Steven Brown & Associates is the Mid-Atlantic's best source for fire pump sales and service. Armed with over 50 years combined experience in the industry, and a strong lineup of quality products, you won't find a better resource for meeting your pump and sprinkler accessory needs. Whether you are a consulting engineer, contractor, or owner of a fire protection system, we can be an invaluable resource for your company.

Our industry requires a strong commitment to quality, and exhaustive attention to detail. You need a supplier that values customer relationships, represents quality products, and knows the industry inside and out. At Steven Brown & Associates, we understand that helping our customers make the right decisions about their fire pump needs is crucial. That's why we pride ourselves on knowing more about fire pumps-from the design phase to field service and maintenance-than just about anyone else around.

We are not your every day fire pump distributor. Here's what sets us apart:

1. We're focused specifically on the sprinkler industry.

  • We realize the amount of time and attention to detail this industry demands, so we have sought to handle products that benefit our primary customers-sprinkler contractors and fire protection engineers.
  • We take great care in selecting the products with which to associate our name. We know from experience that the products we handle are the best in the industry.
  • New code changes pertaining to fire pumps won't take us by surprise. It is our business to know NFPA 20, BOCA, NFPA 14, NFPA 25, just to name a few.

2. We employ full-time in-house technicians.

  • If you work with our competitors, getting qualified people on-site can be a big problem; and when they are on-site, there is no one available to answer questions at their office.
  • At Steven Brown & Associates, we employ three (3!) technicians-two full-time-available to service the fire pump industry.
  • This means YOU get a return phone call or quote promptly, regardless of what is happening in the field.

3. We have an extensive inventory.

  • We stock jockey pumps-especially the most common sizes.
  • We stock parts for all Aurora fire pumps: packing, swing bolt assemblies, gaskets, bearings, etc.
  • Find all the common accessory items: air release valves, casing release valves, brass orificed unions, pressure gauges (both dry and liquid filled). You don't have to stock these items, because we do! Let us hold them for you until you need them.
  • And we don't stop there! We also stock hose valves and Wilmington thread items! And there's no sales tax when you send a truck!

4. Steven Brown & Associates has the experience.

We have had success in select special fire pump applications, such as single phase fire pumps, 2-phase conversions, PRV installations in lieu of main relief valve, suction control valve applications, packaged fire pump houses and more!

5. We value the consulting engineer.

  • We are happy to sit down with any engineer to discuss current or future fire pump installations. This isn't an interruption for us, but an opportunity to learn and network! We look forward to it!
  • Call us today for any catalog literature, or to schedule a visit.

6. We offer a convenient location.

We are centrally located in our territory-just seconds from I-95. Minutes from downtown Wilmington, and less than ½ hour away from downtown Philadelphia.

7.We offer control panel troubleshooting.

We have a strong relationship with all control panel manufacturers to guarantee fast turn-around and response. Emergencies happen-you need a reliable team to respond!

8. Get fast quotations. Fast shop-drawings. Fast lead-times.

We can review specifications, fax or e-mail quotations, and send out shop drawings for engineering approval faster than anybody!

In 2001, we were the highest fire pump sales volume distributor for Aurora in the nation, and we're on target to earn that distinction again in 2002. We hold memberships in the NFPA, the ASPE, the SFPE and the New Castle County (DE) Chamber of Commerce. Steven Brown has been personally in the industry for 11 years, and started this firm in January 2000.
