I have a water heater which uses Bells and Gossett's centrifugal water circulating pump with motor, located between hot water heater(burner) and hot water tank: I noticed this motor/pump is "HOT" when I touch it, is this NORMAL? or something bad or going to be bad? this motor/pump runs 24hours since it plugs power cable 24 hours( I have not sit in there and watch wether or not it actually runs 24 hours but I assume...) Plug in 24 hours and making it running 24 hours could cause this "HOT" issue? or Do I need to install auto-timer thing to shut-off power to motor at night and turn on in the morning every day?
which is better? or both doesn't matter?
The motor suppose to be HOT? if yes, how much hot is allowable?
if too hot is no good, then the only choice is to replace motor/pump? or try to find and fix the real cause for this?
Thanks
