  • Publication number: 20120061483
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a hot/cold water supply system with an improved control part. Cold water that has remained in a pipe is re-circulated through a circulating water pipe and is re-supplied into and heated by a boiler rather than being discharged out of a faucet, and the temperature of the water is adjusted in a thermo-and-geared valve to a temperature preset by a user so that water with a low temperature deviation can be supplied to the user. Further, an excessive load is prevented from being applied to the thermo-and-geared valve. Water of different temperatures preset by users can be supplied to corresponding control zones. A sudden deviation in temperature can be prevented when the boiler re-ignites. When the temperature of water reaches a preset temperature, a control panel indicates it to the user on a display and/or by providing a sound, thus making it more convenient to use.

  • Publication number: 20110042468
    Abstract: [Technical Problem] The discharge of mixed hot and cold water by means of a manually operated faucet handle or a manual control valve is not convenient to get an optimum temperature as the temperature of discharged water varies from user to user, and because the temperature of discharged water changes while in use, users have to operate the faucet handle again until an optimum temperature is realized. [Technical Solution] Meanwhile, the temperature-controlled mixed water and hot/cold water supply system of the present invention is designed to have start-up/stop control over a water heater and the control over a circulating water pump such that mixed water having a user-set temperature may be provided via respective water spouts that are installed in a shared bathroom, a kitchen, a private bathroom and a laundry room, respectively, thereby discharging mixed water having a preset temperature ready for immediate use.
