Not broken?
Replace it anyway!
Upgrade to an “A”. It pays.
There are over 120 million circulator pumps in
operation throughout Europe today. Most of
them are inefcient. Replacing those inefcient
pumps with new, A-rated alternatives will
reduce energy consumption by more than 70%.
So even if the pumps are not broken, replacing
them makes perfect sense.
Short payback times
Cutting energy consumption by more than 70%
has a real impact on electricity bills. In fact, the
payback time of an A-rated MAGNA replacing
a D-rated older pump can be as little as 18
months. That’s something to bear in mind for
future site visits.
Part of a wider picture
Taking active steps to replace inefcient, yet
functional pumps will not come naturally to
everyone. But pump replacement is part of a
bigger picture: The building becomes more
energy-efcient. System stress is reduced.
Comfort is heightened. And reliability is
enhanced.
And, if we take an even wider view, the energy
savings help reduce CO2 emissions, protecting
the environment for future generations. In
fact, if all 120 million circulators in Europe were
replaced, we would save 44 billion kWh. That’s
the same as the annual residential electricity
consumption of all the capitals of the EU put
together.
