Advanced Engineering to sell Little Giant

Little-GiantUK: Hampshire-based Advanced Engineering has been appointed as a UK distributor of Little Giant condensate pumps.

Pump House, which has represented Little Giant in the UK for the last 25 years, remains as a distributor.

In January, Pump House was acquired by US manufacturer DiversiTech, a leading manufacturer of ancillary products for the HVACR industry and a major competitor of Little Giant in condensate pumps.

Advanced Engineering has appointed Richard Davies from Hawco to head the team looking after the new range. With nearly 30 years industry experience to call upon, Richard has previously worked for wholesalers HRP and Climate Center and has direct condensate pump experience from employment at both Pump House and Aspen Pumps.

Michael Blum, Little Giant’s director of sales at parent company Franklin Electric, said “Franklin Electric is excited to have what we feel is the strongest representation of Little Giant pumps in the UK and Europe. As a global leader in HVAC condensate removal, we expect continued mutual growth with our distribution partners for the markets they serve.”

Meanwhile, Pump House md Dave Bass confirmed that Pump House was still committed to selling and supporting the Little Giant produce range.

“We are still far and away the main and number one distributor for Little Giant with extensive stocks held in Nottingham,” he said. “We are 100% committed to stocking and selling Little Giant.”
