Customer Reviews for VEVOR Hot Water Recirculating Pump, 120W 110V Water Circulator Pump, Automatic Start Circulating Pump NPT 3/4\" with Brass Fittings, Stainless Steel Head, 2 Speed Control for Electric Water Heater Sys

I bought this for a little domestic recirculation project I did in my basement. It has worked well for months now so far. I would recommend this to anyone in need of a pump.

If you need a low powered pump that’s quiet this is a good choice. This is not a powerful pump, but works well. Don’t know about longevity yet. The auto on feature does a good job cutting pump on when water flows. There is confusion about the threads. These are straight threads meant to be used with a washer seal, unlike tapered npt threads that seal when the threads tighten. 3/4 female iron pipe fittings FIP will screw on the pump with no problems. They seal with a rubber washer.

This pump was a direct replacement to a hot tub circulation pump that cost between $175 to $250 to replace. It needed basic pvc and brass pieces to complete and it slid right into my tub perfectly. I run it on the lowest speed. Speed 3 is pretty decent output, but for a 4 man tub, speed one is sufficient. Still better output for heater and ozinator bubbler than the old one. $31.00 vs. $200 and up? No contest. Great components and runs absolutely silent. I had to add a ground wire terminal to the body by using existing screw on motor body cover, but it is double bonded, and double grounded.

Bought straight thread to NPT adaptors-worked perfectly with no leaks.

I am a contractor so from my prospective it was easy to install. Overall I give it a 5 but individually quality is 3.5, price is a 10 and installing a 4, - also I bought 2 the other one is for my cnc plasma table fluid filtration system. I needed to get a 3/4” union for the pump to water heater but that’s normal with most pumps. For the low price of $35 the quality is great. It does have flaws its not perfect but if you are on a budget thes is i great pump and wow save you on waisted water and gas to heat it. I installed it on my water heater witch is the preferred installation. I used an inexpensive valve at the fertherest bathroom sink. But I recommend buying the stainless steal valve. Installation including the bypass valve tool 20 minutes I already had electric at the water heater. My only concern is it says it’s automatic on off but so far it on all the time. So I’m going to install a dusk to dawn Timmie and if it continues to run all day I’ll add ap pressure sensor switch or it may be the plastic bypass valve not shutting off if so an other reason to go with the better SS valve. But the pump is worth the $.

Excellent VEVOR my encant I recommend the equipment to you. My sister Silvio, it was very useful for her house in Cuba. Thank you very much.

I gave it a four star rating because it did help getting my hot water sooner but still not that quick. I had to install a timer in order to get hot water quicker. With the timer I would set it at least 30 minutes before I would take a shower then set it when you want it to turn off.

Price was lower than I expected to find, delivery was within suitable time and it probably took me 30 to 45 minutes to complete the installation and at least 20 minutes of that was because I had to go find and replace a valve on the other end of the line. That had nothing to do with the pump, just part of the job. I was as pleased with this replacement as much as anything I have ever bought.

The included couplings threaded perfectly into adapters I had on hand for NH hose fittings. Works perfectly for my purpose, draining a water heater. Didn't measure, but I believe it pumped almost 10 GPM on high speed.

For the price, you can't beat it. It's pretty quiet, it's cast iron body. For people who are trying to find adaptors for this pump, I don't understand you. You have to use unions that come with it. Then either go 3/4\" female over it or sweat 1/2\" pipe right into it, which I prefer better. Takes about 5 minutes to install this pump. I'm a professional plumber and I plumb houses for a living.
