HOT WATE STORAGE TYPE WATER HEATER

PURPOSE:To give heat of a heat exchange uniformly to the fluid within the heat exchange part for heating by a method wherein the heat exchanger is located below eccentric to the axis center of a horizontal tube in the hot water storage type water heat. CONSTITUTION:When a gas burner 7 is fired at the heat exchanger 4, the heated air is flowed through baffle plates 6 in a horizontal tube body 5 and discharged from an exhaust pipe 8. When the heat exchanger 4 is heated, the heat exchanger 4 is heat-exchanged with the water within a hot water storage vessel 1 through the horizontal tube 9 and the water at the upper part of the hot water storage vessel 1 turns to be high temperature water. The heating can be accomplished by sending the heat to a heating apparatus due to the circulation of the water in the heating piping 11 as indicated with the arrows c with a circulating pump for heating being heat put in operation. In other words, the heating can be accomplished by receiving the from the heat exchanger 4 to the combustion of the gas burner 7 at the heat exchange part for heating 10. In this case, because the heat exchanger 4 is located below eccentric to the axis center of the horizontal tube 9, the water within the heat exchange part for heating 10 can be uniformly heated by the heat exchanger 4.
