e-place don't replace

According to Grundfos, taking the
opportunity to review the situation
when a pump needs replacing is
rarely taken. Instead the pump is
replaced with a 'like for like' pump,
which means the opportunity to gain
efficiency, save energy and improve
comfort levels is lost.
When replacing a pump there are several points that should be considered, but perhaps the most important should be whether there is an opportunity to replace with a variable speed option that will only work as hard as it needs to. This can, says Grundfos, save up to 80%+ of the energy required over a fixed speed counterpart.
Grundfos Pumps has been a frontrunner in developing variable speed technology and can provide a wide range of reliable pump solutions.
