Hose Reels

Fire hose reels are located to provide a reasonably accessible and controlled supply of water to combat a potential fire risk and require connection to a pressurised source of water.

The length of a fully extended fire hose is typically 30 meters with a hose diameter of 19mm (outside diameter). These appliances are designed to deliver, as a minimum, 0.33L of water per second. A control nozzle attached to the end of the hose enables the operator to control the direction and flow of water to the fire. All fire hose reels come with a unique ball valve shut-off device, a plastic or solid brass hose reel nozzle and a suitable mounting bracket.

Hose reels should be securely fixed approx 1m from the floor and care taken not to place obstructions adjacent the hose that my prevent deployment in the case of a fire emergency.
