My husband installed this onto our water heater after our last pump went out. I was spoiled and got used to having hot water instantly. This one was much cheaper than the last one we had a plumber put on and it works just as well.

This was for my hot water circulation system. It replaced a Grundfos unit that was over 4 x as expsnsive. It's quiet, easy to install and works as it should.

Works as intended, exceeds expectations. Was easy for me to install. I bought it to circulate water in my chicken water system to help prevent frozen water when the temperature drops below freezing. I like the 2 different speed options. We recently had near zero temperatures and the pump kept working, no problems whatsoever. I would buy again if needed in other situations, great value for the money.

Wanted to use it as a booster pump for baseboard heat. Didn't have enough power to help push water from basement to heaters.

Tenía muy poca presión de agua en mi casa, el agua de la ducha salía fría. Instaló esta bomba de agua entre la salida de agua fría y el calentador de agua. Fantástico, ahora toda la casa tiene una excelente presión de agua y es genial poder tomar una ducha caliente. Altamente recomendado.

I purchased the RS15-6SB variant Feb 26, 2023 and it's almost Dec 2024 now. This pump has worked satisfactorily for ~10 months & is still going strong. In my application it recirculates domestic hot water between oil boiler, wood boiler and solar systems tanks / exchangers. It sees DHW ranging in temperature from ~100°F to ~150°F at 30-50 PSI. I'm planning to purchase another, possibly the S15-9SR which can be set to switch on/off automatically.As seen in my three photos, my pump came with adaptor fittings to sweat 1/2" copper pipe.For the price and considering the other pumps available for this purpose, you can't expect more. To say the least I'm satisfied with this Vevor product. If it was rebranded, it could probably be sold for twice as much.

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.

It's a good pump, until the impeller fails and starts squealing. I installed it on 7/24/24 and it died 10/6/24, and I guess I can't return it. The one before that lasted a week. These are normally great pumps; I don't know what's going on...

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 $.

After two months, both pumps started overheating and one even started to melt and was to the point of burning your finger if you touched it. The same one even vibrated so much it popped off a water pipe and cause flooding in the house. Spend more of better made quality products, learned the hard way by trying to save a few hundred.

I added radiators to extension room and hot water flow was weak and room cold. I connected this recirculating pump and it works fantastic. I had concerns with possible leaks since I used shark bites to connect most of the copper pipes, no leaks after a month. My oil furnace also heats my household water, so the recirculator turns on when that occurs. I was told to simply wire the recirculator to the circulator motor wire. I plan to just turn off in the spring once heat is no longer needed in the extension room. Having it run more actually keeps the hot water moving and saves on heating oil as it continues to keep the water flowing until it is completely cooled. The motor heats up to 135 degrees, which seemed concerning, but drops back down to the 80's after the furnace shuts off so it is just the hot water running through it that causes the heat not some motor issue. It has just 2 prongs; so easy to plug into a cheap timer if I only want to heat the extension room during my work hours. I will wait to see what my electric bill looks like before doing so. It did give off a light burning smell at first, that subsided in a few hours; likely the excess plumbing material from the solder job on the 2 parts that shark bites did not have a size for (I guess a European 3/4" fitting is slightly smaller). I will buy another to have for future use since the price is amazing. My Heating company came out for the annual furnace inspection/ cleaning and looked at my project, gave the thumbs up and said that he would have billed me $700 for the same thing.
