Sponsored thread - old style (non ErP) pumps

[Ray Stafford]

Just testing the water here.

Would there still be an interest in a non ErP domestic central heating pump?

It would be a very well known make (but not Grundfos) and I was thinking of marketing them at 4no x 6m head pumps for £99 + VAT. IE under £25 each, but a minimum purchase of 4 pumps.

Its perfectly legal - just a cache of pumps that the guys who wrote the regs overlooked. Our minimum 2 year product warranty would apply.

The response here and elsewhere on social media will determine whether we go for the deal. I don't want a load of pumps on the shelf that no one will buy!

I think its a great deal for the call out boys. And with winter just around the corner it's perfect timing. They're not those DAB pumps are they?! They were cheap but utter pap.

I'm in as long as they're a straight swap for Grundfos.

So they are green ones?! You see this is why I'm trusted!

 

[Rckape]

I'd be interested in some of that Ray

 

[Destroyer2813]

Yep in for that as well

 

[Ray Stafford]

Ok, thanks for that guys, thats a good positive sentiment, so we will press on with negotiations. I'll update you if and when we are successful.

free biccies as well, seems a good idea ray

 

[gasmanrob]

Personally I believe wilo are a far better pump then grundfoss any way

 

[solutions]

Nice deal, will have me some of those if you pull it off Ray. Might even pay with a big cheque as hear thats your prefered form of bribe / payment.

 

[smtplumbing]

can these fit right on grundfos bodys eg head swap

 

[gasmanrob]

The head only version used to come with an adaptor plate don't know if that's still the case.

The complete pump will fit straight in the gap of the pump unions but the casting at the back is about 10mm thicker so if it's close to a wall you may need to chip a bit of wall away
