Great product generates huge savings for DIY'ers
By W. Littlejohn
Boiler radiant heating system went down last winter and repairman said it was bad pump....wanted $1700 to fix....couldn't afford that so had him wall off that pump and we lived without that zone for rest of winter while saving for repair....then I began looking into doing repair myselfThe Taco pump replaces the exact same item that failed...info I found on web said that is always good idea. Part was listed at $700 by repairman....I got for just over $100 from Amazon....so savings are huge just for part. Works great so far and shipping was quick.As for install....well trial and error was the key.I couldn't figure out how to keep air from getting in system during install.....there is some kind of a a switch or intake valve I just couldn't find....and right after install (very easy step) the pump knocked badly and then wouldn't seem to work....(I think it was "air bound") I finally tried draining the water & air in just that zone and tons of gook came out along with the water....then let boiler send water to just that zone...and it worked....opened up all the rest of the system valves and now have heat throughoutAs you can tell I'm a non-expert handyman....but willing to try. The Internet has great information....and even though I couldn't understand all of it at first...through good old trial and error I figured it out and saved $1500. Need to understand what each pipe does in system to make it work (feed vs returns). It took a couple of days but was well worth it.Good luck

These run forever
By Pat Garrett
I installed this pump in my home made hot water baseboard heating system. Because it is heated from my wood burner the pump has to run all the time. I was surprised how quiet it is. can't hear it at all. Been running non stop now for 3 months and still as quiet as when I installed it. These things are really well made

Very easy and convenient
By Betty Lawhite
When the circulator pump in my gas boiler failed I thought I was going to need a plumber to replace it, but true to the ad, this cartridge was a do-it-yourselfer project, no experience needed.
