What is an Energy Check?
According to Grundfos Key Account Manager, Brian Sørensen, it is an opportunity for our customers to see
how efficient their pump system really is. And whether or not it is profitable to replace any of the pumps.




According to Brian Sørensen: “An Energy Check is not rocket science. It is a simple theoretical calculation,
with a huge impact. And in most cases, our customers discover that they cannot afford to wait.”

offices.

A Grundfos Energy check is fast, simple, and free of charge. It’s waiting too
long that will cost you.
Why is energy so important?
Energy consumption accounts for 90% of the total
life cycle cost of most pumps. The initial purchase
price accounts for only 5-8% and maintenance
the remaining 2-5%.

“That’s why I ask our customers to pay much
more attention to the energy consumption of their
pump installations than the initial purchase price.
And presented with very short payback times,
they virtually always choose the energy-efficient
alternative”, says Brian.


Challenging old principles
According to Brian Sørensen, the technical staffs
in majority of industries are often unaware that
their old, ineffective pump systems are wasting
unnecessary energy, simply because these
pumps are hidden, working, and not causing any
problems.


They typically live by the principle:
Don’t fix it if it isn’t broken.
However, with recent years’ rapid technological development with the energy efficiency of pumps, this
principle no longer applies. Replacing inefficient pumps with new intelligent, energy efficient pumps can
reduce energy costs by up to 80%.

As a result, old and outdated principles can turn out to be very expensive, but also in complete contrast to
the green profile, that many companies signal.

As a result, we at Grundfos live by a different principle: Replace it - even if it isn’t broken. If it concerns
inefficient pumps, that is.
Our principle is not just a clever way of selling more pumps. Neither is it a product of the use-and-toss
society. It is common sense, because replacing an old inefficient pump with a new efficient or A-labeled
pump can eliminate unnecessary waste of energy.
Old pumps are of course not just thrown away. Virtually all parts of the old pumps are recycled.
