Disclosed is a hot water discharging apparatus. A hot water discharging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a water heater for heating water that has flowed into hot water, and discharging the hot water; and a hot water discharge unit that is connected to the water heater so that the hot water discharged from the water heater is discharged to the outside, wherein the water heater is provided with an outlet through which the hot water is discharged, the hot water discharge unit includes a hot water discharge member connected to the outside so that the hot water is discharged to the outside, and the water heater may be disposed so that the outlet is located higher than the hot water discharge-side end of the hot water discharge member.

A filtration apparatus includes a flow path, a valve provided on the flow path, a first light source configured to emit a first light including ultraviolet (UV) light toward the flow path, a second light source configured to emit a second light including visible light or infrared light toward the flow path, a first optical sensor located out of a path of the first light and the second light, electrodes provided on the flow path, and a processor electrically coupled to the valve, the first light source, the second light source, the first optical sensor, and the electrodes. The processor is configured to alternately operate the first light source and the second light source, receive a first signal from the first optical sensor while the first light source emits the first light, and control the valve and the electrodes to sterilize the flow path based on the first signal.

A domestic water tap (1000) is disclosed. The present application relates to a tap and an inner body for routing liquid within a tap, for example, a domestic water tap or faucet. The domestic water tap (1000) comprises an outer body (1010, 1012) and an inner body (100). The inner body (100) is housed within the outer body (1010, 1012). The outer body (1010, 1012) comprises at least one flow channel (1020, 1022) in which water can flow through the tap (1000) without contacting the outer body (1010, 1012). The inner body (100) is made from plastics and comprises at least one non-threaded bore for securely receiving a connector for delivering water from a source into the inner body (100).

A system and method for controlling microbiological growth in a water system and premise plumbing system which uses stabilized hydrogen peroxide as a disinfectant and maintains water energy matrix control. Maintenance of stable hydrogen peroxide residual in the system in combination with active temperature monitoring enables better control of the water energy matrix and reduction of hot water temperature while maintaining microbiological control.

A mains connectable water tap comprising a water supply inlet, a tap outlet and a flow regulator for regulating the flow of water through the water tap from the water supply inlet to the tap outlet. The tap further comprises a beverage making section, which has an inlet, a cavity section having a sealable access aperture therein and an outlet. The inlet is in fluid communication with the outlet via the cavity section and the sealable access aperture provides access to the cavity to allow the insertion or removal of beverage ingredients.

The present invention relates to a water distribution system with hygienisation capacity. According to a first aspect, the present invention describes a water distribution system (I) comprising a water supply, a heating source (IO0) or a point of inflow of externally heated water, at least one sensor measuring water quality, a flow path for water with a user outflow UO, and a control unit for operation of the water distribution system (1), said at least one sensor measuring water quality being connected to the control unit, wherein the water distribution system (I) comprises tubing in a tubing system where at least one portion of the tubing system in the water distribution system (1) comprises a tubing portion which is made of a plastic material comprising silver and/or zinc to provide an inner anti-biofilm of that tubing portion.
