The best portable fire pump is a highly reliable, durable, and easy to use unit that is perfect for temporary fire equipment pumping applications. Using high quality parts, each portable fire fighting pump is designed and tested over several years by professional construction designers to achieve the final best practice design.
Developed to meet the needs of wildland firefighters, these portable fire pumps provide water and pressure at the fire site or in remote locations. These fire pumps can divert water from nearby streams, lakes, ponds or shallow wells to buy time until firefighters arrive at a home or structure.
A twin impeller fire fighting pump creates more pressure than a single-impeller pump, which is great for long distance hose lays or pumping to higher elevation areas to overcome the friction loss (foot of head). The amount of water the pump can transfer is determined by its suction height and maximum head.
These mobile fire fighting pumps are also a great choice for agricultural applications, as they can be used to spray crop fields or weeds with water, rather than chemical products. These portable pumps can help prevent or control pests by spraying a fine mist into the foliage and killing the weeds at their root. These water pumps can also be used to transfer water around farm properties or between tanks. Choosing a petrol or diesel water transfer pump is ideal, as these models will be easier to move around on the property.
