Will my customers see any change in their electric bill by running a 007 circulator all the time? I thought only a slight increase if any. any thoughts...mark

Like you said,

only a slight increase.

Turn on a 100 watt light bulb and leave it on; same thing. Leave your porch light on, leave your hot water circulating pump on.............

Taco 007 energy consumption

Running a Taco 007 (0.7 amp, 115v) 24 hours/day uses roughly 58kwh/month. Here in Massachusetts, where we pay $0.15/kwh, the cost would be $8.70/month for 24 hr/day operation. If, for sake of arguement, the circulator runs 12 hrs/day anyway, then going to continuous circulation would add only (12/24)*$8.70 , or $4.35/month to the electric bill.
