

Together with its advanced filtration system, its UV sterilisation light can inactivate pathogenic viruses and bacteria, ensuring your drinking water is as clean as it gets. It’s made with BPA-free plastic, so you don’t have to worry about harmful chemicals leaching into your drinking water.

Plus, with 3M being a company based on science, rest assured that their products – including the HCD-2 dispenser – are of the highest quality.

It gives you hot and cold water instantly

With the option to dispense hot, cold, and room temperature water instantly, the 3M HCD-2 is a lifesaver for those short on time. Whether it’s to make a bottle of milk for your hungry infant, or to get a glass of ice cold water to quench your thirst, you can dispense water at the temperature you need almost instantly.

  • Cold water: 5-8°C
  • Room temperature water: 20-25°C
  • Hot water: 85-90°C

This feature eliminates the need for a kettle and multiple jugs to store water. Plus, its in-built water tank can store up to 3L of cold water, meaning you also don’t need to waste time chilling bottles of water in the fridge.


What makes the 3M HCD-2 a great choice?

It only has one filter

Unlike other filtered water dispensers in the market, the 3M HCD-2 only has one filter, which only needs to be changed once every 6 months. The process of changing it is also completely hassle-free, since it only requires a simple twist-and-turn to pull out the filter cartridge – which means that you can easily do it yourself.

It’s easy to use

Since it only requires a single push on the dispense pad to get your water, that means it’s user-friendly enough for the whole family to use, without having to toggle through multiple settings. Additionally, it also has an auto-dispense mode that allows you to fill a bottle up to 25cm in height (up to 2 litres at a go) with just a single tap. Talk about convenience!

It’s easy to install and maintain

Installation of the 3M HCD-2 is pretty straightforward as well. All that is needed is a nearby power point and a water source, ideally on the same side of the dispenser.

Thankfully, Jestac, the exclusive distributor of 3M HCD-2, can take care of that by drilling a small hole in your countertop to conceal the water tubing underneath. With more than 10 years of experience installing 3M water filtration systems, you can rest assured that the installation is in good hands.

Alternatively, if you’re in the midst of renovations, you may ask your contractor to do the drilling and Jestac will take care of the rest.

Also, unlike most water dispensers, the tubing and connectors can be replaced. Rather than relying on sterilisation technology, they can be directly accessed, cleaned, and replaced, so you can rest easy knowing that they are dirt and gunk-free.
