The heated domestic hot water enters the pressure storage water tank 6 through the air source heat pump system water supply pipe 30. The pressure storage water tank 6 is additionally provided with three interfaces, one of which is connected to the air source heat pump system water return pipe 31.

The outlet of the condenser 3 enters the pressure storage water tank 6 through the air source heat pump system water supply pipe 30. One of the outlets of the pressure storage water tank 6 enters the plate heat exchanger 7 for secondary heating through the domestic hot water supply pipe 34. The 60°C high-temperature hot water after steam heating enters the first water use point 9a and the second water use point 9b. The remaining domestic hot water is mixed with water supplement and then enters the pressure storage water tank 6. When the water temperature in the pressure storage water tank 6 is lower than 45°C, the air source side hot water circulating pump 5 is started. The hot water from the other outlet of the pressure storage water tank 6 enters the condenser 3 through the air source heat pump system water return pipe 31 for heating, completing the first cycle.
