Commercial air-conditioning solutions for buildings
Pumps are at the heart of central air-conditioning systems and accurately controlled chilled water circulation is the key to user comfort and the efficiency of the entire system. Our controllers and integrated frequency converters deliver system intelligence to maximise the efficiency of your commercial air-conditioning while minimising life-cycle costs.
Because pumps affect the performance of other components in a circulation system, it is crucial to focus on pump selection when designing or maintaining your commercial air-conditioning installation. With a Grundfos solution, you will get pumps and pump systems that deliver maximum efficiency with minimum energy consumption.
Distributed pumping
Distributed pumping is a paradigm shift in the optimisation of chilled water air-conditioning systems in commercial buildings, where centralised pumps and energy-consuming balancing and control valves are replaced with intelligent pumps placed on each floor of the building.
How to save up to 80% energy on your commercial circulation pump
Sligo University Hospital retrofitted its heating system with new boilers and intelligent commercial circulation pumps from Grundfos. With remote monitoring and control and built-in intelligence that adapts the pumps’ output to the actual heating system pressure, the hospital is saving up to 80% on energy on the new pumps.

The most efficient way to design a chilled water application is to use variable flow in the entire system. Our guide to airconditioning in commercial buildings investigates why.
Dubai buildings unlock up to 80% pump energy savings with simple pump swaps
A Dubai building owner is saving 50-80% electricity from the pumps in its commercial air-conditioning systems. With a retrofit, the customer got new, state-of-the-art pump equipment and is providing a better environment to residents. The project is in line with Dubai’s goal of saving 30% of its pump energy by retrofitting 30,000 buildings by 2030.
