FAQ
Wall or freestanding hose reel?
Wall saves space; freestanding suits larger blocks.
Hose length?
Measure tap to farthest bed and add spare — often 20–30 m.
Auto-rewind?
Convenient if the mechanism is solid and hose resists kinks.
Fittings?
Solid connectors leak less.
Sun?
UV-stable hose; store off hot concrete when possible.
