Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the existing hot water machine, after the user finishes using the hot water, some hot water remains in the pipeline from the water tank to the user's water outlet. Due to the poor insulation effect of the pipeline, the hot water in the residual pipeline will Cool down in a short time
When the user uses hot water again, because the residual hot water in the pipeline has been cooled, the part of the water must be released before the hot water can be used again, which is a great waste of water and heat sources; During the cooling process in the pipeline, it is easy to breed bacteria, pollute the pipeline network, and damage the health of users

Abstract

The invention discloses a water heater and a control method thereof. The water heater comprises a water tank, a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe, wherein the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are arranged on the water tank. The water heater further comprises a main control board, a flow detection device arranged on the water outlet pipe and a negative pressure generator arranged on the water tank. The flow detection device and the negative pressure generator are electrically connected with the main control board. The main control board is used for controlling the negative pressure generator to be started when the flow detection device detects that no water is discharged out of the water outlet pipe. By means of the water heater and the control method thereof, the amount of water remaining in the pipes is reduced, and hot water resources are saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of water heaters, in particular to a water heater and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the existing hot water machine, after the user finishes using the hot water, some hot water remains in the pipeline from the water tank to the user's water outlet. Due to the poor insulation effect of the pipeline, the hot water in the residual pipeline will Cool down in a short time. When the user uses hot water again, because the residual hot water in the pipeline has been cooled, the part of the water must be released before the hot water can be used again, which is a great waste of water and heat sources; During the cooling process in the pipeline, it is easy to breed bacteria, pollute the pipeline network, and damage the health of users. Contents of the invention [0003] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a hot water machine, aiming at reducing the amount of residual...
