The Burco MFCT10STHF is a 10-litre manual fill water boiler built in stainless steel. It heats water without any mains plumbing connection — water is added by hand, heated via a 3kW element, and dispensed on demand. A dial thermostat allows temperature control up to 97°C. The unit runs from a standard 13A plug socket, which makes positioning straightforward wherever hot water is needed.
This type of boiler is commonly used where a fixed plumbed-in unit is either impractical or unnecessary. Staff rooms, waiting areas, site cabins, mobile catering setups, and temporary or pop-up event spaces are all typical applications. It also works well as a secondary hot water source in a larger operation — useful during service peaks or in areas away from the main kitchen. The 3kW element supports reasonable heat-up times for its capacity, though it is worth being clear-eyed about throughput: this is not a continuous-draw boiler suited to sustained back-to-back demand.
Practical points worth keeping in mind:
- No plumbing connection required — repositionable as needs change
- Runs from a standard 13A plug socket, no dedicated supply needed
- Adjustable thermostat gives control over dispensing temperature
- Stainless steel construction is robust and straightforward to wipe down
- Lightweight build makes it easy to move between locations
The manual fill design does require some operational discipline — the unit needs topping up by hand, and in a busy environment it is easy for staff to let it run low during service. For higher-footfall settings or anywhere hot water demand is continuous, a plumbed-in unit with a larger reservoir would be a more practical fit.
If you are weighing up whether this capacity suits your situation, or comparing manual fill against a plumbed alternative, we are glad to help you think it through.
