However, when it is cold, that is, when the room temperature drops, the microcomputer 11 receives a low room temperature signal (for example, 0°) from the room temperature detection means 13.
C), the water stop solenoid valve 4 is opened regardless of the signal from the operation unit 12, and the tap water is diverted to the branch faucet 2. Water stop solenoid valve 4. It flows into the vacuum breaker 14 and sub-channel 16 to prevent freezing. Further, when an extremely low temperature signal (for example, -10°C or less) is input to the microcomputer 11 from the room temperature detection means 13, the microcomputer 11 activates the water stop solenoid valve 4. The flow rate control valve 6° and the switching valve 7 or 9 are opened, and tap water is added to the sub-channel 15 and flows to the hot water tank 6 via the flow rate control valve 6. Therefore, the hot water heated in the hot water tank 6 is passed through the switching valve 7 or 9. It flows through the cleaning unit 9 and from the cleaning nozzle 8 or 9 into the toilet bowl, which also prevents the toilet device and the toilet bowl from freezing. At this time, the opening degree of the flow rate control valve 5 is set to a low flow rate, which is at a level at which water leaks from the cleaning nozzle 8 or 1o into the toilet bowl.
