Title: Temporary water/energy flow reduction
Inventor: Peter Konowalczyk
IPC: F24H9/20
Filed: 2021-08-02
Abstract: A hot water system 100 providing heated water to an outlet (e.g. shower, tap) comprises a water heater remote from the outlets and a control unit 110 in communication with the water heater and a flow control device 130. When a user activates the outlet the control unit determines, via receipt of an input from a sensor 170, the presence of an object (e.g. hands of the user) in a stream of water output from the outlet. Based on the received input, the control unit operates the water heater and flow control device. Ideally, where the outlet is a tap, the control unit reduces the flow rate and/or temperature of water from the tap when the user has turned on the tap but the sensor does not detect an object, i.e. the hands of the user, under the tap to save water and energy. If the user’s hands are not detected for a long time the system may emit an alarm or shut-off water from the tap altogether. The water heater is ideally a thermal energy store 150 containing a phase change material (PCM) heated by a heat pump 140, with water being heated by thermal exchange with the PCM.
