If you are in the market for a new pump for your home's heating system, you might consider purchasing an Energy Efficient Circulating Water Pump. These small, in-line pumps can save up to 75 percent on your utility bills. Using only 35 percent of your battery bank energy, they provide a more economical way to circulate water in your home.
The circulator is an electrically powered pump that helps to circulate water in a heating or cooling system. It is used in domestic hot water, air conditioning, and hydronic systems.
Today's circulators are highly efficient. Modern pumps are quiet and compact. Their designs feature a rotor/impeller that eliminates the conventional shaft and bearing assembly. Unlike the three-speed pump, which runs non-stop, modern circulators adjust their output to the changing demand.
Some circulators have built-in timers that can limit operation during specific hours. This helps to cut down on waste, as well as increase the overall efficiency of your heating system.
A circulating pump also increases the temperature difference between the water leaving your boiler and the water returning. As a result, you can save on your electric bill by adjusting your flow rate.
Another energy-efficient feature is the use of a temperature probe that helps to reduce energy wastage in your heating return pipe. This allows you to monitor the temperature of the water contacting the probe.
