Anyone here have a Kill A Watt (or similar) Meter?
« on: October 26, 2011, 12:01:05 AM »

I am interested in getting a list of actual pump watt usage. I will be trying several different pumps when I get around to it. If you have a watt meter please post what your pump is using.

Right now my meter is on a B&G PL36. The label says 2.1 amps. It is running at 181 watts. I have about 120' of Kitek (pex-al-pex) from the boiler to the pump and then is splits off to 3 heat exchangers in parallel. If I close off the valves the watt usage drops and bottoms out at about 130 watts with the pump dead headed.

You should ping MTJAG. He has Grundfos Alpha pumps that display watt usage.
