What a Diesel Fire Pump Package Includes for a Philippine Building
A diesel fire pump package for a building is more than the pump itself. JOHOB Hardware Trading quotes the full assembly: the diesel driven main fire pump matched to the flow and head on your approved fire protection plans, a jockey pump to hold system pressure, the diesel controller and jockey controller, the pump base and coupling, the suction and discharge fittings, and the fire reserve tank that feeds the whole system. We also supply the sprinkler kit and the piping accessories that sit downstream, including stainless steel flexible hose for the pump connections and ball and gate valves for isolation, so one supplier is accountable for the water side of the package. On the electrical side we supply the panels the system needs, including star delta, VFD, and MCC panels for the jockey pump and for any electric standby unit. Quoting the package as one scope removes the gap that usually opens between the pump vendor, the tank vendor, and the panel vendor, which is where most fire protection handovers slip. Pricing is quote based and released against your drawings rather than published as a list price, because flow, head, driver rating, reserve volume, and site conditions all move the number. Send the fire protection plan set and we respond within 1 business day.
Six Things We Need From You to Quote a Diesel Fire Pump
To quote a diesel fire pump accurately we need six inputs. First, the required flow in GPM or LPS and the total head in meters or PSI, taken from the hydraulic calculation on your approved plans. Second, the standard your engineer of record specified for the pump set (commonly NFPA 20) and whether a third party listing is a permit condition on your project. Third, the fire reserve volume in cubic meters and the duration the design calls for, since that sets the tank we quote alongside the pump. Fourth, the suction condition, meaning whether the pump takes suction under positive head from a ground tank or under lift, because that changes the pump selection outright. Fifth, the site: full delivery address, whether the building sits inside a PEZA, SBMA, or Clark zone, and the access route for offloading, since provincial and island sites carry different freight. Sixth, your target delivery date, so we can tell you whether the set falls in the 21 to 35 day ex stock band or the 45 to 90 day made to order band. If you have architectural plans but no hydraulic calculation yet, send what you have. We will list every assumption in writing on the quotation so your consultant can confirm or correct it before you commit.
Certification and Test Documentation on the Equipment We Supply
We do not publish listing claims we cannot document. Tell us at RFQ stage which listing or approval your permit requires and we quote against that requirement, rather than substituting a lesser document after award. On the equipment we supply, the documentation available covers ISO 9001 quality management system certification for the manufacturing partner, TUV SUD test reports where the equipment has been tested, CE marking on electrical assemblies, and ASME certification where a pressure vessel forms part of the scope. For fire reserve tanks built from modular panels, WRAS certified panel material is available where potable contact is a requirement. Every quotation states exactly which certificates ship with the equipment quoted, so your consultant, your project manager, and the reviewing official are all working from the same list you approved. Equipment is sourced from vetted overseas manufacturers and ISO 9001 certified partner factories, and it lands with local warranty and after sales support in the Philippines, which is the practical difference between a direct order and a supplied package. If a document your consultant needs is not on the list we give you, we will say so before you issue the purchase order instead of after delivery. That single habit is what keeps fire protection turnovers from stalling at inspection.
Fire Reserve Tank, Sprinkler Kit, and Controllers Supplied as One Scope
The pump is only as good as the water behind it. JOHOB supplies the fire reserve tank in the same scope as the diesel fire pump, which means the tank volume, the outlet position, the suction connection size, and the pump inlet are all checked against one another before anything is fabricated. Modular tank options include FRP and GRP panel tanks, hot dip galvanised, and stainless steel, supplied and installed under our TankSmith sister brand for turnkey modular tank work. Downstream we supply the sprinkler system pump kit, hydrant pump packages, and the accessories that connect them, including stainless steel flexible hose and ball and gate valves. Where the design calls for an electric standby pump alongside the diesel unit, we quote the duplex control panel and the VFD or star delta starter with it. Buying the tank, the pump, the controller, and the sprinkler kit from four separate vendors is where dimensional mismatches and finger pointing start, and it is also where the schedule goes. One purchase order, one delivery plan, one warranty contact. If a tank is already standing on site, we will size the pump to it and say plainly whether the existing reserve volume supports the duration your plans call for, before you spend anything. See the full fire protection equipment scope for the complete component breakdown, and our pumping and pressure systems range for the domestic booster side.
Diesel Versus Electric Fire Pump for Philippine Buildings
Buyers ask which driver to specify. A diesel driven fire pump runs independently of the building supply, which is why it is specified where the fire protection design cannot rely on utility power or on a generator starting in time. An electric fire pump is simpler to install and cheaper to maintain, but it inherits every weakness of the power source behind it. In practice, mid rise and high rise commercial buildings, hotels, hospitals, and industrial plants in the Philippines often end up with a diesel main pump and an electric jockey pump, sometimes with an electric standby unit as well. The decision is not ours to make for you. It is set by your fire protection consultant and by what the permit reviewer will accept. What we can do is quote both configurations side by side against the same flow and head, so the cost difference is visible before you commit, including the diesel fuel tank, the battery set, the controller, and the ventilation and exhaust provisions a diesel unit needs in the pump room. Those provisions are frequently left out of comparison quotes and then reappear as a variation order later. Our full comparison of the two drivers is in the diesel versus electric fire pump guide, written for Philippine buildings and Philippine permit conditions.
Lead Times, VAT Treatment, and Nationwide Delivery
Standard lead times are 21 to 35 days for ex stock items and 45 to 90 days for made to order equipment. A diesel fire pump package usually falls in the made to order band once the pump curve, driver rating, controller, and tank volume are fixed to your drawings, so build the 45 to 90 day window into your programme rather than assuming a shelf item. We respond to RFQs within 1 business day and confirm the firm lead time on the quotation itself, not verbally over the phone. On tax, 12 percent VAT applies to VAT registered buyers. PEZA and SBMA locators and registered exporters are billed at zero VAT, subject to submitting the usual supporting documents at order stage. Delivery is nationwide: NCR, the rest of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, including PEZA zones, SBMA, and Clark. Provincial and island deliveries are quoted with freight shown as a separate line so you can see the cost rather than having it buried inside the equipment price. Pricing stays quote based and we do not publish price lists, because a fire pump priced without the flow, head, and reserve volume in front of it is a guess. Send the plans, get a number you can put in a budget and a lead time you can put in a schedule.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a diesel fire pump cost in the Philippines?
Pricing is quote based and we do not publish price lists for diesel fire pump packages. The number moves with the required flow and head, the driver rating, whether a third party listing is a permit condition, the fire reserve tank volume, the controller specification, and the delivery site. Send the fire protection plan set and hydraulic calculation and we return a line itemised quotation, with freight shown as a separate line, within 1 business day. VAT registered buyers are billed 12 percent VAT. PEZA and SBMA locators and registered exporters are billed at zero VAT.
What is the lead time for a diesel fire pump package in the Philippines?
Standard lead times are 21 to 35 days for ex stock items and 45 to 90 days for made to order equipment. A diesel fire pump package normally falls in the made to order band, because the pump, driver, controller, and fire reserve tank are matched to the flow, head, and reserve volume shown on your approved plans. The firm lead time is stated on the quotation, not given verbally. If your programme is tighter than that window, say so at RFQ stage so we can quote what is genuinely available against your schedule.
Are your diesel fire pumps UL Listed and FM Approved?
Tell us at RFQ stage which listing or approval your permit requires, and we quote against that requirement instead of substituting a different document after award. On the equipment we supply, the documentation available covers ISO 9001 quality management system certification for the manufacturing partner, TUV SUD test reports where applicable, CE marking on electrical assemblies, and ASME certification where a pressure vessel forms part of the scope. Every quotation lists exactly which certificates ship with the equipment quoted. If a document your consultant needs is not on that list, we will say so before you issue the purchase order.
Do you deliver to PEZA, SBMA, and Clark locators, and is it zero rated?
Yes. Coverage is nationwide: NCR, the rest of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, including PEZA zones, SBMA, and Clark. PEZA and SBMA locators and registered exporters are billed at zero VAT, subject to the usual supporting documents at order stage. VAT registered buyers outside those zones are billed 12 percent VAT. Freight to provincial and island sites is quoted as a separate line so you can see the cost rather than having it absorbed into the equipment price. Give us the full delivery address and the offloading access at RFQ stage.
Can you supply the fire reserve tank and sprinkler kit together with the pump?
Yes. We supply the fire reserve tank, the diesel main pump, the jockey pump, the controllers, and the sprinkler system pump kit as one scope on one purchase order. Modular tank options include FRP and GRP panel, hot dip galvanised, and stainless steel, with turnkey modular tank installation handled under our TankSmith sister brand. Supplying tank and pump together means the reserve volume, outlet position, and suction connection are checked against the pump selection before fabrication starts. If a tank is already on site, we will size the pump to it and state whether the existing reserve volume meets the duration your plans require.
What information do you need to quote a diesel fire pump for our building?
Six items: the required flow and total head from the hydraulic calculation, the standard your engineer of record specified plus any listing your permit requires, the fire reserve volume and duration, the suction condition (positive head from a ground tank, or suction lift), the full delivery address including whether the site sits in a PEZA, SBMA, or Clark zone, and your target delivery date. If the hydraulic calculation is not ready, send the plans you have. We will state our assumptions in writing on the quotation so your consultant can confirm them before you commit.
