Boon has launched the Boon Tap, a next-generation under-counter water purification system designed for modern homes. Known for its commercial-grade filtration systems, Boon supplies water systems to over 400 premium hotels in India and global corporations like Google, McKinsey, and BCG. Now, the company brings the same heavy-duty reliability to residential kitchens.
Target Audience and Pricing
The Boon Tap targets health-conscious households looking to ditch plastic bottled water in favor of a sustainable, smart home hydration solution. It is officially priced at Rs 20,500. Customers can find more details and submit purchase inquiries on Boon's official website.
Filtration Technology
The system uses a proprietary 8-stage UltraOsmosis filtration setup capable of purifying water with high contamination levels up to 2,000 PPM TDS. The process includes:
- Initial stages: Pre-filter for large particles, sediment filter, and activated carbon block to remove chlorine, organic contaminants, and odors.
- Core: RO membrane for deep purification.
- Safety and taste: Inline UV stage to kill bacteria and viruses, followed by an alkaline post-filter that adds healthy minerals for balanced, great-tasting water.
The system purifies water at 20 liters per hour and includes an 8-liter storage tank hidden under the sink, ensuring families always have clean water ready without waiting.
Smart Features and App Integration
The Boon Tap is powered by the WaterAI App, which connects the system to the cloud and a smartphone. Users get real-time tracking of water quality, filter health, and system performance. The app sends proactive service alerts, eliminating guesswork in maintenance.
It features three specialized dispensing modes that alter the mineral profile:
- Daily mode: Balanced minerals for everyday drinking.
- Active mode: Enhanced minerals for physical activity and recovery.
- Brew mode: Tuned mineral profile for optimal tea and coffee flavor and clarity.
Additionally, three smart Care Routines are available: Auto for daily upkeep, Baby Safe for ultra-pure water for infants, and Away to protect the system during vacations.
Design and Build
Boon designed the system with a minimalist philosophy: the machinery and storage tanks stay hidden inside the cabinet under the sink, keeping the counter clean. The only visible part is the faucet made from high-grade SS 304 stainless steel in a sleek Gunmetal Grey finish, featuring a smooth toggle switch for a splash-free stream.
