Common Questions

The hose reel is leaking - plumbing issue

There are only 3 possible sources of a leak on an ELEY or Rapid-Reel hose reel:

  1. The brass swivel
  2. The inlet hose
  3. The connection between the swivel & inlet hose

Please visit our How to Fix a Leaking Hose Reel page to find out more information, order replacement parts, or submit a warranty claim.

Paint Topics

Many factors can contribute to the fading or deterioration of our premium quality power coat paint. A number of them are external in nature and not due to the painting process itself.

For this reason, our paint is covered by a 1-year warranty instead of the 10-year warranty that covers the rest of the hose reel. The fading of the paint from exposure to the sun's UV rays is specifically excluded from our warranty coverage.

Visit our Remedies for Paint Issues to explore all options related to paint issues.

Is my hose reel still under warranty? 
  1. Is your hose reel over 10-years old?
  2. Is the failed component due to damage caused by freezing, accidents or misuse?

If the answer to both questions is "NO", then your hose reel is likely still under our 10-Year Warranty. Please take a photo or short video of the failed component and upload it using our online Warranty Claim Form, and someone from our customer support team will promptly reply to your request.

If the answer to either question is "YES", then it is not covered by our warranty.  Click on the picture of your model below to explore replacement parts availability and purchase options.
