A part of water supplied from the water supply channel 1 from the bypass passage 4 is supplied through the bypass control valve 5 to adjust to a desired hot water, and a hot water supply circuit for discharging hot water from the hot water tap 6 is configured.

  Here, the burner 2 is supplied with fuel from a gas supply passage 10 provided with a gas source solenoid valve 7, a gas proportional valve 8, and a gas switching valve 9, and supplied with combustion air from a combustion fan 11, in advance. A combustion operation is performed according to a predetermined sequence. Then, the combustion gas generated by the combustion of the burner 2 passes through the combustion chamber 12, passes through the exhaust passage 13, and is discharged out of the instrument from the exhaust port 14.

  A hot water supply heat exchanger 15 that recovers sensible heat of the combustion gas and a latent heat recovery heat exchanger 16 that recovers the latent heat of the combustion exhaust gas are disposed in the exhaust path of the combustion gas.

The water supply side flow rate sensor 23 provided in the flow sensor detects water flow, the combustion fan 11 is operated by this water flow signal, the gas source solenoid valve 7 and the gas proportional valve 8 are opened at the same time, and fuel and combustion air are supplied to the burner 2. Is supplied and combustion starts by the ignition operation.

  At the time of simultaneous operation, the flow path switching means 33 is controlled so that the simultaneous passage side is opened as shown in the figure, and the high-temperature water heat exchanged by the heating heat exchanger 18 passes through the simultaneous path 32 and the flow path switching means 33. Bypass control that is led to the hot water supply passage 3 and disposed in a bypass passage 4 that is provided in communication with the hot water supply passage 1 and the hot water supply passage 3 so as to bypass the hot water supply heat exchanger 15 and the latent heat recovery heat exchanger 16. The water is mixed with the water on the incoming side by the valve 5. The opening of the bypass control valve 5 is adjusted by a signal from the hot water thermistor 25 so that the mixed hot water reaches a hot water supply set temperature set by the remote control remote controller 24, and hot water is supplied from the hot water tap 6 through the hot water connection port 26. .

  By configuring the water flow path during simultaneous operation in this way, there is no circulation pump 17 on the hot water supply path from the water supply path 1 to the hot water supply path 3 even during simultaneous operation, and the influence on the flow rate due to the pressure loss of the circulation pump 17. Therefore, it is possible to provide a hot water supply apparatus having good water pressure-water quantity characteristics even during simultaneous operation. Further, the discharge pressure of the circulation pump 17 is not applied to the flow rate switching means 33, and the flow rate switching means 33 should be considered in the pressure resistance performance against the same supply water pressure as when using a single supply water. Therefore, it is possible to provide a hot water supply device that is improved in durability and reliability.

  As described above, the hot water supply apparatus according to the present invention has a hot water supply and heating system, a hot water supply and a bath, or a hot water supply and a heating and a bath as a single heat source. Since it is possible to reduce the weight, the installation space is secured, the workability is improved, and the latent heat recovery heat exchanger is provided, so it is possible to achieve high efficiency and save energy by reducing running costs. It can also be applied to uses such as petroleum hot water bath equipment and hot water heaters.
