There are many people in commercial areas, and facilities such as wires and electrical appliances are concentrated. Once a fire breaks out, the fire can easily spread.

Besides, fire hydrants are also facilities for commercial areas to help residents and merchants save themselves. Fire hydrants are usually placed at traffic nodes in streets and alleys. When disasters occur, residents and merchants can find fire hydrants in time, use water guns for self-rescue, rescue materials and protect their own safety.

In addition, fire hydrants in commercial areas also play an important role in exerting the advantages of firefighting services.
