See how The Museum of Flight saved 74% in pumping energy with Grundfos Distributed Pumping
Most chilled-water systems use large centralized pumps and chillers controlled by valves. These valves waste loads of energy and make it difficult to balance the system correctly. Grundfos Distributed Pumping replaces traditional balance and control valves with intelligent pumps that adjust speed according to demand. This means the hydronic system is equipped with components that provide the perfect flow at the right pressure, automatically balancing the system, resulting in easier operation and control, and improved comfort without wasting any energy.
74% energy savings
Grundfos Distributed Pumping helped The Museum of Flight in Seattle achieve 20% Delta T optimization at the chiller and save $14,000 annually in energy savings – all while maintaining exact temperature in a six-story, glass-walled gallery.
