I am looking for a powerful pump for radiant floor heating, can someone tell me what Taco pumps are made for radiant floor heating other than the 00R?

There are at least a dozen of Taco residential/light commercial circs available.
You don't need an "R" circ, thats a marketing ploy its just an 006 or 007, I forget with a IFC and later ones an LED. I heard they weren't selling too well as stocking distributors don't care to carry near duplicate inventory.
As far as larger circs, calculate the total head and combined flow and select the proper one, some with IFC's and others you will need to add externally if applicable.
