Secure a Competitive Price with a Supply Only Pump

While we can offer excellent service when it comes to installation, commissioning and ongoing maintenance, we also recognise that you might have in-house engineers who are excellent at this too. In such cases, you might simply need expert advice on the pros and cons of different pump manufacturers to help you select the ideal pump for your team to install.

The benefits you will experience when talking to us about supply only are:

  • Lower cost than you could secure yourself –
    we deal with all the major quality manufacturers of pumps, every day. As a result, we can secure competitive rates as we buy from them all the time.
  • Technical understanding of a wide range of pumps – 
    because we buy many pumps from many manufacturers and install, commission and maintain them, we know the pros and cons and which pump best suits which application. We can help you with this knowledge that you will not have unless you buy different pumps and buy them regularly.
  • Quicker delivery –  
    because we have supplier contracts in place with most quality manufacturers, we are confident that we can buy and deliver the pump quicker than you can.
  • Ongoing sounding board –  
    we not only supply the pump but we are also here if you want to talk to a like-minded technician or engineer. Two heads are better than one. We can provide your trusted installers with detailed technical specifications and support to ensure the installation meets your exact standards.
  • Phased Project Management –  
    we can offer flexible purchasing options, including potential financial assistance, allowing you to manage project timelines and budgets effectively.

However, it is crucial to also consider the significant responsibilities and potential downsides of supply only:

  • Installation responsibility –
    you are solely responsible for finding a qualified and competent installer. Incorrect installation can damage the equipment, lead to poor performance and create safety hazards.
  • Commissioning – 
    certain pumps, for example, booster sets often require careful commissioning (setting pressures, flow rates, control parameters) to operate correctly and efficiently. You will need to ensure your chosen installer is capable.
  • Warranty implications –  
    manufacturers’ warranties are conditional on correct installation and commissioning, often by an approved or certified technician. A “supply only” purchase might make warranty claims more complex.
  • Technical expertise –  
    you need the expertise to ensure the pump is correctly sized and specified for the application before purchase, and then correctly installed.
  • Overall cost   
    while the upfront equipment cost might be lower, the total cost (equipment + installation + commissioning) could end up being similar or even higher than our supply and installation costs, especially if unforeseen installation issues arise.
  • Accountability  
    if problems occur, it can be harder to determine accountability. The equipment supplier might blame the installer and the installer might blame the equipment. With a Dura Pump turnkey solution, we are responsible.
  • Time and effort  
    you will need to invest time and effort in managing the installation process, coordinating contractors and ensuring everything is done correctly. We can do all this for you.

Our Happy Customer

We recently sourced and supplied a hose reel booster set for a leading UK waste management operation. This progressive resource recycling plant collects, treats and disposes of unused resources while generating electricity. At their facility, the old booster set failed unexpectedly. This provides critical fire cover throughout the facility. This supply-only customer had a contractor who could install their pumps and only needed to purchase the most suitable booster set for their requirements (with some minimal follow-up technical assistance).

If you are looking to source an industrial scale supply-only pump, it would be wise to consult with us before making this crucial decision. Contact us today to discuss further.
