The
days of receiving a cold-water jolt from someone flushing a
nearby toilet may soon be ending.
The intelligent and low-noise Grundfos SCALA2 domestic booster
pump offers homeowners the holy grail of constant water
pressure, regardless of municipal inlet pressure and multiple
open taps. |
The SCALA2 from Grundfos has a super-silent
motor that is water-instead-of-fan-cooled, which results in
low-noise operation. |
Fully
integrated, the new self-priming SCALA2 is designed to boost
water pressure from city mains, shallow wells and storage
tanks serving residential buildings with up to three floors
and eight taps. An intelligent pump control sensor compares
measured and desired water pressures, adjusting pump speed
accordingly and ensuring a perfect water pressure through
the system. The plug-and-pump solution has a user-friendly
control panel to enable manual pressure adjustments.
While
water boosting pumps can often be large and noisy, the
compact, all-in-one SCALA2 weighs only 22 Ibs. and has a
super-silent motor that is water-instead-of-fan-cooled,
which results in a sound level of 47 dB(A), which is roughly
as loud as a modern dishwasher.
“With the new SCALA2 water booster pump, homeowners will
have perfect, steady water pressure–even if the shower is
on, the kitchen faucet is running and the car is being
washed outside. It will only take a plumber a few minutes to
install, but it’ll boost the comfort in the home for years
and years,” according to Kirk Vigil, Director of National
Accounts for DBS.
The SCALA2 will be available in May 2016.
