1. Inflatable Dams – Flood Barrier for Homes
Inflatable dams are a type of inflatable flood barriers for homes, and are a perfect example of what homeowners can do to protect their homes and property from the ruin caused by floods. It is important that homeowners find stable solutions that they can easily install to protect their property that they can rely on. Floods are very serious, and are potentially life-threatening making the best defense, a good offense.
2. What are Water Inflated Flood Barriers?
Water inflated flood barriers are water filled cylindrical tubes that act as temporary dams. They have two double inner tubes, which hold the water and are resilient enough to withstand the external and internal pressures by using an industrial grade geo-textile material to ensure their durability. Civil engineering projects use the material to prevent soil erosion making it suitable for use in water and on any surface. Water inflated flood barriers are designed so that they are reusable.
3.Why Use the Water Inflated Flood Barrier?
1）Light-Weight Portability
When not in use, the water inflated dams can be folded and stored away for future use. Once there is no water inside, the dam deflates and for this reason, you can pack and move the barrier in your vehicle. Being portable, they can be transferred quickly between places, making them suitable for emergencies.
2)Puncture Resistant
When it rains, flood water carry debris such us rocks, branches, sewage waste from hundreds of miles away. Such debris is highly dangerous to any property and living beings. You must have a strong barrier against the water and debris.
After setting the dam, the water can’t seep through it, making it ideal for flood protection. The industrial geo-textile material that comprises our inflatable flood barriers allows it to withstand tremendous forces and impact.
3）Expandability
Our inflatable flood barriers are made to be linked together in order to form a continuous tube, filled with water to create a strong barrier. This means whether you need a cofferdam to protect a small home or if you require a cofferdam to protect your large business premises. You can also rest assured that the dams defend water level form 1’ to 12’ in height
4）Flexibility
You can modify the dam into any shape you want promptly. They will go round bushes, wind around grounds, cover a home and shed, all with ease.
5) Lifetime Investment
The damage from flood water ranges in the thousands of dollars. Even a small level can destroy the building fabric. Post-flood clean up is expensive and arduous。Items such as the carpet could need replacing, furniture will absorb water, and wooden flooring will be warped. The cost of replacing these items is in the thousands of dollars.
Though the initial cost may seem high, the purchase of inflatable flood barriers will save property worth $100,000 upwards. Additionally, once you buy one, it will last for years to come.
6）Environmentally Friendly
These dams don’t require any extensive site preparation, unlike floodwalls and levees. You don’t have to cut trees or destroy structures, it goes around them.
