How can you identify a B&G pump?
Need to identify a Bell & Gossett pump for repair or replacement? You can identify a B&G pump using the information on the pump’s name tag. If the tag is missing, use the casting number on the body/volute of the pump.
How do I choose a circulating pump?
Flow rate: Calculate your desired flow rate by multiplying the total volume by the time in which you want to move the liquid. For example, for a 500-gallon pond that needs full circulation once an hour, you would want to select a pump with a minimum rated flow rate of 500 GPH (gallon per hour).
What is the difference between a pump and a circulator?
A bicycle pump is a pump. So is an oil pump on an oil burner. When those machines start, you expect to get a pressure on the outlet side of the pump that’s greater than the pressure on the inlet side of the pump. A circulator is different because it’s working within a closed, pressurized hydronic system.

What does head range mean?
This is the vertical distance that you are able to pump the liquid. Say your pump is rated for a maximum head of 100 feet, this does not mean that you are restricted to100 feet of pipe, you could use 300 feet, so long as the final discharge point is not higher than 100 feet above the liquid being pumped.
How long do circulators last?
5 to 10 years
A typical Taco circulator pump usually last from 5 to 10 years unless leaks are left unchecked.
Do circulator pumps use a lot of electricity?
Without a timer on the recirc pump it will run 24/7 and at up to 80 watts/hour (or 1,920 watts /day and 57,600 watts/month). And it will also waste copious amounts of natural gas since it is continually drawing on the hot water heater (usually heated by gas.
What does a circulator pump do on a boiler?
The circulator pump contains an electric-powered impeller motor that removes the hot water from the tank to circulate through the pipes to the baseboard heaters or radiators. At the same time, the pump draws in cold water to start the heating cycle.
What is the difference between Wi-Fi and other wireless standards?
The key difference between Wi-Fi and other wireless standards, however, lies in their transmission frequency. FM and AM radio stations broadcast at low frequencies, typically around 100MHz (megahertz). Wi-Fi, on the other hand, operates exclusively in the gigahertz (GHz) range.
What is the difference between wireless G and wireless B?
It’s the same with Wireless B in terms of frequency (2.4GHz). However, it’s much faster because the internet speed can go up to 54 Mbps. You can also have a stronger WiFi signal even when you’re at a distance of 125 feet. Wireless G was released publicly in 2003, not far away from 1999.
What is Wi-Fi and how does it work?
Wi-Fi is a wireless communication standard, not unlike television or radio broadcasts. The key difference between Wi-Fi and other wireless standards, however, lies in their transmission frequency. FM and AM radio stations broadcast at low frequencies, typically around 100MHz (megahertz).
What is dual-band Wi-Fi?
The generation of Wi-Fi that first signaled popular use, 802.11ac utilizes dual-band wireless technology, supporting simultaneous connections on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands. 802.11ac offers backward compatibility to 802.11b/g/n and bandwidth rated up to 1300 Mbps on the 5 GHz band plus up to 450 Mbps on 2.4 GHz.
