 o
age of Taco circulator - anybody know their model #s?

Posted by davidrt28 (My Page) on

I have a Taco circulator - 3 part design I believe, not the modern water-sealed ones - that appears to be marked "0   20   /72". Is there any chance that means it is from 1972? The house was built in the 50s, my assumption had always been they were the original equipment. I'd never wiped the grime off to read the labels.

It was kind of an academic question...I really need to replace them. Letting this get knocked down.

If it's pump data your looking for email or call Taco pump with the model and serial number. The serial number will reference the year is was made.

If your just looking to replace them, you'll need to find out the GPM and head rating of the pump, usually found on a data plate on the pump, otherwise the manufacturer can get that data for you.

Hope that helps,

Dan

FWIW, the current system for the cartridge circulators is that the manufacture date is stamped on the bottom of the electrical box as MM YY
