ANNUAL INSPECTIONS & REPEAT PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE (RPM)
Annual inspections are the minimum requirement. NFPA requires that maintenance on every fire hose at your facility and your vehicles be completed on an annual basis. This maintenance includes an annual external examination of the entire hose. The means removing the hose from the rack and completely unrolling it. Then we perform a thorough visual of the entire hose. After checking the entire hose, then we pay special attention to couplings and nozzles.
