Fire department will check fire hydrants
In Geldrop-Mierlo there are more than 1500 fire hydrants. These are connected to Brabant Water's pipeline network and supply the fire department with sufficient fire-fighting water when needed.
Control between July 1 and August 31
Between July 1 and Aug. 31, the fire department checks fire hydrants. It checks that the hydrants are working properly and looks at their accessibility and designation. In case of fire, the firefighters present always know where a hydrant is located. The checks are during the day, as well as at night and on weekends. After all, our firefighters are volunteers, who go to perform the checks in their free hours.
