The Helitak Hover Pump Design
Helitak Fire Fighting Hover Pumps comes in four models. The HP2000, the HP6000, the HP6000 Shallow Fill and the HP10000
Our hover pumps are lightweight, yet robust, and have been proven in the field over many fire seasons. The clever design has delivered an all in one solution that is also easy to maintain.
The water intake mechanism of the Helitak hover pump keeps the delivery up off the bottom of the lake, dam or ring tank, reducing the risk of ingestion of rocks and debris, which helps reduce damage to fire tank and pump, and minimises maintenance.
No assembly required, and they have a plug and play, compact design to allow for easy transportation.
