Abstract (en)

Provided is a hot-water supply unit (100), comprising: a housing (200); a tank (300); thermal insulator (400) substantially surrounding the tank; a heating mechanism (700) disposed within a machine space (110) formed by the housing and positioned above the thermal insulator; an electric component unit (800) disposed within the machine space and having a component box (810, 820) accommodating an electric component. The housing and the thermal insulator form a clearance space (120) extending at least from the lower end of the thermal insulator to the upper end of the thermal insulator. The housing defines a first housing opening (242), and is configured such that the clearance space communicates with the outside of the housing via the first housing opening. The component box is configured such that the inside of the component box communicates with the outside of the housing via the first housing opening.
