The ecodesign requirements imply that only circulators with an Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) of not more than 0.27 are allowed after 2013 and only circulators with an EEI of not more than 0.23 are allowed after 2015. In the guideline, companies can see how Europump interprets some of the terms and definitions in this legal text, namely the following points:
