Passive Automatic Flood Barriers

Passive Automatic Flood Barriers are an advanced and effective solution for flood protection. These barriers are automatic, meaning they can deploy as flood waters approach without the need for human intervention or power. This passive flood protection option is always ready to protect without advanced warning, providing peace of mind for property owners in the floodplain. When not in use, the barriers remain hidden and blend into the architectural design of the surrounding area, making them a discreet and attractive option for flood protection. 

HORIZONTAL PASSIVE FLOOD BARRIER

As flood waters rise, the FloodBreak Automatic Flood Barrier is lifted to a 90° angle and held closed by hydrostatic pressure, providing a highly effective barrier against flood waters. When not in use, the barrier can be driven and walked over, ensuring ease of use and accessibility. Additionally, their horizontal design allows for a shallow installation set-down, making them an ideal option for properties with limited space or difficult terrain.

PASSIVE VENT BARRIER

The passive vent systems provide 24/7 flood protection for air intake and exhaust vents, ducts, window openings, and vent shafts, whether above or below grade. Only panels affected by rising water activate, allowing unaffected panels to remain open. Once floodwaters recede, the panels reopen automatically, resuming normal airflow. Needing minimal maintenance, these customizable systems are field-tested in
harsh, real-world conditions and fit
virtually any opening.
