Boost Pressure When It Matters
For medium and high-rise buildings, the local water supply often isn't enough on its own to deliver the pressure needed for effective fire protection — that's where a fire pumpset comes in. Flaming North Fire Protection designs, installs and maintains fire pumpsets that boost water pressure across hydrant and sprinkler systems, ensuring your fire protection systems perform as intended, even when mains supply falls short.
We service businesses across North Queensland, including Townsville, Cairns and the Western Region, helping larger and more complex buildings maintain reliable, compliant fire protection systems.
Call our Cairns branch on (07) 4725 6672 or our Townsville branch on (07) 4054 6905 to discuss fire pumpset solutions for your building.
Frequently Asked Questions
When does a building need a fire pumpset?
A fire pumpset is generally required for medium and high-rise buildings, or any site where the local water authority cannot supply sufficient pressure for fire protection systems. Buildings that are tank fed also typically require a pumpset to maintain adequate pressure.
How often do fire pumpsets need to be tested?
Fire pumpsets require regular inspection, testing and maintenance in accordance with AS 1851, including regular function tests and performance checks. Regular servicing ensures the pumpset will operate correctly and deliver adequate pressure in the event of a fire emergency.
Why would a building need both a hydrant and sprinkler pump?
Some buildings require boosted pressure across both their hydrant and sprinkler systems to meet fire protection requirements. Depending on the building's design, this can be achieved using separate pumps for each system, or a combined pump system drawing from a shared source.

Pumpsets Tailored to Your Building
Flaming North Fire Protection supplies and maintains a range of fire pumpsets to suit different building requirements. Hydrant pumps are high-pressure water pumps designed to boost a building's firefighting capacity when mains pressure is insufficient, or when the system is tank fed. Sprinkler pumps provide critical pressure boosting for fire sprinkler systems, available in diesel or electric configurations, ensuring set pressure is maintained throughout the sprinkler pipeline. For multi-storey buildings drawing from a single water main, combined hydrant and sprinkler pumps offer an efficient solution, integrating both systems into one pump skid drawing from the same water source.
Whatever your building's water supply and fire protection needs, Flaming North Fire Protection can design and install the right pumpset solution to keep your systems performing at full capacity.
