<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To sufficiently enhance sterilization performance in a hot water storage tank (41) even if a temperature of hot water in the hot water storage tank reaches a temperature decomposing a hypochlorous acid, in a hot water supply system including the hot water storage tank storing hot water, a hot water delivery flow passage delivering hot water stored in the hot water storage tank (41) to use equipment and a water purification unit (60) purifying water in the hot water storage tank (41). <P>SOLUTION: The water purification unit (60) includes: a discharge part (62) having a pair of electrodes (64, 65) generating streamer discharge in water in the hot water storage tank (41); and a DC power source (70) applying DC voltages to the pair of electrodes (64, 65). By the streamer discharge, hydrogen peroxide is produced in the water in the hot water storage tank (41). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
