Video: US Fire Pump Testimonial for Coxreels 1600 Series Reel

This testimonial video comes from US Fire Pumps, which chose Coxreels because of the capability and construction of the 1600 Series for the industrial fire market. Our 1600 Series reel is truly a versatile hybrid frame hose reel in that it can be adapted to a wide variety of applications. In the case of US Fire Pumps, it required a reel that can handle 175' of dual hydraulic hose. Our talented engineers stepped up to the challenge of this specific requirement and answered with a custom product (1600 Series) solution.  For more information and to view all of Coxreels' offerings in industrial grade hose, cord, and cable reels, please visit us online at www.coxreels.com.

Video: Plymovent Vehicle Exhaust Extraction


This video shows in 360 degrees three types of vehicle exhaust systems for clean air inside your fire stations, protecting your firefighters from hazardous diesel fumes. Diesel engines, used in fire trucks, produce a mixture of toxic gases and particulates from the combustion process. These hazardous vehicle exhaust emissions in a fire station are one of a firefighter’s most significant cancer health risk and a serious legal liability for the fire department. It is essential to create healthy and safe working conditions by reducing these risks. Protective measures are an important aspect of this. Eliminate this hazard from your fire station with our vehicle exhaust capture and removal systems. From existing stations to new design-built, our totally automatic start-up and disconnect source capture systems are the recommended method for controlling exhaust emissions in your station.
