Grundfos Vs. Watts Recirculating Pump

 From the title of the post, you would've easily understood the comparison that we're gonna do in this post.

In layman's terms, both Grundfos & Watts are good in their own sense and come with their own sets of pros and cons.

So, tagging one as a better product than the other on absolute terms would be unfair.

However, depending upon your requirements and budget, one can be better than the other for you in a relative term and I totally agree with it.

Meanwhile, what I'll do is walk you through the various aspects of both the products so that you can make an informed purchase decision.

Does it make sense?

So, without any further ado, let's begin...
