  For example, in the example of FIG. 3A, in the house 6, the entire backside area (opposite to the front door) where the person does not enter or exit is normally used as the detection area 5 of the infrared sensor 4. Thus, it is possible to reliably detect a suspicious person or the like who is about to enter the house 6.

  Furthermore, as shown in the side view of FIG. 3B, when the infrared sensor 4 is provided at each of the position where the arrangement height is high and the position where the arrangement height is low, the detection area 5 can be widened, for example, the position where the arrangement height is low. When the detection is performed only by the infrared sensor 4, it is determined that a small animal such as a cat has passed, and when the detection is performed by both the infrared sensor 4 at a high position and the infrared sensor 4 at a low position. Thus, it is possible to realize a crime prevention system capable of appropriately grasping the situation, such as judging that it is human detection, and appropriately taking crime prevention measures corresponding to the situation.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4B, the separately arranged infrared sensor 4 includes an infrared light emitting unit 31 and an infrared light receiving unit 33 arranged with a distance from the light emitting unit 31. An infrared sensor having a detection area 5 in a region between the infrared light emitting unit 31 and the light receiving unit 33 may be used. In this case as well, the same effect as when the infrared sensor 4 of the type shown in FIG.

  Furthermore, you may arrange | position the said separate arrangement | positioning type | mold infrared sensor 4 in each place in the aspect surrounding the house 6 so that the person in the outer peripheral side whole area | region of the house 6 can be detected. In this case, for example, the human detection signal output unit 7 can distinguish and determine which one of the plurality of infrared sensors 4 is the detection signal, or one or more of the plurality of infrared sensors 4. If the infrared sensor 4 is selectively operated according to the time zone, a crime prevention system that can appropriately take measures against crime according to the situation can be realized.

  Furthermore, the crime prevention system of the present invention does not always operate the indoor electric load device when the human detection signal output unit 7 outputs a signal with human detection, but operates the shutter or the like as described above. Alternatively, the water heater 1 may be configured to perform the hot water filling operation on the bathtub in conjunction with each other. In other words, when the hot water filling is set and the machine is in the standby state, if the hot water filling is started when the human detection signal is output, it is possible to disguise the home of the householder. It will be advantageous.

  Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the heat exchange dwelling equipment provided with the person detection signal output unit 7 is the hot water heater 1, but the outdoor heat exchange dwelling equipment provided with the person detection signal output unit 7 may be used as a heating / cooling heat source machine or a co A heat source device such as a generation system may be used. Also in this case, the communication line 2 for transmitting the signal with human detection from the human detection signal output unit 7 to the remote control device 3 may or may not use the communication line for controlling the heat source device. It is preferable to use a communication line for controlling the heat source device as the wire 2 because it is easy to install and the cost can be reduced.

  Further, the outdoor heat exchange dwelling facility provided with the human detection signal output unit 7 is not necessarily a hot water supply heat source device such as the hot water heater 1 but may be a facility such as an outdoor unit of an air conditioner.

  Further, the remote control device 3 may be an energy saving type device that stops all functions including display when the power switch is operated. In this case, only the human detection sensor 27, the infrared sensor 4, and the human detection signal output unit 7 are turned ON, and when a signal “having human detection” is received from the human detection signal output unit 7, this signal is used to control the remote controller. By making the power switch of the device 3 ON so that the display can be displayed, both energy saving and crime prevention can be achieved.
