The Hose Reel Service is carried out to BS 5306 : Part 1. The hose reels are fully unwound and subjected to normal operating pressure. The integrity of the drum gland nuts and internal operating valve are checked, together with the condition of the hose and valves/nozzles.

After the service, the pressure is released and the hose reel is rewound. Where necessary, flow tests will be carried out to ensure that the water flow is above the minimum requirement of 30 litres/minute. Charges for flowtesting are additional to the hose reel unit charge.
