This European Standard gives recommendations for inspection and maintenance of hose reels and hose systems such that they continue to provide the service for which they were manufactured, supplied or installed, i.e. to ensure a first emergency intervention to fight a fire before more powerful means can be implemented.
This standard is applicable to hose reel and hose system installations in all types of buildings irrespective of the nature of use of the buildings.
