The hose reel is usually at the top of most people’s lists when it comes to hot or cold water pressure washer accessories. Alkota Cleaning Systems has been designing and manufacturing industrial-grade hot and cold water pressure washers since the 1960s, so we know a thing or two when it comes to pressure washers. We’re excited to carry Alkota’s experience and commitment to intelligent design into our hose reels.
So why are hose reels the top accessory for most people? It comes down to three things, safety, portability, durability, and speed.
Safety
When you’re pressure washing, you’re moving, and tripping or getting tied up in a hose is not only annoying, it’s a safety hazard. Hose reels allow you to dispense only the amount of hose you need, keep the rest bundled, but at the ready.
Portability/Durability
Hoses, especially hundreds of feet worth, is cumbersome to arrange and transport. The hose reel eliminates fuss with a neat and orderly spool, and instead of dragging it along the ground, a reel makes portability a cinch, and it will prolong the life of your hose, saving you on a costly replacement.
Speed
If your business profits and time go hand-in-hand, a hose reel will help that cause. Being able to reel up the hose quickly and load up your machine or move to a new area will help you get more done with less time.
