Firefighters use a wide variety of fire fighting equipment to do their job. Axes, heat protective coats and pants, helmets, fire trucks, fire hoses, etc. It takes a lot of equipment to fight fires.

Hose testers are fire fighting equipment used in a support role at fire departments and using one brings many advantages that you will certainly like as a fire department manager. Here are a few of them :

  • You can bring it anywhere, so you can perform your hose tests wherever you want to.
