Electric water heater

Abstract

The invention relates to an electric water heater capable of preventing the water supplied to the hot water tank and the high-temperature hot water in the upper part of the hot water tank from mixing, and capable of preventing the temperature of the hot water from being lowered by the supply of water. The electric water heater according to the invention includes; a hot water tank (10) positioned so that the virtual central line X of its cylindrical body (11) is oriented horizontally; a heating device (20) made in the hot water tank (10) to heat the water; The water supply pipe (40) is connected to the body (11) to supply water to the hot water tank (10), in which the heating device (20) includes a parallel heating element (24) consisting of a pair of electric heating elements arranged side-by-side parallel to the virtual radial line X, the water supply of the water supply pipe (40) is made with the diffusion part to diffuse the water supplied from the water supply pipe (40) into the hot water tank (10), and the diffuser (70) is positioned lower than the parallel heat sink (24).
