Grundfos, a renowned global leader in pump manufacturing, is set to revolutionize the residential heating sector by introducing its latest small circulators, the Grundfos ALPHA pumps. These innovative pumps, part of the Grundfos Digital NEXT series, are poised to set new industry standards with their cutting-edge design and exceptional performance.
Grundfos ALPHA HWR
The ALPHA HWR circulator is designed for domestic hot-water recirculation systems with a dedicated return line. It is equipped with an integrated sensor that accurately estimates temperature, eliminating the need for an aquastat. The circulator also features a built-in digital timer, enabling efficient scheduling of the pump’s on/off hours, contributing to energy savings when hot water is not needed in the home. Here are the HWR models:
- 15-29 SF/T (flange, pictured here at the top of the post)
- 15-55 SF/T (flange)
- 15-29 SU/T (union)
- 15-55 SU/T (union)
Notably, the toolless, removable power connector facilitates quick and easy installation. The circulator also integrates with Grundfos GO, providing the convenience of troubleshooting the system through the event log, running guided setup, setting custom control modes, and performing software updates. Moreover, the app offers historical trend data for flow, head, estimated media temperature, and on-cycle durations.
Some key features of the Grundfos ALPHA HWR circulator include:
- Built-in Bluetooth timer with battery backup
- Integrated temperature estimator
- Display readouts for flow, head, and watts
- Touch user interface
- FLOWSENSE
- AUTOADAPT
- Dry-running protection
The Grundfos GO app offers several features, such as guided setup tailored to specific applications, the ability to set constant, minimum, and maximum flow rates, scheduling, software updates, trend data display, event logs for warnings and alarms, and replacement compatibility checks. Additionally, the Grundfos HOME feature provides scheduling capabilities.
ALPHA CS
The ALPHA CS is a domestic hot-water recirculation pump system. It’s great for use without a dedicated return line. It includes a bypass valve with a thermal actuator and a built-in digital timer to schedule the pumps on/off hours. This saves energy when hot water is not needed. The system utilizes the existing cold-water supply line as a return line, eliminating the need for a separate new return line and requiring no electrical power under the sink.
Some key features of the product include:
- An integrated digital timer that removes the need for a physical programmable timer
- Homeowner scheduling via the Grundfos HOME app
- Plug and play control mode with AUTOADAPT
- Easier selection with the Grundfos GO replacement compatibility check
- Reduced risk of flow-accelerated corrosion with flow limit
- Reduced fluctuation in shower temperatures with FLOWSENSE
Additional features include a built-in Bluetooth timer with battery backup, a touch user interface, dry-running protection, and FLOWSENSE. The Grundfos GO offers a guided setup that recommends modes and settings for specific applications, the ability to set a constant flow, minimum flow, and maximum flow, scheduling, software updates, and trend data showing historical data for flow rate, head, media temperature, and on-cycle durations. It also provides an event log with an overview of warnings, alarms, and replacement compatibility checks. The Grundfos HOME app allows for scheduling.
