When energy costs rise, efficiency becomes as important as comfort in a home heating system. Each year around this time, Pump Products Product Experts evaluate innovative heating pumps by Armstrong, Taco, Grundfos and the other premium manufacturers we represent and stock order the most efficient, reliable and cost-effective heating pumps they can find. Bell & Gosset Ecocirc circulators are these kinds of pumps.

“Bell & Gossett’s Ecocirc line provides homeowners with a great way to reduce their energy consumption and costly utility bills while improving their heating system’s performance,” says Product Expert Fred Hettinger. “More and more customers are looking for smart products that are easy to operate and maintain. The Ecocirc line provides this.”

B&G Ecocirc circulators improve on energy consuming induction motors with a high efficiency magnetic motor that eliminates the need for input power to magnetize the motor and provides greater starting torque than standard circulators offer. Shaft, seals and bearings have been eliminated — the rotor/impeller unit is the motor’s only moving part — minimizing wear and the need for servicing. A self-lubricating wet-rotor design is automatically cooled by pump media. A patented spherical design facilitates rotating the motor in any position and makes the electrical connection and the control dial easy to access.

Bell & Gossett Ecocirc circulator pumps are available in Auto and Vario models. Auto models self-adjust to the requirements of a heating system based on the curve the pump is set to on an adjustable dial. Ecocirc Vario models allow for manually setting the pump to individual system requirements.

Ecocirc Recirculators have the same energy-saving, shaft-free, high-performance design as the circulator pumps. These ultra-efficient units can run off of the same wattage as a night light and can save an average family of four more than 12,000 gal of water a year by eliminating the need to wait for the water to get hot. An award-winning design allows the Ecocirc recirculator pump to use 68% less energy than most standard pumps and can save a homeowner hundreds of dollars in energy costs a year. The unit is also available in a solar-powered model.
