Australia’s best known building, the Opera House, is protected by a Prime Pumps fire pump and control system.

“It’s a national symbol of great importance to all Australians,” says Prime Pumps Managing Director Bill Lea. “It deserves and needs the very best protection that our community can offer.”

The Opera House has complicated, high-power electrical looms used to drive its internal and external performance areas. The back stop for its entire fire management strategy is a custom designed and installed Prime Pumps fire pump system.

“While we hope the system is never used, it is maintained and ready to go at a moments notice.” Bill says.

The rest of Bennelong Point also relies on Prime Pumps. Sydney’s famous Circular Quay is bounded by the landmark Bennelong Apartments, home to many of Australia’s leading business and entertainment identities. The high security underground car parks extend way below sea level.

Prime Pumps designed, installed and now maintain the systems that keep the car park dry to this day. It is an around-the-clock, never ending battle with the forces of nature. These systems include redundancy plus a strict preventative maintenance program.

“It is not just items, but also public safety and basic services that are at stake,” said Bill. “With any modern building, a flooded car park can disable almost all basic services including fire protection and electrical systems.”

Prime Pumps takes its responsibilities to our Country’s icons seriously. Its job is to supply Constant Pressure – Zero Stress. Its engineers, its maintenance team and its processes ensure that Prime Pumps always delivers.
