Product Description
The Armstrong Astro 230 is a hydronic circulator that conserves energy and eliminates maintenance. Armstrong's Astro Circulator is intended for circulating water or ethylene glycol solutions in closed hydronic or solar heating systems. It is designed with no mechanical seals or couplers to replace, and no lubrication is required. Armstrong Astro 230 hot water re-circulation systems automatically circulate water through domestic hot water distribution pipes. This helps to ensure that everyone in the household has “instant” hot water at the tap when they need it.
***Rubber gaskets included with pump***
