An electrically driven towel or hot towel supply apparatus formed so as to prevent the water to be supplied to a feed water nozzle from running out, and the hot water in a feed water tank from growing cold. The apparatus has a wetting unit provided with a feed water nozzle and adapted to wet roll paper over a predetermined length, a feed water tank for supplying water to the feed water nozzle, and a hot water supply unit for supplying hot water of a desired temperature to the feed water tank. The wetting unit has an auxiliary roller and a wetting roller rotating in contact with the auxiliary roller, in which a liquid supplier from the feed water nozzle is supplied to the surface of the wetting roller via the auxiliary roller to wet the same surface uniformly. The wetting water can be replenished suitably by a water supply unit. Water of a desired temperature is replenished by the hot water supply unit. Accordingly the temperature of the water in the feed water tank can be maintained, and a failure to feed a hot towel due to an excessive decrease in the temperature of the wetting liquid can be prevented. |
