Check to see if the spigot has an attachment for a vacuum breaker. These are important accessories that <strong>prevent contaminated water from going back into a fresh water supply<\/strong>. So if you don&#8217;t currently have one, it might be time to install one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I&#39;m not a plumber. To my understanding the longer spigots outside with frost-free caps; drain the water out of the stem after you shut the water off at the valve.<br><br>Putting the cover over the spigot is what works<br>for my type of spout.<br><br>Also, disconnect the garden hose<\/p>&mdash; Mindy Maher \u01b8\u04dc\u01b7\u2022\u00b0*\u2665 (@MindyMaher) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MindyMaher\/status\/1358487900136960007?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 7, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Drain Out the Hose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time to remove any old buildup of water inside of the <a href=\"https:\/\/homeswhiz.co.uk\/garden-hose-reels\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"3773\">garden hose reel<\/a>. Ensure that you have an appropriate location for this, such as on a <a href=\"https:\/\/homeswhiz.co.uk\/how-to-feed-a-lawn\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"7689\">lawn<\/a>. Once you remove the old hose, the water will flood out, so be sure to <strong>pick your location<\/strong> before this happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Disconnect the Hose From the Coupling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your <a href=\"https:\/\/homeswhiz.co.uk\/how-to-make-a-garden-hose-reel\/\">garden hose reel<\/a> is completely extended, the water coupling will be visible. Disconnect this by hand, or <strong>use pliers if you&#8217;re struggling to do so<\/strong>. Then, take the new hose reel out of its packaging and spend a couple of minutes straightening it out. You may even need to leave the new hose reel out in the sun for several hours to help it to soften and be easier to then wind onto the reel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/M1st3rTea\/status\/1022228651348295680<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Insert the Rubber Washer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the rubber or vinyl washed into the bottom of the hose coupling. You&#8217;ll need a <strong>watertight seal against the drum of the hose reel<\/strong> to prevent any unwanted water splashes. Insert the end of the hose through the guided opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, thread the end onto the water coupling that is on the inner drum. Ensure that you tighten this thoroughly\u2014using pliers, if applicable. But don&#8217;t tighten so much that you break any parts; the water coupling is made of delicate materials, so you&#8217;ll need not be too heavy-handed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Wind the Hose Reel Onto the Drum<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time to wind the hose reel onto the drum. To do so, feed the hose around the drum clockwise. Grip the hose reel as you turn the handle for extra help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6: Inspect the Results<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time to inspect what you&#8217;ve done so far. Begin by <strong>checking that the feeder hose connects<\/strong> via the faucet spigot. You&#8217;ll also want to check that there aren&#8217;t any cracks in the hose. Finally, inspect that the hose attaches to the reel drum with a clamp and is tightly clamped down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">When the instruction manual has you like \ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2640\ufe0f just <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/YouTube?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@YouTube<\/a> it.

Ensure that you use your reel properly, ensuring that you never tug at the mounting bracket or act roughly with the hose reel in general since these can lead to the hose reel getting damaged easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another top tip for keeping your hose reel in good shape is to <strong>regularly clean its surface to wipe off dirt and debris<\/strong>. Doing so helps to keep the entire hose and reel looking clean and neat. <strong>Avoid using any harsh chemicals<\/strong>; some soapy water will do the job fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Good for you!

If you have a&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/article\/10-ways-to-keep-your-garden-healthy\" target=\"_blank\">large garden<\/a>, you&#8217;ll require a large hose reel to reach all areas.

Either way, it&#8217;s better to <strong>choose the larger option than the smaller one<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the best results, you might need to measure your garden before buying a hose reel; the more accurate you can be with your calculations, the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Love this.

In this case, you&#8217;ll want a reel system that&#8217;s lightweight and easy to move around. The last thing you want is to be lugging a heavy reel around your yard. Plus, a lightweight design prevents putting too much weight on the ground, which could destroy your grass and garden layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">using drum fr garden hose reel, rigged \ud83d\udc47on wheels &#8211; easy to move around, no tangling or twisting, easy to store.  btw is fr shovel i managed to break in a diff project <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NE0ErKlJEf\">pic.twitter.com\/NE0ErKlJEf<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Vahid Fathi (@i_sundog) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/i_sundog\/status\/1257342096371077120?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 4, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Durability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bear in mind that you&#8217;ll store your garden hose reel outside, so it&#8217;s important that it&#8217;s <strong>made with waterproof, durable materials that are weather resistant<\/strong>. If you choose to install a stainless steel hose reel, opt for one that features a non-rusting substance on the exterior for the best weatherproof material. The last thing you want is to purchase wooden materials, for example, that don&#8217;t offer protection against rust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Tarrin got himself into a bit of a tangle pulled the garden hose off the reel\ud83d\ude48\ud83d\ude48\ud83d\ude48\ud83e\udd23 yep he is covered in mud and a hole in the hose. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/adoptionlooming?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#adoptionlooming<\/a> \ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/li4UPB1iCD\">pic.twitter.com\/li4UPB1iCD<\/a><\/p>&mdash; yogi (@AlisonW37619617) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AlisonW37619617\/status\/1382596121143480320?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 15, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several types to consider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wall Mounted<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A wall-mounted hose reel is stored on an exterior wall near a faucet. It&#8217;s typically around two to feet from the ground and, although it offers transportation limitations, you don&#8217;t have to worry about carrying the hose around your garden. In fact, this is an <strong>excellent option for smaller gardens<\/strong>. Alternatively, you can consider multiple wall-mounted reels for covering a large distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cart Mounted<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed with wheels, a cart-mounted garden hose reel is <strong>convenient for moving around<\/strong> and is handy when your hose becomes too heavy to lug around the garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Portable garden hose reel cart from Elegant Junsheng Garden Tools Depot <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mquPrtlyT4\">pic.twitter.com\/mquPrtlyT4<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Sandy Zuo (@Elegantjunsheng) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Elegantjunsheng\/status\/989349108593844226?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 26, 2018<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hose Cabinet<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>These aren&#8217;t all that common. They sit on the ground and offer a space to hide your hose when you&#8217;re not using it. You can play around with choosing a cabinet that suits your style and tastes, helping to add a little sense of you to your backyard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Self-Retracting or Auto-Winding Reels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, decide how you want the connecting hose to install to the reel. A <strong>self-retracting reel<\/strong> features a spring in the reel mechanism that tightens when the hose is unspooled. With a quick tug, the hose is retracted thanks to spring tension. There&#8217;s also a locking mechanism that prevents the hose from spooling back until you&#8217;re ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, <strong>auto-winding reels<\/strong> are available with water pressure-driven hose retractors that feature a water piston to force out water. They&#8217;re also available as motor-driven, which comes with a battery to wind the hose in using a switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Little did I know the Sunday install of a new garden hose reel was actual a pirate ship\u2019s helm. \ud83c\udff4\u200d\u2620\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fwk9iqGwMo\">pic.twitter.com\/fwk9iqGwMo<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Chris Fetterly, PhD \u2014 e\/acc (@ChrisFetterly) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChrisFetterly\/status\/1267174423708106754?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 31, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Do You Care for Your Hose?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing how to put a garden hose on a reel could make your gardening experience a more positive one, so we hope this article has helped.
