Zusammenfassung:To provide a hot water storage type water heater which is advantageous for detecting water immersion during a flood properly.SOLUTION: A hot water storage type water heater includes: an outer shell case having a drain pan at a bottom part; a hot water storage tank disposed within the outer shell case; a drain component having a drain port for draining water received by the drain pan to the outside of the outer shell case; a water immersion detection sensor which has a detection part which detects contact of water to detect the outer shell case being immersed in water during a flood; and a sensor support component which supports the water immersion detection sensor. The sensor support component has a side wall part which covers a periphery of the detection part of the water immersion detection sensor, and the bottom surface side of the side wall part is open. A water passage, in which the water received by the drain pan passes when flowing to the drain port, is formed within the drain component. The side wall part of the sensor support component partitions the detection part of the water immersion detection sensor from the water passage.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】水害時の浸水を適切に検知する上で有利になる貯湯式給湯機を提供する。【解決手段】貯湯式給湯機は、ドレンパンを底部に有する外郭ケースと、外郭ケースの内部に配置された貯湯タンクと、ドレンパンが受けた水を外郭ケースの外へ排出する排水口を有するドレン排水部品と、水の接触を検知する検知部を有し、水害時に外郭ケースが浸水したことを検知する浸水検知センサと、浸水検知センサを支持するセンサ支持部品と、を備える。センサ支持部品は、浸水検知センサの検知部の周りを覆う側壁部を有し、側壁部の底面側が開口している。ドレンパンが受けた水が排水口へ流れるときに通る水流路がドレン排水部品の内部に形成される。センサ支持部品の側壁部は、浸水検知センサの検知部と、水流路との間を隔てる。【選択図】図4
