Hose Bed Covers

The R·O·M Hose Bed Cover is a custom-made protective cover for emergency vehicle truck and hose beds used to secure and protect stored equipment, hoses and supplies. It provides safety, security and efficiency for the fire service, and features an optional NFPA compliant walk surface.

Hose Bed Covers are ideal for emergency service providers looking to secure equipment stored in a truck or hose bed. Examples include:

• urban departments needing to lock-up equipment on the fireground;
• departments who have previously ejected hose responding to a call;
• wildland fire departments who travel on uneven terrain and experience equipment shifts;
• departments looking to prevent smoldering embers from damaging hose and equipment.

Standards addressed in NFPA 1962 (the care and use of fire hose) highlight the important protective and safety benefits of hose bed covers:

"The use of a protective hose bed cover is recommended to protect the hose load from weather damage and other physical damage. ... Covers should be made from flame-resistant materials and secured to the apparatus in a manner that prevents them from blowing off while the apparatus is in motion."
