Pure and Simple

Your water purifier should be as pure in form as your water, right?! That’s the idea behind the Dial + Plus Water Purifier. Intuitive and easy to use, simply push a cup to the lever to dispense fresh, clean, hot or cold water… OR you can also rotate the dial to activate a continuous flow. The first of its kind with dual pour options, it makes it possible to fill varying volumes without all the extra, unnecessary frill.

The ‘push lever’ type is intuitive and easy to use as the user only needs to push a cup to the cock area to get water. In case of the newly invented ‘dial’ type, if the user turns the dial located on the upper parts of the cock, it is possible to get water as the lever is pushed back without the power consumption. It is fixed when the dial is turned up to 90 degrees. The dial type removes the inconveniences of the lever type that needs to keep pressing the lever to get plenty of water. The cock protruding design is possible to use a large pot and bottle conveniently.

Watch Your Water

There’s nothing quite like the visual and taste of fresh, falling, natural spring water. For urban dwellers, this is almost mere fantasy, but the Super-S Water Purifier aims to replicate the experience in a convenient appliance that fits in any home or apartment. The design’s visible water flow is reminiscent of naturally flowing water and allows users to ensure the device is clean. Its slim profile is made possible by a tankless system that saves counter-space and is more hygienic than others with a reservoir. Better yet, the smart design can be operated conveniently via the user’s smartphone to fill, cool or heat remotely as well as monitor water quality.

A new dispensing experience

Most water purifiers focus on technology, and a form that complements it, while looking advanced and fresh. The Super S water purifier does that, but also focuses on the interaction one has with the purifier. Not many people focus on this interaction because their prime concern is to get fresh purified water. However, a product with a good experience goes miles in becoming iconic, and setting standards for the society (look at the iPod or the Nest).

The Super S comes with a back-lit dispenser button that tells you what you need to know about the water by shining in four different colors. Blue and red for cold and hot water respectively, green for purified water, and orange for baby-safe water (which is temperature regulated, contains more minerals, etc.) The purifier even features a dispenser button for children, located on the lower side of the device, so that kids can easily access it. Clever, don’t you think?
