Taco Pumps

Pumps are an integral part of any Hydronic system. The pumps are used to send water to an area of the hydronic system when required, or to keep the flow of water in the system. For proper installation the pumps should be purchased with a pair of flanges to connect to the water line. .

Taco Pumps are the best selling pumps on SupplyHouse.com. These pumps include the Taco Cast Iron Pumps, the Taco Cast Iron IFC Pumps, and the Taco Bronze Pumps. Taco Pumps are ideal for radiant heat systems. The may be used in the primary loop, or for zoning purposes they may be used along with a swithing relay and thermostats. The best selling Taco pump is the Taco 007 Cast Iron Circulator Pump.

The different models of pumps reflect the flow-rate and head loss that is needed by a given system. The Taco 007 Pump has 7 feet of head loss with a flow rate of 5 gpm. Essentially the greater the number of the Taco Pump the more fluid the pump can move. The more precisely the pump is sized to the system; the better the system will work. However, for most residential applications the best-suited Taco Pump is the Taco 007.
