When the heating switch is turned on before bathing, high-temperature water circulates in the hot water heat exchanger, and this heat causes the heat storage material to undergo a phase change to start storing heat. When the heat storage material is sufficiently stored, the circulation of the hot water is stopped by a signal from the temperature sensor, for example. Thereafter, natural heat radiation from the heat storage material warms the apron or the sitting space and heats the bathroom. Eventually, when the heat radiation ends, the hot water circulates again according to the signal from the temperature sensor, stores the heat, and repeatedly heats the bathroom and warms the apron and the sitting space.

The surface area of a typical apron is 6,000.
There are two approximately 0 cm, when held the surface 50 ° C.,
A heating capacity of about 180 kcal / h is obtained, and this radiant heat is sufficient to warm a washing place side of about 15,000 cm 2 . The heating capacity can be changed by changing the melting point of the heat storage material according to the size of the bathroom and the surface area of the apron.
