To promptly raise a temperature of hot water in a
cistern or a low-temperature outgoing
pipe, prevent stagnation of a flow of hot water in a primary
heat exchanger, and prevent boiling in the primary
heat exchanger.SOLUTION: A
hot water supply heater 1 includes: a heating circuit 4A including primary and secondary heat exchangers, a
cistern 33, a circulation pump 36, and connection
piping 30; and a controller 21. The connection
piping 30 includes a heating return
pipe 32, a first connection
pipe 47, a low-temperature outgoing pipe 49, a high-temperature outgoing pipe 58, and a bypass circuit 59. A reheating flow control valve 41 is provided in a reheating circuit 60 branched from the high-temperature outgoing pipe 58, and a flow regulation section 62 is provided in the bypass circuit 59. In the
hot water supply heater 1, the controller 21 controls a bypass thermomotive valve 61 so that the amount of hot water flowing from the primary
heat exchanger to the
cistern 33 is changed from a second flow rate to a first flow rate when a predetermined condition where a heat amount in the cistern 33 or the low-temperature outgoing pipe 49 becomes insufficient is satisfied, and maintains a reheating flow control valve 41 in an open state until a predetermined time elapses from start of the control.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
