The integrated timer allows you to set specific periods during the day when the pump will activate. This ensures hot water is available during peak demand times, such as mornings and evenings, without continuous operation.
- Refer to the timer's specific instructions for setting the desired on/off cycles.
- Typically, you will push in segments on the timer dial corresponding to the hours you want the pump to operate.
- Ensure the current time is correctly set on the timer for accurate scheduling.

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your recirculating pump.
6.1 Flushing for Maintenance
The system is designed for easy flushing when maintenance or replacement is necessary. Consult a qualified plumber for detailed flushing procedures, which typically involve isolating the pump, draining the lines, and flushing with appropriate solutions if scale buildup is a concern.
