heating, ventilation & services; insulation High efficiency – the only game in town!
Using high-efficiency pumps is a particularly energy-saving way to meet nearly every performance requirement for glandless pumps in heating and air-conditioning applications. Their widespread use can contribute massively to climate protection. Wilo continues to try to persuade architects and house builders that a new high-efficiency pump is an essential investment. As well as meeting the require- ments of the ErP Directive, it will reduce energy bills by up to £100 a year.
