Meet FlowStop

How does it work?
The FlowStop flood barrier consists of two main parts: an upper cushion and a lower cushion.
The upper cushion is designed to push sideways against the wall. The intense pressure locks the device in place, creating a roof for the lower cushion.
With the upper cushion inflated, the lower cushion is trapped between the ground and the upper cushion. As it inflates, it expands and presses down against the ground, forming a water-resistant seal.
Why is it better?
Is it strong enough?
FlowStops are made of PVC, making them resistant to debris, temperature changes, wind, and strong impacts. FlowStop is built using drop-stitch technology, which is commonly used in inflatable paddleboards.
This allows us to apply over 15 PSI of pressure inside the cushions, creating an impressively strong barrier.
This pressure fills in imperfections on the surfaces it contacts, forming a water-resistant seal.
Sizes
As long or as tall as you need.

Width
We custom-make FlowStop to fit the width of your opening up to 75".
Please measure your openings from wall to wall.
Depth
The depth of the FlowStop depends on its width.
-
For openings under 78" wide: the opening needs to be at least 6" deep.
-
For openings wider than 78": the opening needs to be at least 8" deep.
Make sure your opening is deep enough for your FlowStop.
Height
FlowStop can be ordered to a height appropriate for your water levels.
Investigate and plan accordingly by understanding your flood zone requirements.
If your FlowStop is:
-
Less than 60" wide: the minimum height is 31.5”.
-
More than 60" wide: the minimum height is 39.5”.
Straps on Long FlowStops



Depending on the surface of the opening and the height and width of your FlowStop, additional straps may be required. The straps are anchored to the ground with permanent bolts. See tutorial for more information.
Wall Surfaces
FlowStop works on most surfaces.
The gasket can fill up and seal up to 0.30 inches of gaps or imperfections on your wall.
Do not use it on surfaces that are too slick.
Do not use it against drywall.
