Automatic Vs. Manual Fire Hose Reel: What is the Difference?

Automatic fire hose reels are designed to provide an immediate and continuous water supply when the hose is pulled out. These reels are ideal for situations where quick response is crucial, as the water flow is automatically activated without the need for additional steps.

Manual fire hose reels require the user to open a valve to release the water flow manually. While they may require an extra step compared to automatic reels, manual fire hose reels offer greater control over water usage, which can be advantageous in situations where the total pressure of the water is not immediately needed.

Keep Your Workplace Compliant

It is important in any commercial building or workplace to have the appropriate fire safety measures in place to help in the event of an emergency. Your equipment must undergo regular maintenance, servicing, and tests in order to comply with the government’s fire safety regulations.

Why Choose a Fire Hose Reel?

There is a crucial time window between contacting the emergency services and their arrival. During this window, it can be important to tackle a blaze if it is safe to do so, and fire hoses are one of the most effective ways to do this as they can extinguish blazes up to ten times larger than fire extinguishers.

Installing an automatic or manual fire hose reel in your building is an important fire safety measure for ensuring the safety of your building occupants. Our fire hose reels can effectively manage fire by providing an unlimited water supply to help you tackle the heat.
