LAING Autocirc Pump with Timer and Cord Review

LAING Autocirc Pump with Timer and Cord
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Installed this pump in three steps. First, installed a 115-volt outlet under the sink that was farthest from the water heater, a distance of about 50 feet. There were three other sinks and two showers all hooked to the hot water pipe that ran between this farthest sink and the water heater. Second, I insulated the hot water pipes leading from the water heater to this farthest sink. Most of these hot water pipes were located in a suspended ceiling. If the pipes were in a wall, I ignored trying to insulate them, figuring the wall was enough insulation. Third, I installed the pump under the sink. I set the timer to operate whenever I plan on using hot water in any of the sinks (i.e., 0600-2400). I have had the pump installed for about a year and appreciate it every day. When the water at the sink cools to 85 degrees, the pump cycles "on." When the water temperature reaches 95 degrees at the sink, the pump cycles "off." The water from the hot water side gets pumped to the cold water side so that the cold water is about 90 degrees, but that water cools rapidly. When the cold water faucet is turned "on," the cooler water quickly gets to the faucet. This pump is perfect for my needs.

Grundfos UP15-10SU7P/TLC Comfort Series 1/25 HP Recirculator Pump (595916) Review

My plumber installed a Grundfos comfort system ( pipe and valve) for a guest bath, meaning I had hoped to use the timer on the pump and not have the pump on 24hours a day 7 days a week, but rather on only when I had guests and other wise the pump would be would be off. Turns out my situation is not a good fit for this system's characteristics. Using it the way I hoped to I have ALOT of hot water in the cold supply when the pump is off. When the warm supply is cool to cold the Comfort Valve is Wide open (ie a gallon or so a minute flow) and puts way too much hot water in the cold water supply, for the faucet where it is installed and critically other nearby faucets, which suffer from back flow as well . So now rather than wait for the hot water supply to deliver warm water .We have to wait for the cold water supply to supply cold on nearby faucets. The product reference material from GRUNDFOS doesn't point this out, if it had I would have done something different. My Plumber and I both spoke to Grunfos tech support on this one. THUMBS DOWN to Grundfos for not identifying situations where this system is not a fit.

I have had this installed about a month and it is working great. It dropped a 2-3 minute wait for hot water to a few seconds. I would advise a plumber to help install it. The only reason I did not give it five stars was because it takes several seconds to get cold water from teh cold water side. However, this is the only downside!

I had this same model in my house from seven years ago and was looking for an exact replacement so that I wouldn't have to change the plumbing. While this part was slightly different I was able to leave the original plumbing in place and just screw on the replacement motor. The timer assembly is easier to read than the original. One thing that was different was an additional dial on the body of the pump casing (not shown in the picture). The instructions didn't say what that setting was for so I just left it at the factory setting. Worked ok.

Laing E1 ecocirc Recirculating Pump Review

The kitchen sink is on the completely opposite side of our house from the water heater. It seemingly took forever for any hot water to get there. Now there is warm water instantly and hot water is just seconds behind. It has been extremely nice this winter, avoiding freezing water from the tap.
Cheaper recirculating pumps utilize a a plastic valve under the sink that will wear out and need replacement. The body of the valve in this pump is brass and looks like it will last for a very long time.

The auto circpump is installed under the sink or faucet farthest from the water heater - wherehot water usually takes the longest amount of time to arrive. A built-in temperature sensor automatically turns the autocirc pump on when the watertemperature in the hot water supply line cools down to 85º F. This cool water in the hot water supplyline is then pumped into the cold water line and back into the water heater. The autocirc pump turns off automatically when the hot water supply line to the faucet reaches a temperature of 95º F, ensuring the instant availability of shower warm water with maximum temperature hot water only seconds behind. When the pump is automatically turned off by the built-in thermostat, an auto closure device prevents hot or cold water from mixing in either supply line.Another beneficial feature is that hot water will also be instantly available at all other faucets in the supply line between the water heater and the faucet where the autocirc pump is installed.
