Set to launch in September 2013, on-line pump supplier PumpProducts.com has created an inventory of pumps, motors and generators characterized by heavy-duty design, high performance and versatility. The new e-commerce site's offerings reflect the changing demands of the residential and light commercial pump markets. In addition to the leading consumer pumps offered by big-box stores, including models by Armstrong, Taco, Berkeley and Grundfos, Pump Products will offer customers a variety of gas-powered pumps traditionally used in commercial and industrial applications. Prior to 2011, engine driven pumps fueled by gas or diesel were largely limited to agricultural and construction applications.
