It is possible to effectively clean pets such as pets. The hot water spouting section 5 may be configured to have a wide width in the vertical and horizontal directions, or may be formed from a plurality of hot water spouting bodies 5a and 5b, as long as it can spray hot water widely in the vertical and horizontal directions.

Next, if the spouting part body 3 is supported in a position where the hot water spouting part 5 is in a substantially horizontal state, the hot water will be spouted directly below from the hot water spouting part 5 at a position away from the wall surface 1. You can place a washbasin directly below it and supply hot water in the same way as when using it.

Therefore, a faucet is not essential to the hot water mixing faucet section 2.

Therefore, instead of a faucet, the hot water mixing faucet 2 is equipped with a hose 1.
A hand-held shower head 11 can be connected through o, and in this case, the hand-held shower head 11 and the hot water spouting part 5 of the spouting part body 3 can be switched as necessary, etc. It can be used in a variety of ways. For example, when the device of the present invention is used as a cleaning device for pets, by using the hot water spouting section 5, it is possible to perform sufficient cleaning with a wide jet of hot water while using both hands to support the pet. In addition, by using the hand-held shower head 11, it is possible to wash areas that cannot be properly sprayed with hot water using the hot water spouting section 5 by applying hot water in a fine manner. Of course, instead of the hand-held shower head 11, a faucet can be provided in the hot water mixing faucet section 2.
