Title: Unplug taco pump in off season?
Post by: Hunt4heat on March 12, 2024, 03:46:16 AM

Hi, I know some people run their boiler year round. I do not and I'm wondering if what I've been doing is correct in the past? Usually once temperatures stay above freezing I unplug my taco pump (is it good for it to have a rest or possibly make it wear out quicker than just running year-round?)

I also unplug mine for the summer.

I unplug mine… when I remember to.  I’ve been burning 16 years and I’ll bet half of them have been plugged in year round.

Put mine on a timer to run one hour a day
