Fixed Systems

Fire hose reel systems

Fire hose reel systems provide a fixed water-based firefighting point for use within the intended system and facility response arrangement.

Fixed Response Point

Water on hand, permanently connected.

A hose reel is a permanently connected firefighting point fed from the facility's fire-protection water network. Unlike a portable extinguisher, it doesn't run out with a single unit's capacity — it works for as long as the supply behind it performs.

Within The Arrangement

Part of a response plan, not a substitute for one.

Hose reels exist within the facility's intended response arrangement. Where they are positioned, who uses them and how they fit alongside evacuation and other systems is part of the facility's fire-safety planning.

The Assembly

What a hose reel point involves.

  • 01

    Reel & Hose

    The wound hose assembly, ready to run out toward the fire risk area.

  • 02

    Cabinet / Mounting

    The recessed or surface arrangement housing the reel, per the installation design.

  • 03

    Supply Valve

    Connects the reel to the fire-protection water network.

  • 04

    Nozzle

    Controls the discharge at the point of use.

Behind The Reel

Only as good as its supply.

Every reel depends on the water network feeding it — and where the available supply cannot deliver the required pressure alone, on the fire pump system behind it.

Design-Dependent

Layout follows the building.

Reel positions, the areas they serve and their supply arrangement are defined by the system design for the specific facility. A site survey establishes the layout — there is no universal template.

Our Approach

Assess. Specify. Install. Support.

  1. 01

    Assess

    We begin by understanding the facility, the requirement and the protection need.

  2. 02

    Specify

    We identify the equipment or system appropriate to the application.

  3. 03

    Install

    We supply and implement the agreed solution.

  4. 04

    Support

    We provide servicing, maintenance and technical support where required.

Keep every point serviceable.

Reels, valves and hoses need ongoing inspection to remain usable — see fire system maintenance.

Reels and hydrants differ.

A reel is a ready-to-use response point; a hydrant is a water access point for response equipment.

Fire Hydrant Systems

Hose reel questions.

What is a fire hose reel system?

A fixed water-based firefighting point: a permanently connected hose reel supplied from the facility's fire-protection water network, for use within the intended system and facility response arrangement.

How is a hose reel different from a fire hydrant?

A hose reel is a self-contained response point with its own hose and nozzle; a hydrant is a designated water-access point that response equipment connects to. They play different roles within a facility's water architecture.

Does hose reel system layout depend on the building?

Yes. Positions, coverage and supply arrangements are defined by the system design for the specific building — layouts are not universal.

A site survey establishes where hose reel points belong and what supply they need.
