UP and UPS offer versatility to match your heating demands 

The UP canned rotor circulator pump is specifically designed for heating systems, and is also suitable for hot water circulation or liquid in cooling and air-conditioning systems. It is available as small and medium for use typically in one or two family homes, and as large circulator pumps for use in large buildings such as schools, hospitals and hotels. All three sizes are available as single-head and twin-head pump types. 

UPS pumps are more advanced models operated at three different speeds and are used for central and district heating systems. Primarily used in one-pipe and two-pipe heating systems, UPS pump types are also suitable for mixing loops in large systems.

Solutions for buildings | Grundfos

The world’s increasing urbanisation is contributing to significant amounts of energy being used. The global cooling demand alone has doubled in less than 20 years. And water and energy go hand in hand. In general water pumps currently account for a huge amount of the world’s electricity consumption — but with more energy efficient pump solutions, this amount can be heavily reduced.

Solutions for industries | Grundfos

Despite rising demands for water and energy, we’re continuing to contaminate or waste our available resources. The availability of the world’s scarce water resources is increasingly limited due to the pollution of freshwater resources caused by the disposal of large quantities of insufficiently treated, or untreated, wastewater into rivers, lakes, aquifers and coastal waters. A total of 80% of all wastewater returns to nature without being properly treated.
