This technical solution can filter harmful substances in water and improve water quality.

[0004] Although the above technical solution can improve the water quality to a certain extent by setting up a filter box, as the use time of the filter box increases, the purification effect on the water quality weakens, and scale will still be produced after heating. The filter box cannot block the scale in the water tank. After long-term use, the scale adheres to the inner wall of the box. On the one hand, it greatly increases the energy consumption of the hot water tank. On the other hand, it will also cause impurities in the water, clogging the water outlet pipe and the shower head. Manual disassembly and regular cleaning are still required, which takes a long time and greatly affects the normal use of the electric water tank. Utility Model Content
