Prevent Damage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hydrant hoses are made of strong materials, but that doesn&#8217;t mean they can&#8217;t be damaged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, if you roll it up carelessly, the hose can be bent or even torn, which can reduce its lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Keeping_the_Hose_Clean\"><\/span>2. Keeping the Hose Clean<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Rolling up your fire hydrant hose neatly is essential to make cleaning and maintenance easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By rolling it up properly, the risk of trapping dirt and dust in the folds of the hose is minimized, keeping the hose clean and ready to use when needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if the hose is rolled up carelessly, dirt and dust can accumulate, which not only reduces the efficiency of the hose, but can also pose a risk during emergency situations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Makes_it_Easy_to_Use_in_Emergencies\"><\/span>3. Makes it Easy to Use in Emergencies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine there\u2019s a fire and firefighters struggling to unroll a tangled and messy hose; this situation can slow down their response to the fire. To avoid this, it is very important to roll up hydrant hoses the right way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With proper rolling, the hose will always be ready for use at any time, allowing officers to quickly carry out their duties without a hitch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Save_Spaces\"><\/span>4. Save Spaces<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Rolling up your fire hose properly not only saves space in your storage area, but it&#8217;s also very important when you have a lot of other equipment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With an organized storage space, you can easily find and retrieve the equipment you need during a fire emergency.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This helps speed up the response process, allowing firefighters to focus on their duties without being hampered by clutter in the storage area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Prevents_Accident\"><\/span>5.

The reason is, there could be parts of the hose that dangle and make people trip and cause injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Also Read: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/what-are-the-types-of-fire-hoses\/\">What Are The Types of Fire Hoses?<\/a>&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Roll_Fire_Hose_Properly\"><\/span>How to Roll Fire Hose Properly?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/How-to-Roll-Fire-Hose-Properly-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2925\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/How-to-Roll-Fire-Hose-Properly-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/How-to-Roll-Fire-Hose-Properly-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/How-to-Roll-Fire-Hose-Properly-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/How-to-Roll-Fire-Hose-Properly-3-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know there are various methods of rolling firehose? Yup, there are! But in this article we will cover the two easiest and most common ones! Let\u2019s get going!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Single_Roll\"><\/span>1. Single Roll&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, let&#8217;s discuss the single roll, the most common hydrant hose rolling technique. Here are the steps to roll up a fire hydrant hose single roll!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Connect one end of the hose to the hydrant or water source. Make sure the connection is strong and there are no leaks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After use, make sure the hose is empty of water. Lift the hose from the opposite end to the hydrant and let the water drain out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Roll up the hydrant hose from the end connected to the hydrant. Hold the end of the hose in your hand and roll it neatly inward, forming a circle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure each winding of the hose is taut and not loose. Loose rolls can cause damage to the hose.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When you have finished rolling, tie the hose with a string or use a hose clamp to keep the roll from unraveling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Double_Roll\"><\/span>2. Double Roll<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Double rolls are a little tricky, but they are very effective for neater storage and to avoid damage from creases. So, here are the steps!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Just like the single reel, connect the hose end to the hydrant or water source first.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure the hose is empty of water in the same way, i.e. lift it from the opposite end and let the water drain out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fold the hose into two equal lengths, with the ends meeting in the middle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Start by rolling up the hydrant hose from the folded section. Grasp the fold of the hose and roll it up neatly, forming a double loop.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure that each twist of the hose remains taut and there are no sharp creases that could damage the hose structure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tie the reel with a rope or hose clamp, as with a single reel, to keep it neat and unraveled.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it! A guide on how to roll a fire hose properly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that a fire hose also needs to be certified by the SNI certification before it\u2019s being used?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of its crucial role in fire fighting equipment, fire hoses need to meet a certain standard that is applied in Indonesia to ensure its capability in extinguishing a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why the standard has been set and every fire hose that is used in either a building or fire truck needs to meet this standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The standard itself is clearly stated in SNI UL 19:2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Roll Fire Hose Properly &#8211; Did you know that you can\u2019t roll up<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2923,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[43,148,145,8],"class_list":["post-2922","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-fire-extinguisher","tag-fire-fighting-equipment","tag-fire-hose","tag-sni"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2922","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2922"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2922\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2923"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2922"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2922"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2922"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
