US Patent 7856835 Hot water supply apparatus

The present invention provides a hot water supply apparatus capable of reducing energy consumption. That is, except during operation of heating water, when a detection temperature of a temperature sensor becomes equal to or lower than a set temperature, a circulating pump is operated and a compressor is operated at a second operating frequency having a lower frequency than a first operating frequency, thereby the compressor does not have to be repeatedly operated and stopped, and can be continuously operated in a state of reduced heating power.
