Default Blue line pumps heat transer?

Just curious if anyone out there has any experience with blue line pumps? Looking for opinions and if these pumps have much heat transfer. It will be used as a return pump.

thanks for the help!

I've been running 1 for a closed loop and it's a great pump. No heat transfer and very quite.
It has an external cooling fan that can make some noise if the pump is mounted on an angle so I would suggest screwing it down
