The importance of fresh and unpolluted water near beehives has been widely misunderstood or underestimated by many beekeepers.

Under normal conditions a productive sized colony (around 60,000 bees) needs nearly 2 litres of water every day for cooling, feeding, diluting and maintaining the right level of humidity inside the hive for healthy larvae growth.

It takes around a thousand bees to participate and carry this load. By obtaining clean water nearby, the colonies use up less precious resources from the bee hive. 

Puddles in orchards and farm crops often contain spray residues and are frequented by bees if there are no alternatives. Secure your apiary hygiene and supply them clean and unpolluted water! 

In NZ, an adapter and quick connector is included to suit the common garden tap fittings. If a water supply tank is required, we recommend a tap is fitted to suit the standard quick connector. These taps are available from most department stores like Bunnings.

Features: 

• Food-Grade Polypropylene (PP) Twin-walled construction
• Adjustable water level
• Replaceable ball cock valve
• Floating PVC landing board that prevents bees from drowning
• Connects with the local fresh water supply system or a water tank.
• 10 Litre capacity
• 5-year Warranty
• Dimensions: 495mm long x 390mm wide x 205mm high

These high quality hose reels are an excellent way for getting your syrup from the tank to the beehive while keeping everything in a tidy orderly fashion. We know that these are put under great pressure when used by beekeeping staff therefore we didn't stop until we found ones of exceptional quality.

On each rotation, the reel has a click position where it can lock to prevent rewinding back. To release, pull hose out a small amount to release, then retract the hose on the reel.

Specifications:

Auto Retract Hose Reel with 20 metres of 20mm delivery hose and a dispenser nozzle fitted. Has a 25mm inlet fitting.

Due to the weight of sugar syrup, we recommend that the reel is mounted on a flat surface like as shown in the photo. Not mounted on a vertical surface.
