Hot Water Recirculation Timer
The Smart Countdown Control hot water recirculation timer is a simple solution to the on-demand problem for houses that already have a Watts Instant Hot Water System, Grundfos Comfort System, Taco Hot-Link System, or any system that uses the plastic style of thermostatic crossover valve. This controller monitors your hot water line and when it senses flow it turns the pump on for a preset amount of time. The default is 5 minutes but this can easily be configured for up to 15 minutes with the smart phone app. Once the system runs for its preset period of time, it will turn the pump off and not run again for a user configurable period of time called the dormant period. The default dormant period is 10 minutes, but can be configured for up to 30 minutes with the smart phone app.
This hot water recirculation timer controller also has timer functionality that, when active, will run the system for the countdown period and then go dormant for the dormant period. This way, even during times when the timer is active, the pump will not be running constantly. The timers are configured via the smart phone app.
It couldn't be simpler!
This is the easiest way to upgrade a thermostatic system to an on demand hot water system.
These types of systems work well for homes that have multiple dead end runs. You would install a thermostatic crossover valve at the end of each dead end run and a single pump at the water heater and both runs will heat up.
