Grundfos have been manufacturing heating pumps for the commercial and domestic industry since 1945.
The Grundfos Alpha2 is the latest in their range of domestic heating system pumps. Easy to install, they offer a compact and highly efficient answer to the question of heating water circulation. They also produce the Alpha2N. A stainless steel pump designed for Hot water System circulation.
The main addition to this range of pumps is the ‘Auto Adapt’ function which constantly monitors the demand asked of the pump. If radiators are shut during operation the pump speed will automatically slow down saving you energy and money. If the radiators are opened, the pump speed will automatically increase. This reduces homeowner and installer worries as to what pump to fit. This pump will adapt for the home and system it is in.
