To provide a technique capable of suppressing power consumption while maintaining a state where communication between a heater and an external device using a communication module can be executed.SOLUTION: A heater comprises: a main control unit that is connected to a power supply unit, and controls the operation of the heater; a communication module that is connected to the power supply unit, and can execute communication with an external device; and a switching unit that is arranged between the main control unit and the power supply unit, and can switch between a supply state in which power is supplied from power supply unit to the main control unit and a cut-off state in which power supply from the power supply unit to the main control unit is stopped. The power is constantly supplied to the communication module from the power supply unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】熱機器において、通信モジュールを利用した外部機器との通信を実行可能な状態を維持しつつ、消費電力を抑制できる技術を提供する。【解決手段】熱機器は、電源部に接続されており、熱機器の動作を制御するメイン制御部と、電源部に接続されており、外部機器と通信を実行可能な通信モジュールと、メイン制御部と電源部との間に配置され、電源部からメイン制御部に電力が供給される供給状態と、電源部からメイン制御部への電力の供給が停止される遮断状態と、の間で切り替え可能な切替部と、を備える。通信モジュールには、電源部から電力が常時供給される。【選択図】図２
