I too bought a 30m retractable hose thinking it to be a good investment despite original price. After a few years now of limited use it has stopped retracting and has no weight on the spring. I am told this is not repairable!! A "retractable" hose that doesn't retract is surely unfit for purpose. How will this be rectified ?

My hose reel rewind guide is worn (hose bunching on one side). I want to order a replacement but the only info here is to ring. Can I order a part on line? I can then check the cost, address, name and part are correct rather than guessing the other person heard me correctly. Thanks.

I've had 2 did the same, they finally retracted but not fully, went downhill from there. If it's under warranty, return it. Either get a replacement or my recommendation get your money back and get a hoselink reel

Hey there, I’ve got a Holman 30 auto retract hose reel.
My issue is that I had a leak at the internal hose fitting. I’ve unwound the hose from the unit locked it in with the locking bars and fixed the leak(hose pulling out from female hose fitting screw on clamp). When I’ve gone to click the female hose end onto the hose reel male receptor the locking bars have let go and the reel has completely unwound. My question is, is the reel and tensioner spring resettable like a workshop hydraulic hose reel, or is the item now U/S and needs replacing? I’m hoping I can just wind the reel by hand to set the tension again!!

Cheers

Hi, 17/46 is the number under my lid. The guide basically lost all tension after the unit kept bunching to one side and now when it reels back in I have to move it from side to side manually to try and mimic the layering action. Of course, the last few metres never goes back in.
I’m looking for the receipt as we speak, but wouldn’t think it would be more than 18 months old. Love the concept, but should have known nothing is made to last anymore. Back to the old wheel rim if the $140 gizmo can’t be fixed... cheers Yonny.

Hi
my 30m retractable hose is unable to retract. Is there some easy way to fix this or do I need to return my hose. I've had it for about 12 months with the last 6-8 weeks unable to retract.

Hello.
I have had my holman retractable hose for about 2 years. Great purchase.
However, just recently the little wheel spinner that moves from side to side to guide the hose in when it retracts has stopped moving, therefore all the hose is bunching up on one side.
Just wondering is there an easy way to fix it??
Thanks

Open the inspection cover on top lever the white sliding piece out or cut it out remove off hose as well Cut it off .... when retracting just move hose left to right

A bit late but after opening the access panel have a look at the small drive belt. It may have just slipped of the cog in which case its an easy fix.

Hello
At the end of 2017 early 2018 our 20 townhouse complex each had a new 30m retractable hose installed. I have never used the hose beyond the 7m x 7m courtyard but two days ago I pulled it out 20 metres to the driveway to wash down a car covered in ash. Tried to put the hose back but it will not retract more than 5m of hose leaving 10 - 15 metres of hose out. Is there anyway to fix this? Look inside cover and xaw 17/31 XW30. Unable to get purchase details from the previous Strata Manager but it was a group buy. Can you advise if this is still under warranty or how I can fix it. Thanks Chris

Sometimes, as with all hose or cord rewinds, pull it all the way out and then slowly let it feed back in. This should rectify the problem

Hello CC. If your retractable is not performing correctly and it is under warranty ( which the batch number does indicate) the process is to return it to Bunnings with your proof of purchase and it will be replaced for you.

Hi my Holman reel returns OK but all in one spot. The sliding merchanism is jammimg and the belt jumping notches. Lubrication doesn't seem to help. Is the sliding guide replaceable?

So my Holman 30 1721 model failed about 3 months into use and I see it is not an uncommon problem, I have just used it as an expensive non retracting hose for ages until now when I have tried to reloop the hose around the cylinder . I have given up. Based on the series is it under warranty? Pieces of metal have fallen out parts of the spring, I am guessing. Purchased from Bunnings.

Hello Steve, thank you for your query. This is beyond warranty, based on the batch number. If you have your receipt, you are welcome to take it to Bunnings, it will be at their discretion whether they exchange it or not.

I have the exact same problem but I fixed it to the wall. Its a lot of trouble the remove and take back to Bunnings. Ive had this hose for 10months and no longer retracts.
