Steamless Vacuum Electric Water Boiler & Warmer
Judges’ Comments
We highly evaluated the product’s unique structure, which keeps the high-temperature steam generated during boiling strictly contained within the main body, effectively reducing the risk of users accidentally scalding themselves.
About the Award-Winning Technology: “Steamless Structure”*
Award-Winning Technology: Steamless Structure*
Featuring Tiger’s proprietary “steam catcher structure,” this innovative design strictly contains steam within the unit. This gives you the freedom to place the appliance anywhere in your home, while entirely eliminating the risk of scalding from high-temperature steam escaping through a vent.
How the Steam Catcher Structure Works
- Equipped with a Steamless sensor that detects boiling.
It instantly senses the emission of steam as the water reaches a boil, restricting it to an absolute minimum to prevent any unnecessary steam generation—ensuring a safer and more comfortable environment for your home. - The steam generated during boiling enters through the steam intake port and is safely captured by the steam catcher built inside the lid.
- The steam is safely cooled as it passes through the cooling pathway within the steam catcher.
- The cooled steam condenses into water droplets and safely returns to the inner container through its original pathway.
*Even if the dispense lock button is locked, tilting or knocking over the main body may cause hot water to flow from the spout, posing a risk of scalding.

Double the Savings with Time and Energy Efficiency
Energy saving course (Energy-saving boiling & Energy-saving keep warm)
You can select your preferred temperature setting (98, 90, 80, or 70)1. The boiling process intelligently stops once the water reaches your designated keep warm temperature.
This advanced feature not only minimizes power consumption compared to a standard full boil, but also significantly reduces heating time.
Furthermore, if the unit remains inactive for over two hours, it automatically lowers the keep warm temperature by approximately 5 degrees from your setting, providing an additional layer of power consumption reduction2.
Target models: All models
*1 The PIW-A model does not feature the 70°C keep warm setting (available settings are 98, 90, 80, and vacuum insulation only).
*2 The “Energy-saving boiling” function on the PIW-A model is specifically designed to switch off the heater prior to a full boil, concluding the process at approximately 98°C regardless of the selected temperature setting.

Expand Your Options: Cordless Air Dispensing
When the power is connected, you can effortlessly pour hot water with a single touch using the electric-powered dispensing. In locations without a power outlet, the air dispensing feature allows you to dispense hot water even when the unit is unplugged—bringing flexibility and reliable warmth wherever you need it in your home.
Target models: PIG-H / PIM-H / PIM-N / PIS-G / PIS-N / PIW-A
