The working principle and the technical effect of the embodiment are as follows:
working state one (heating mode of water heater):
as shown in fig. 3a, when the controller detects that the water flow at the water inlet end of the instantaneous electric water heater is the maximum water flow through the first flowmeter 9, and detects that the maximum heating temperature rise is greater than or equal to the temperature difference between the set maximum outlet water temperature and the inlet water temperature through the first thermocouple 10 and the second thermocouple 101, the first end and the second end of the four-way member 5 are opened, the first end and the second end of the electronic proportional valve are opened, the instantaneous electric water heater is started to enter the heating working state, so that the waterway channel is switched to:

Therefore, in a low-temperature environment, the running water with lower temperature and the water with higher temperature in the heat-preservation water storage tank are mixed according to a set proportion by the electronic proportional valve, and then the mixed water enters the instant electric water heater to be heated, so that the heating efficiency and the heating temperature can be greatly improved, the sufficient water supply can be ensured, the defects of the existing instant electric water heater can be overcome, the water using requirement in the low-temperature environment can be met, and the use experience of a user can be improved.
