The application-optimized Hydro MPC pressure booster range
The Grundfos Hydro MPC is an integrated packaged pumping system that offers an easier, less costly and more efficient alternative to field-built systems in both pressure boosting and HVAC applications. Pre-piped, pre-wired and pre-tested, this system includes pumps, motors, controls, VFDs and more for easier installation and commissioning, and unrivaled performance. Using intelligent controls and smaller pumps, the Hydro MPC harnesses the power of parallel pumping for greater flexibility, scalability and efficiency in ever-changing load conditions. This reduces energy consumption by more than 18% compared to other VFD HVAC and pressure boosting systems, providing substantial cost savings in the long run.
Think Differently about HVAC Pumping
When you’re working on demanding commercial hydronic heating applications, labor costs and system wear are important. That means you can’t think piece-by-piece. You need to think plug-and-pump.
And that means you need to think Hydro MPC HVAC pumping systems.
The pre-packaged Hydro MPC HVAC is ready when you are — there’s no need to build it yourself in the field. Intelligent controls and demand-responsive performance increase efficiency and decrease system wear from day one.
- Single source responsibility
- Pre-piped, pre-wired and pre-tested
- No on-site assembly
- No alignment needed
- Self-optimizing intelligent controls
- Easy BMS integration
Increased Efficiency, System Intelligence and Reduced Downtime
Grundfos brings a new level of pump intelligence to industrial applications and systems technology with solutions that look beyond individual components to the entire system.
For a growing chemical processing and distribution company that was experiencing downtime and costly repairs, Grundfos’ Hydro MPC BoosterpaQ — featuring the new CR 95 — offered the perfect solution. Grundfos’ deep industrial knowledge helped the company to identify this efficient system that is already saving the company more than $30,000 annually on rebuild and maintenance costs. The multi-pump controller and variable-speed drives adapt to the changing environment and plant needs.
Selecting the right equipment to meet your goals
Commercial water pumps affect the performance of all other components in a circulation system. This means pump selection is a vital step when you are designing or maintaining a commercial air-conditioning system.
When you choose a Grundfos solution, you get commercial water pumps and commercial water boost pump systems that are designed to deliver maximum efficiency with minimum energy consumption.
See Why The Right Innovation Means Less Complexity
We’re designing smarter HVAC pumping solutions that use data to control, optimize and adapt your entire system, without your intervention. And we’re delivering it in a complete, simplified setup that saves you time and energy.
Controls are the key to making sure the commercial heating system is operating properly. With intelligent controls from Grundfos, you will find it easy to collect and analyse data from across the system and use that data to control the energy used to run the system against real-time demand.
By using this approach, you can make sure that every dollar you spend on your commercial heating system is well spent. And just as importantly, you can operate the system with greater efficiency than ever before, so you may find that you make real savings during the lifetime of the system.
Our approach is simple with:
- Advanced design
- Precise control
- Ongoing optimization

Precise Control, Simple Setup
The industry’s most sophisticated algorithms and integrated sensors collect and process your building’s data to give you more control with less intervention.
- Manage full- and part-load conditions most efficiently with the combination of proportional pressure control mode, built-in sensors and ECM motors
- Minimize the effects of Delta T syndrome and building drift — without remote sensors
- Commission quickly with pre-configured control mode options that don’t require fine-tuning and multiple site visits
A Grundfos Difference: Proportional Pressure
Grundfos proportional pressure control mode automatically matches pump output to changing building flow demands, removing the guesswork for the most accurate performance with the easiest setup.
Lifetime Alignment from Grundfos Saves You Money
Did you know that only 7% of measured machines fall within acceptable alignment tolerances, leaving 93% of machines experiencing problems caused by misalignment, including:
- Increased energy consumption: As little as a 1.25mm offset can cause an 8% increase in energy consumption.
- Premature seal and bearing failure: Even just a 0.05mm offset reduces the seal wear life by 90%.
That is why Grundfos has engineered pumps like this to include a Lifetime Alignment Guarantee which will save you money and time over the lifetime of equipment.
Protect Your Systems with Pipe Filling
The Pipe Filling function, available in many of the intelligent booster system solutions from Grundfos, helps to protect your building by slowly filling and safely filling the pipes until the defined pressure is reached. This functionality gives you peace of mind since it protects against water hammer, leaks or bursting pipes. Watch the video to see how the Grundfos pipe filling protection works.
