Various pumps can be found in hot water and heating systems. For example, filling and discharge pumps, expansion tank pumps, supply pumps and condensate pumps. However, the most common type of pump in boiler rooms is the circulation pump. In a utility building subject to the information requirement, you will normally find several circulation pumps. The number and size of pumps depends on the installation and its setting, as well as the distance and height difference the water needs to overcome.
It is important to perform regular maintenance on the pumps to extend their life and prevent problems.For this reason, pumps are often not insulated and a lot of heat is lost. A good solution to save energy are insulation mattresses around your pumps.
Temket universal insulation mattresses
The Temket Universal Line is a range of universal insulation mattresses specially developed for boiler rooms in utilities. The insulation mattresses are made of high-quality insulation materials that have excellent thermal properties. With an insulation mattress, a circulating pump loses less heat, reducing the amount of energy required to deliver the desired performance.
The universal sizes are tailored to the most common pumps you find in a boiler room. They can be used for new pumps of well-known brands such as Grundfos, Remeha, Vaillant, Wilo, DAB and Biral, but also for older pumps of lesser-known brands. This eliminates the need for pre-measurement on site. The handy Velcro closure of the insulation mattresses also keeps the pumps easily accessible for inspection.
Prevent heat transfer and energy loss
Insulating mattresses for pumps play a crucial role in minimising heat loss by preventing heat transfer to the environment. This is particularly important in utility buildings where pumps are often in continuous operation and consume large amounts of energy. But it also ensures a pleasant and safe working environment. Installing insulation mattresses around pumps is an investment that pays for itself through energy savings and improved comfort and well-being. Calculate the payback period, energy savings and CO2 reduction through insulation mattresses easily with our calculator.
Insulating mattresses for pumps in various sizes
Universal insulation mattresses for pumps are available in two sizes (types B1 and B2), based on the DN size or dimension of the pump. The B1 mattress is suitable for insulating medium-sized pumps up to DN-32. The B2 insulation mattress is applicable for larger pumps up to DN-100. You can find the maximum sizes of the pumps compatible with the corresponding insulation mattresses on the product pages.
Easy to install yourself
Another important advantage of Temket insulation mattresses for pumps is their easy installation. The universal insulation mattresses can be easily attached using Velcro and drawstrings. This makes pump maintenance and inspection easier, as the insulation mattresses can be easily removed and also reattached quickly and efficiently.
