(54)	Tap-water heating device and method for controlling it

(57) A method for controlling a tap-water heating device having a tap-water line (2) in a hot-water reservoir (1) comprises a temperature measurement at the inlet side of the tap-water line. The results of the temperature measurement are used to control the tap-water heating device. To this end, the latter device comprises a temperature sensor (3) which is arranged in a body (4) which exhibits good thermal conductivity and is in direct thermal contact with the inlet side of the tap-water line (2) and with the hot-water reservoir (1).
