Annual Hose Testing
 
By Department Chief Mike Cameron

Each year Cypress Pointe Fire/Rescue test all of our fire hose as required both federally and by the state. Hose is tested under pressure to verify that it will with stand normal operating pressure and that there are no malfunctions in the hose or it's couplings.
We test approximately 7,000 feet of hose and it takes over a week to complete this process.
