What Are Some Factors That Affect the Cost of a Water Recirculation Pump Install?
When you schedule an installation with Bonney, you get a unique quote based on your existing plumbing setup and needs. Our plumbers consider several aspects before generating your quote, such as:
- Type of system: Retrofitted (integrated loop system) recirculation pumps usually cost less to install because they simply place a pump into an existing plumbing system. Dedicated loop systems usually go into new build homes, creating a designated line specifically for cooled water to return to the water heater. You pay more for the designated line, but you also get better performance and efficiency.
- Labor costs: Your labor costs coincide with plumbing complexity. More complex plumbing systems require more effort to install your pump. This typically translates to higher labor costs.
- Plumbing accessibility: How accessible your plumbing system is affects overall labor costs. If it’s difficult to reach the installation site, costs may increase.

Water Recirculation Pump FAQs
Should a recirculating pump run all the time?
No, your recirculating pump shouldn’t run all the time. Doing so accelerates wear and tear on the pump, wastes energy, and can erode your pipes over time since water will flow constantly.
It’s more efficient to run your pump on a timer or an aquastat, which turns on the pump when water temperatures drop to a certain level. Focus on running your pump during peak usage times and schedule it to remain off when you won’t need hot water, such as overnight or during the workday.
What maintenance is needed for a recirculating pump?
Recirculating water pumps require some basic maintenance to keep them fully operational, including:
- Annual leak inspection
- Annual sensor valve checks (if your pump has a dedicated one)
- Routine inlet screen or filter cleaning
- Lubrication, if recommended by the manufacturer
How does a pump save water?
Water recirculation pumps save water by keeping hot water available at all times in your pipes. It’s common for people waiting for hot water to leave the tap running until the flow warms up. While it seems like running the tap for a few seconds wouldn’t waste much, it results in thousands of gallons of water wasted annually in an average home.
Will a water recirculation pump affect my water pressure?
No, if it’s properly installed, a water recirculation pump shouldn’t affect your home’s water pressure. They’re designed to recirculate water at a consistent pressure. If your water pressure suffers and you have a circulation pump, it may be the wrong size, installed improperly, or failing.
Do water recirculation pumps work with tankless water heaters?
Yes, water recirculation pumps work with tankless water heaters, but they require a professional installation to confirm compatibility. They work by pushing cooled water back to the tankless water heater through the cold-water line so it can be reheated.
