Dunlite Begins Distribution of New Lister Fire Pump: Lest We Forget

Dunlite Power Equipment, leading nation-wide distributor of generators and fire pumps, recently added the popular Lister Fire Pump to their catalogue. The product is made to fire protection specifications, and Dunlite expects solid take-up for the product.

Melbourne, Australia, January 09, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Dunlite Power Equipment, leading national retailer of generators and fire pumps, recently added the new Lister Fire Pump MLD15HP to their stock range. The fire pump provides an ideal option for rural householders and business owners whose fire plan involves staying and defending their property.

The MLD15HP fire pump’s specifications meet the baseline requirements for stationary pumps for fire protection, including:

· Suction size: 1.5”
· Discharge size: 1” (x2) or 1.5” (x1)
· Max head: 74.5m
· Max flow: 390L/min
· Fuel tank: 3.5L
· Dimensions: 76 x 52 x 57cm
· Weight: 58kg (recoil start) or 64kg (electric start)

The Lister MLD15HP can be lifted by a fit single person in an emergency situation, and easily moved by two people. A choice of single or twin delivery hoses is available, depending on an individual’s fire plan and anticipated help available.

The product also has several redesigned features, including:

Rollover frame
Centre lift point to ease single-person transportation
Choice of electric start to eliminate the possibility of recoil start frustrations

The Lister could be the difference between life and death for some householders. You can’t have a stay-and-defend fire plan without the fire pump to back it up. A garden hose isn’t good enough. The Lister MLD15HP allows for single person operation by those with a baseline strength and fitness, and has the best mix of pricing, effectiveness and ease-of-use in its class. It could easily be the difference between a successful and unsuccessful bushfire defence.

Despite the slow start to the bushfire season across much of Australia, Dunlite is encouraging rural and remote property owners to prepare early. Rural Fire Service representative Peter Alley said that “It’ll probably start to dry off as we progress through summer … I expect the most dangerous period to be at the end of February.”

In the meantime, the Lister fire pump is being used by Dunlite customers for non-emergency applications including:

Bilge pumping
General water pump applications
Safety pump for burn-offs – permits are still being issued for burning off in many rural areas according to the Rural Fire Service.
