Taco 0026e ECM High-Efficiency Circulators

Taco 0026e ECM High-Efficiency Circulators for Large Residential, Light Commercial, Hydronic Heating, Chilled Water, and Domestic Hot Water Systems

Taco 0026e ECM High-Efficiency Circulators are high-performance, variable-speed wet-rotor circulators designed for large residential and light commercial water circulation applications. Built with ECM permanent magnet motor technology, the 0026e helps reduce electrical power consumption while delivering strong performance for hydronic heating, chilled water cooling, and domestic hot water systems.

The 0026e is designed with five easy settings, making it simple to install, program, and match to system requirements. Its variable speed performance curves are equivalent to several common Taco circulators, including the 0010, 0011, 0012, 0012 3-Speed, and 0014. This makes the 0026e a practical high-efficiency replacement option for many single-speed and three-speed circulators in its class.

With performance up to 44 GPM and 26 feet of head, the 0026e is built for applications that require more flow and head than smaller circulators can provide. Cast iron models are suitable for closed-loop hydronic heating and cooling systems, while NSF-certified stainless steel models are available for domestic hot water recirculation applications.

The 0026e also includes contractor-friendly features such as a rotatable control cover, dual electrical knockouts, removable quick-connect terminal strip, nut-grabber flange feature, SureStart® automatic unblocking and air purging, and BIO Barrier® protection against system contaminants. These features help simplify installation, improve reliability, and reduce service callbacks.
