Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0165186A1] This invention describes a method for heating water to be used for sanitary purposes in a storage tank (5) and certain pieces of equipment which implement this method. The invention's main feature is that when the cold water from the main water supply system enters the said storage tank (5), it is forced to pass across a portion (15.b) of a heat exchanger (15), which is sufficiently powerful to bring the said water immediately up to, or very close to, the usage temperature. The said heat exchanger (15) also heats up the water during the storage phases. The advantage of this invention is that the negative effects of the mixing of the cold incoming water with the already heated water in the storage tank (5) are either eliminated or significantly reduced.
