A fire hydrant system is an active fire protection method, consisting of a water supply system, providing adequate pressure and flowrate to a water distribution piping system. The fire hydrants are connected to RRL hose reels which are used as extensions for delivering the pressurized water to the point of fire. Fire hydrants also offer as a source of water supply to the fire brigade for fighting the fire.
