Abstract: A circulator pump-motor unit which has an impeller assembly that can selectively tilt between two positions is disclosed. Each of the two positions corresponds to aligning a suction port with one of two inlet ports. The unit can be used to, for example, change the path of hot water conveyed between these ports so that either a hot water system or a hydronic system gets heat.

Abstract: In installations with water circuits such as domestic hot water or hydronic heating circuits a circulator pump is connected with a temperature sensor which energizes the pump as soon as the temperature of the water in the system falls below a predetermined temperature close to freezing.

Abstract: A three-way-valve is actuated by fluid which moves membranes.

Abstract: Installation for the sterilization of a body of water wherein the water is conveyed through a heat exchanger to a heat source, where it is heated up to the sterilization temperature. This stream of hot water transfers its heat to the incoming stream of water, leaving the heat exchanger at a temperature that is only slightly higher than that of the incoming water.

Abstract: In a hot and cold water distribution system wherein the hot water is delivered from a water heater to a distant hot water tap adjacent a cold water tap, a hot water recirculation pump assembly purges the hot water line of any cooled-down water in order to assure instant hot water delivery when the hot water tap is opened. The volume of water drawn from the hot water line is flushed back through the hot water line by admission of an equal amount of water that was stored within a tank. That volume of water is pumped back into the tank, and automatically replaced by hot water drawn from the water heater.

Abstract: A hot water distribution system incorporating a pump positioned close to, and between each set of hot and cold water taps to which periodically move the cooled-down water content of the hot water distribution line through the cold water distribution line back to the hot water tank until the total content of the hot water line has a predetermined temperature. The pump is provided with a valve responsive to pump-generated pressure to prevent backflow when the pump is not in use and the pressure in the cold water distribution line is lower than the pressure in the hot water distribution line, such as when water is drawn through a cold water tap.

Abstract: A circulation and heating device for a hot tub, consisting of a motor-pump-unit and a pipe forming a stand, whereby said pipe ends in a dry portion of the pump housing, and contains a rod shaped resistance heating element with the leads on one end which receive their power supply from inside said dry portion, and that the water conveyed through the pipe leaves through a lateral opening of the pipe which communicates with the suction side of the pump.
