We review our prices annually based on suppliers cost and the demand for services, as well as other external factors. If the pricing does not meet your expectations, I would recommend speaking to your local sales representative. If this might interest you, please do get in contact with our office and they can advise who this would be.

Astronomic service costs and unreliable
Initially we loved our tap and we were paying the very expensive servicing costs each year. This year, after paying over £300 to get it serviced we were told the compressor had run out of gas and Zip cannot fix this so they condemned the tap. Felt like we paid £300 to have the engineer arrive and disconnect the tap and we got none of the service fee back even though we used no new parts or filter. Customer services were unhelpful and just said we wouldn’t get any money back. The one concession they could do was to offer £150 off a brand new tap but at £3000 it did not seem worth it. We will not be staying with Zip and will find an alternative company’s water tap. As an aside the Zip products at work always break as well so not a reliable company.

Disappointing
Engineer was polite and courteous. No issues there. However 5 days later we have the same problem with the tap. Then someone can't come out for two days.

Good morning Chris,

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with this feedback.
I do apologise that your product went back into fault after our first visit. Our engineers are tasked with completing a "first time fix" on all their visits, and if this is not the case then we look into what prevented this.
Kind regards,
Bradley
