Circulation pumps for heating and cooling

Circulation pumps for heating and cooling

Circulation pumps are designed to move water in closed hydronic heating and cooling systems. They provide a constant flow of hot or cooled water between the source (boiler, heat pump, chiller) and the consumers - radiators, underfloor heating, fan coils and other heat exchangers.

Unlike pumps that overcome great heights, circulation pumps primarily overcome hydraulic resistance in pipelines, radiators and heat exchangers, maintaining an even temperature distribution throughout the system.

Applications of circulation pumps

  • Heating systems with boiler, heat pump or radiators.
  • Underfloor and wall heating in residential and public buildings.
  • Cooling systems with chillers and fan coils.
  • Domestic hot water recirculation for faster access to hot water.
  • Hydronic air conditioning installations in commercial and industrial facilities.

How to choose a circulation pump

For proper selection, data is required on the type of system (heating, cooling, recirculation), the heat load or flow rate, the hydraulic resistance of the system, the operating temperature, the type of heat carrier and the control requirements (fixed speed, variable speed, timer, thermostat).

Modern variable speed circulation pumps automatically adapt the flow to the actual system demand and can significantly reduce electricity consumption compared to older fixed speed models.

Frequency Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a circulation pump?
A circulation pump is a device for moving water in a closed hydronic heating or cooling system. It ensures a continuous flow between the heat/cold source and the consumers.
What is a circulation pump used for in heating systems?
What is a circulation pump used for in cooling systems?
What is the difference between a circulator pump and a regular pump?
How does the circulation pump work?
Where is a circulation pump installed?
It is usually installed on the return or supply line of the hydronic system, near the heat/cold source (boiler, heat pump, chiller) or in the hot water recirculation loop.
What data is needed to select a circulation pump?
System type, heat load or flow rate, hydraulic resistance, operating temperature, type of heat carrier, and control and energy efficiency requirements are required.
Are there variable speed circulation pumps?
Yes, many modern circulation pumps have variable speed and automatically adapt the flow to the actual need of the system, which reduces electricity consumption.
Can a circulation pump also be used for domestic hot water?
