Product Overview
The Grundfos UP 15-29 SU model 59896775 is a single-speed stainless steel wet-rotor circulator for compatible water-circulation systems that require corrosion-resistant pump construction. It is commonly selected for properly designed domestic hot-water recirculation loops and other water applications where the pump materials, temperature range, pressure rating, and hydraulic performance match the system. The compact in-line design uses stainless steel union connections for installation and future service.
The confirmed pump data lists a rated flow of 10.3 GPM, maximum flow of 20.7 GPM, rated head of 5.322 ft, and maximum head of 9.843 ft. These values occur at different points on the performance curve. Correct selection requires the system's required flow at calculated head loss, including pipe length, diameter, fittings, valves, elevation effects, and heat-source requirements.
This model operates on 115V single-phase power and has a confirmed maximum input of 87W. Union fittings are selected separately unless specifically included elsewhere in the order. This product identifies Grundfos 59896127 as a replacement reference; confirm connection style, hydraulic duty, and electrical requirements before substitution.

FAQ:
What is the confirmed maximum flow?
The confirmed maximum flow is 20.7 GPM at the applicable point on the pump curve.
What is the maximum liquid temperature?
The confirmed liquid-temperature range extends to 203°F.
Are the union fittings included?
The pump uses 1-1/4 in. NPSM stainless steel union connections; confirm whether the required mating union components are included or must be ordered separately.
What older product number is referenced?
Grundfos 59896127 is listed as a replacement reference; verify the complete application before substitution.
