Discover how Canadian flood protection tests prove FlowStop’s inflatable barriers deliver superior home flood defense. Easy to install, highly effective, and scientifically validated, FlowStop is the trusted solution to protect your home from flooding.
Flood barriers protect buildings by sealing openings against floodwater. Types include temporary, permanent, self-closing, and modular. They resist forces like water pressure, debris, and buoyancy. Flood protection uses dry proofing (sealing out water) or wet proofing (controlled flooding). Proper protection reduces costly flood damage and meets safety standards.
