Every model of the D'MAND^® System can be activated by one or more methods. Regardless of which of the methods below is used, all D'MAND^® Systems include D'MAND^® Activation, a unique method of controlling the pump.

D'MAND Button

A small doorbell-type button connects to the electronic controller by a 12-volt, 18-gauge standard bell wire. These buttons may be placed at one or all locations where there is a demand for hot water. This type of activation is commonly used on new home construction or remodeling of existing homes.

Wireless Remote Control

A small receiver is connected to the master controller. Small remote control buttons can be placed at any location in the home. Working on radio frequencies, a signal can be transmitted up to 100' through walls. This method of activation is most common on existing homes where the wiring for the D'MAND button (mentioned above) is difficult to install.

Automatic Activation

Low voltage breakers can be placed on doors to allow for automatic activation when a door opens or closes. This is most commonly used for public restrooms in restaurants, factories, hospitals, etc.

Motion Sensor

Motion Sensors are adaptable to both new homes and existing homes. On new homes, they are hard-wired by low voltage wires to specific locations that require hot water use. For existing homes, wireless motion sensors are available that will send signals up to 100 feet to activate the D'MAND System. Motion Sensors are designed not to allow activation of a subject under 4 feet high or 40 pounds of weight.
