Hose Box
Fire hose boxes are designed to mainly hold hose rack units and fire fighting equipment safely. Fire hose boxes are extensively used to store the fire hoses and nozzles. Fire hose boxes are widely used in education institutes, schools, corporate towers, shopping malls, warehouses and in industrial, residential and commercial buildings.
Fire hose cabinets are available in varieties of surface mounted, recessed, semi-recessed, and trimless varieties. The doors of hose box have a turn handle, and continuous piano hinge constructed of the same material used in the door and trim.
The doors possess good fire and corrosion resistant properties, and are designed in such a manner that along with providing a sophisticated look.The standard door and trim material of hose box is steel, and optional materials include both aluminum and stainless steel.
Hose Reel
Hose reel is an important piece of equipment in fire safety and fire protection. Fire hose reels are used to provide a reasonably accessible and controlled supply of water to prevent a potential fire risk. Hose reels provide a consistent level of extinguishing the fire that was ignited on the site, and can extinguish larger fires.
Fire hose reels are generally located near the exits and escape routes of the building. Hose reels must be placed where it can service an entire floor of the building. Fire hose reels are used in buildings where the floor area exceeds 500m and in large areas or corridor where a 9 liter extinguisher may not provide adequate cover. They are ideal for large high risk environments such as schools, hotels, factories etc. Hose Reels can be used for woods, textiles, furniture, plastics etc. They must not be used on electrical fires and/or flammable liquids.
Fire hose reel consists of main turn on/off valve, a hose guide, and a hose with a nozzle. Control nozzle enables the operator to control the direction and flow of water to the fire.
Hose reels must be tested every six months in order to ensure that they are kept to operating standards. These tests include checking whether the proper signage is in place, making sure that the reel swings uninhibited, that the nozzle interlocks, and whether it is able to unwind and properly access the entire floor.

Hydrant Hose
A fire hydrant hose is a very high pressure fire hose used to take water to a fire. It is attached to a fire hydrant, and the pressure is between 800 and 2000 kPa. Fire hydrant hoses that have larger capacities carry more water at low temperatures. It may also carry fire retardant materials.
The effectiveness of a fire hose depends on the diameter of the hose. If the hose is of a smaller diameter, it will require higher pressure. If the hose is of a larger diameter, it will carry more water at lower pressures. Fire hoses must be dried because water left in a hose can cause deterioration.
Fire hydrant hoses are cut and coupled into lengths of 50 or 100 feet. Fire hoses are manufactured in various configurations such as single jacket, double jacket, rubber single jacket, or hard rubber non collapsing jacket. Each type of fire hydrant hose is designed for a specific purpose.
