Fire hose reel servicing and maintenance
Fire hose reels are an indispensable part of every fire department, but they can’t be relied on to work perfectly on their own. It is important that you take the time to check your fire hose reel regularly, so that it can continue to function at its peak efficiency.
A few simple checks will ensure that your fire hose reel is in good condition and ready for use at any time:
- Check the hose for damage. If there are any cuts or frays in the material, replace it immediately before it causes problems with other parts of your equipment as well as potentially putting yourself or others at risk.
- Check the ends of each individual segment (or “run length”) where they connect together for signs of cracking or wear and tear due to friction during use; if this does occur then consider replacing those sections as well if possible so as not compromise overall performance capabilities when needed most urgently later down road somewhere down line from now onwards etcetera ad infinitum ad nauseam…
