PURPOSE: To prevent useless consumption of power in a display element during a time when an operation is not conducted by a system wherein a time counting element counts a time set beforehand, when an operating element of a remote control device is operated, and a power source control element stops supply of a power to the display element when the time count is completed.
CONSTITUTION: The main body 1 of a hot water feeder is equipped with a main body transmission-reception element 3 interchanging monitor information and setting information with a remote control device 2A, and with a state setting element 4 for setting a state of operation on the basis of the setting information from the remote control device 2A. The remote control device 2A is equipped with a time counting element 9, and this time counting element 9 counts a time set beforehand, when an operating element 5A is operated, and controls a power source control element 8A when the time count is completed, so that the power source control element 8A may not supply a power to a display element 7. In other words, the display element 7 of the remote control device 2A displays the state of operation of the main body 1 of the hot water feeder on the basis of the monitor information, and when the time count of the time counting element 9 is completed, the power source control element 8A stops supply of the power to the display element 7. By this system, the power of the remote control device 2A can be saved.
