FAQs

What is the maximum working pressure of the hose?

What size taps is the connector compatible with?

The included tap connector is compatible with both 1/2" and 3/4" taps.

Does the hose come with a wall mount?

Yes, the hose reel comes complete with a wall bracket, screws, and bolts for mounting.

How do I clean the hose reel?

You can clean the exterior of the hose reel and the hose itself with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

Can I leave the hose reel outside all year round?

While the hose is durable, it is recommended to store the reel in a frost-free location during winter to prevent damage from freezing temperatures.

What happens if the hose gets snagged during retraction?

If the hose gets snagged, stop the retraction and gently pull the hose slightly to dislodge the obstruction. Ensure no debris is blocking the path before attempting to retract again.

How long is the hose?

The hose extends up to 40 meters in length.

Troubleshooting

Hose does not lock in place

Ensure the hose is pulled out fully to the desired length. Check for any obstructions or damage to the locking mechanism inside the casing. Ensure the reel is mounted securely and not leaning.

Hose retracts slowly or gets stuck

Check the inlet bristles for any debris or blockages. Inspect the hose for twists or kinks before retraction. Ensure the reel is mounted correctly and not at an angle that impedes retraction.

Water leaks at the tap connection

Ensure the tap connector is securely attached to both the tap and the hose inlet. Check if the rubber washer within the connector is present and in good condition. Try hand-tightening the connection.

Spray nozzle not working correctly

Twist the nozzle head firmly to cycle through the spray patterns. Ensure the hose is connected and there is adequate water pressure. If a specific pattern is blocked, try flushing water through the nozzle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up, first attach the included wall bracket to a sturdy wall using the provided screws and bolts. Ensure the bracket is level and securely fastened. Mount the hose reel onto the bracket. Connect the tap connector to your outdoor tap (compatible with 1/2" and 3/4" sizes) and then attach the hose inlet to the connector. Unfurl the hose to your desired length; it will auto-lock. To retract, give the hose a gentle tug.

Compatibility: The hose reel is compatible with standard garden taps measuring 1/2" or 3/4" in diameter. It is designed for outdoor use with cold water.

Care: After use, ensure the hose is fully retracted to prevent damage from weather or UV exposure. Periodically check the wall mount for security. Clean the exterior of the reel and hose with a damp cloth if necessary. Ensure the inlet bristles are clear of debris before retraction. Store in a frost-free location during winter months to prolong its lifespan.
