It is determined whether this estimated individual calculation flow rate Q newly appearing as a result of the increase / decrease process is included in the individual flow rate storage means 104 and whether it has been used for the first predetermined time (10 minutes). If it is not included and is used for 10 minutes or more, the notifying means or blocking means 106 is operated.

If this happens, the value will be different from the individual flow rate at the time of registration, and there may be cases where the registered individual flow rate will be deleted by mistake when deleting the registered individual flow rate. If this happens, the time limit for continuous use of the instrument will be shortened, and the gas shut-off valve will operate in a shorter time than expected to stop the gas supply. On the other hand, if the one with the larger registered individual flow rate is deleted and the remaining one is left, the continuous use time limit will be extended.

Since the correction process is performed, the actual flow rate decreased by the combustion amount control etc. may differ from the total value of the registered flow rate. In such a case, the total value of the registered flow rate may be different from the actual value.
- Monitoring is performed in a state larger than the flow rate, and the continuous use limit time of the appliance is shifted to a short time, leading to erroneous interruption. In other words, there is a problem that erroneous interruption cannot be prevented because monitoring different from the actual use flow rate is performed.

The change is determined from the average flow rate obtained this time and the previous average flow rate. Thereafter, the current average flow rate is stored in the flow rate change determination means 13 in time series. That is, the flow rate change determination unit 13 compares the average flow rate value calculated by the current average flow rate calculation unit 12 with the previous average flow rate to determine whether or not there is a predetermined change or more. It is determined whether there is a start or whether there is a flow rate change.

That is, using the average flow rate value output at a predetermined interval, the use of the appliance or the stoppage of the appliance is determined from the change state, and the flow rate change at the time of change is used as the registered flow rate of the appliance to be used.

If it is within the predetermined range, the difference between the registered flow rate and the reduced flow rate becomes an error between the actual flow rate and the registered flow rate.
- the flow rate when the water heater 4 is used, for example, when the past flow rate is zero, the flow rate changes to 1500 L / h or the like. If the rate of change or the amount of change is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, it is determined that there is a change, and some device is used, and is registered in the flow rate registration means 14.

- the flow rate registration means 14 deletes or reduces the closest flow rate registration value among the flow rates registered from the decreasing change flow rate. If the flow rate change amount does not match the registered flow rate value, find the smallest registered flow rate or the change rate between the registered flow rate and the difference between each registered flow rate and flow rate change amount. The small flow rate value is corrected to decrease by the flow rate change value, and it is determined as the flow rate change of the nearest instrument, and the registered value is changed in ascending order.

- the flow rate difference is positive, that is, when the average flow rate of using the appliance is larger than the registered total flow rate, it is determined that the registered flow rate is small, and the flow rate registration unit 14 registers the flow rate in the increasing flow rate registration unit 14a.
- the initial water temperature is high when the load at the initial stage of operation is large, when the load at the stable state is small, or at the shower.
- the hot water temperature stabilizes from the time when the difference between the temperature and the set temperature is large, the amount of combustion changes greatly.

- the usage flow rate of the water heater 4 is registered in the flow rate registration means 14 as the registered flow rate, that is, the average flow rate value at this time point.
- the combustion amount that is, the gas flow rate is controlled in a decreasing direction by proportional control, but there may be a gradual change, and the flow rate change determining means 13 cannot determine that there is a change. Change continues for a long time. In such a case, since the flow rate does not change, the registered value of the flow rate registration means 14 does not change.
- the flow rate change determining means 13 determines that the flow rate is decreasing, and the reduced flow rate registering means 14b deletes the registered flow rate corresponding to the decreased flow rate.
- the total value of the registered flow rate is calculated at each flow rate change determination timing or every time the average flow rate is obtained, and the flow rate difference is set so that the newly calculated average flow rate and the total value of the registered flow rate coincide with each other due to the instrument change. If there is a flow rate difference and the registered flow rate is low, it is registered as a new flow rate. Conversely, if the registered flow rate is large, the flow rate difference is corrected to be decreased from the registered flow rate with the smallest registered flow rate and re-registered.
