The R36 is a 22-litre stainless steel hot water boiler designed for continuous dispensing in high-volume service operations. It heats and maintains water at service temperature for tea, coffee, and instant beverage preparation across approximately 250 cups per fill. Commercial kitchens, hotel conference areas, staff canteens, and large-scale catering facilities use this unit during peak service periods.
Commercial Application
Eliminates the need for multiple kettles or repeated boiling cycles during service. Automatic heat control maintains set temperature without manual intervention. Water level indicator allows staff to refill during operation without service interruption.
Used during breakfast service, conference breaks, and high-turnover beverage service periods. A 22-litre capacity supports continuous dispensing for 2-3 hours in operations serving 80-120 people per session. The tap dispenser allows portion control and reduces spillage during self-service.
Key Operational Advantages
- 304-grade stainless steel inner tank resists scale buildup and simplifies descaling protocols
- 22-litre capacity delivers approximately 250 × 90ml servings per fill cycle
- Automatic thermostat cycles heating element to maintain 85-95°C holding temperature
- Water level gauge visible from service position for refill timing
- Concealed heating element reduces maintenance frequency and extends service life
- 230V AC operation on standard commercial kitchen circuits

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the R36 boiler?
A: The R36 uses 304-grade stainless steel for the inner tank and outer casing. This grade resists corrosion from prolonged water contact and simplifies cleaning protocols. The tap assembly is brass with food-safe chrome plating.
Q: How long does the R36 take to heat 22 litres from cold to service temperature?
A: Initial heating from 15°C to 90°C takes approximately 35-45 minutes depending on mains water temperature and voltage stability. Once at temperature, the automatic thermostat maintains heat without requiring full reheat cycles. Recovery time after partial refill during service is 8-12 minutes per 5 litres added.
Q: Can the R36 be plumbed for automatic refill or is it manual fill only?
A: The R36 is designed for manual fill via the top lid. It is not configured for direct mains connection. This design allows portability between service areas and eliminates the need for fixed plumbing installation.
Q: What descaling schedule is recommended for the R36 in hard water areas?
A: In hard water regions (above 200 mg/L calcium carbonate), descale every 2-3 weeks using citric acid or commercial descaling solution. Soft water areas can extend intervals to 4-6 weeks. Visible scale buildup on the heating element or reduced heating efficiency indicates immediate descaling is required.
Q: Does the R36 include overheat protection or automatic shutoff?
A: The R36 is equipped with a thermal cutout that disconnects power if internal temperature exceeds safe limits. This prevents dry-firing if the unit is switched on without water. Manual reset is required after a thermal shutoff event.
