Description

Technical Field

[0002] In daily life, people will inevitably come into contact with various microorganisms through air, clothing, etc. The reproduction of pathogenic bacteria on human skin may cause harm to human health through the skin, respiratory tract, digestive tract and blood. Current shower equipment sprays water from the shower head on the surface of the human body to rinse the skin surface. The water temperature produced by conventional water heaters meets the bathing temperature of the human body, which is not enough to kill bacteria on the surface of the human body. When the user takes a bath, chemicals need to be added to solve the problem of sterilization and deodorization on the surface of the human body. In addition, when conventional instant electric water heaters or fuel water heaters are used in a normal temperature environment for a long time, a large number of microorganisms in the water will accumulate in the wall of the water heater cavity, and a large number of microorganisms will be brought out when the water is used, supplying unclean water, which poses a risk of damaging human health.
