to "Smart" operation. Simply connect the SmartPlug to any 110V power outlet then plug the
circulator power cord into the SmartPlug. Using a sensor that mounts to the hot water supply
pipe, the SmartPlug will record the daily hot water usage pattern in a home and adjust the
circulator run time automatically. Hot water will always be available when needed.

Application:
The Taco SmartPlug is designed to upgrade any
hot water recirculation system. SmartPlug replaces
inefficient timers and aquastats typically used in
recirculation systems. It adds intelligence to your
system by learning when hot water is used in the
home. The pipe-mounted temperature sensor
records daily hot water usage patterns during the
course of a week. Recorded data is used to auto-
matically run the circulator at the same times the
following week. So hot water is always available
when it's needed. If usage pattern changes, the
SmartPlug adjusts automatically.
— No programming required.
Benefits:
• Easy to install: Upgrades any recirculation
pump to "Smart" operation.
• Water conservation: The average residence
can save up to 12,000 gallons* of water per year
by eliminating the wait for hot water to arrive
at fixtures and taps.
• Comfort and convenience: Hot water
is available in seconds. No timers or
programming required.
• Efficiency: “Smart” setting maximizes hot
water comfort and energy savings.
• Reliability: The SmartPlug, when combined
with a Taco domestic hot water circulator,
provides whisper quiet operation and industry
leading electronics for proven performance
and dependability.
Application & Benets
SmartPlug Control Options / Features:
“Smart” Mode: When set to "Smart" mode,
the SmartPlug monitors and records the home's
hot water usage pattern over a 7 day period.
The SmartPlug will use the preceding week's usage
pattern to automatically cycle the circulator ON,
so hot water is always available when it's needed.
The recording and repeating process is continuous,
week after week.
“Pulse” Mode: When set to "Pulse" mode, the
SmartPlug will continuously cycle the circulator
ON for 5 minutes, then OFF for 10 minutes to
maintain hot water at all fixtures.
Vacation Mode: After 36 hours of no hot water
usage, the SmartPlug will automatically turn the
circulator OFF and remain off until hot water
usage is detected.
Exercise Function: While in vacation mode
the SmartPlug will cycle the circulator for
10 seconds every 7 days to prevent any
corrosion or scale build up.
