When it comes to hot water pumps, there are a few different options. One common option is a timer-based system. This System has a timer on a pump and is programmed to run for a certain amount of time every day, based on predicted use. The other is a System that operates only on demand; hot water is still available when needed, but the Pump only operates when activated by the user. Here’s some reasons why a System that runs on demand, like the D’MAND Kontrols ® System, is the better option.
Timer-based systems run to a set schedule by design. Often times they run close to 18 hours a day! That wastes a lot of power if there is no need for hot water for a majority of those 18 hours. Operating the pump that often can also cause a significant amount of wear and tear on pipes and the pump itself. Also, timer-based systems are susceptible to power outages, which can disrupt the schedule and lead to difficulty getting hot water.
D’MAND Kontrols ® Systems only run when needed. The end user activates the System when they need hot water and starts the pump. This means there is not only less noise, but less operating time (just minutes a day). Once hot water reaches the line, the integrated temperature sensor shuts the pump off. Our Systems limit wear and tear on plumbing when installed correctly, and frequently last upwards of 20 years. A five-year warranty provides further peace of mind and eliminates the wait at the tap.
