Zip tap care and troubleshooting

Zip tap troubleshooting and maintenance insights

Zip tap systems are reliable, but occasional faults can happen. Here are a few common issues and when to call a technician.

Common faults

Zip taps may slow down, leak, or stop heating or chilling properly over time. These problems are often linked to overdue servicing, worn parts or a filter replacement that’s needed. If your unit isn’t performing as expected, our technicians can inspect and repair it quickly.

Indicator lights and codes

Many Zip tap units use indicator lights to signal when something needs attention, such as a filter change or service reminder. If you notice unusual flashing lights or error codes, it’s best to book a check early before a small issue becomes a full breakdown.

Water quality and filters

Filter replacement is one of the most important parts of zip tap servicing. Old filters can affect taste, flow and water quality. Scheduled filter changes help keep your drinking water clean and ensure your Zip system continues running efficiently in homes and workplaces.

Power and safety

Because Zip taps deliver boiling and chilled water, power and safety systems are essential. If your unit won’t turn on, trips the power, or behaves unexpectedly, stop using it and arrange a professional service. Our trained technicians ensure repairs are completed safely.

Warranty and service intervals

Most Zip tap units perform best with regular servicing at least once a year, depending on usage. Routine maintenance can help protect your warranty, reduce unexpected repairs and extend the life of your system. We can recommend a service schedule that suits your unit.

Complete servicing for Zip filtered water taps and dispensers

From offices to residential kitchens, we provide Zip tap servicing, filter replacement, and repairs for a wide range of systems.

The service provided by the water people exceeded my expectations and service of other providers I had previously engaged to service both my sparkling water zip tap units. The booking process was simple, the technician was delightful and the cost was less than our last provider 12 months ago, a pleasant surprise when you expect prices to continue to rise!

I have nothing but praise to say about The Water People. The service was great they arrived when they said they would and completed the works without any fuss. I would highly recommend anybody with a zip product to call them.

Each time I need to obtain gear for our Zip tap, I always trust these folks. Not only are they reliable and offer fair pricing, but they are always friendly and try to help out in other ways. I’ll stick with them. No worries.

We had a reverse osmosis water filter installed a year ago. The change in taste of the water was immediate. We use the filtered water in the coffee machine and fridge as well, and never have to change the filters due to the high water quality now. The filter service is automated, and the Water People call to arrange the service and filter change. The communication is fantastic, and the technician arrived on time and was prepared. I love that I don't have to remember another thing. Fantastic service. Thank you, Mel and team.

I purchased a hot/cold tap water cooler for my office after my last one broke from a different company. The sales team were friendly and helpful in finding a cooler/price that suited what I was looking for and so far the cooler works great! I love that it comes with the refillable jug too. Delivery was fast and machine was easy to set up. Would recommend this company to others. Thanks!

A very professional experience. I felt like I was looked after to make sure my water filter system would work as it should. I was shown how to remove the filters and install correctly as well as the correct way to flush the filters. Highly recommend this company for any water filter needs.

Frequently asked questions

Do you service all Zip models?

Yes. We provide Zip tap servicing and repairs for a wide range of Zip models, including HydroTap systems, boiling and chilled units, and commercial filtered water dispensers. Whether your unit was purchased through The Water People or elsewhere, our trained technicians can inspect, maintain and repair it to keep it running reliably.

How often should a Zip be serviced?

Most Zip tap units should be serviced at least once a year, especially in commercial or high-use environments. Regular servicing helps prevent breakdowns, supports water quality and keeps the system operating efficiently. Our technicians can recommend the best schedule based on how often your unit is used.

How often do Zip filters need replacing?

Zip filters typically need to be replaced every 6 to 12 months, depending on the model and the amount of water the unit dispenses. Old filters can affect taste, flow and overall water quality. During a service, we can check your system and ensure the right filter replacement is completed on time.

What are the signs your Zip tap needs maintenance?

Common signs include reduced water flow, unusual tastes or smells, leaking around the tap, inconsistent boiling or chilling, or warning lights on the unit. If your Zip tap isn’t performing as it normally does, booking a service early can prevent a small issue from becoming a larger repair.
