Why this under counter water boiler earns its place
The Marco FRIIA HCS Lite is built on Marco's award-winning water-boiler technology — proven in thousands of commercial kitchens. The system pairs a compact MIX UC3 boiler with an under-counter chiller and a sleek countertop font, all concealed neatly under your prep or bar surface. At just 268 × 120 × 168 mm, the boiler footprint won't demand a redesign of your plumbing.
The Lite variant delivers 12 litres per hour of cold and sparkling water — pitched for smaller establishments, satellite kitchens, or venues where the standard 35 litres per hour is overkill. That said, 12 litres per hour is substantial: it covers drinks service in a busy bar, water for prepping vegetables, and guest requests without creating a queue at the tap.
The system includes a built-in cold water filter, protecting downstream equipment and ensuring water quality without separate filtration costs. Sparkling water flexibility is built in: choose internal CO2 cartridges for simplicity or external supply for high-volume venues. The result is a tap that covers hot water (for tea, cleaning), chilled water (for drinks, prep), and sparkling (for hospitality venues that want to upsell bottled-water margins without the logistics).
