Patented Floodlock® Flood Trap Tape: A new way to reduce flooding & heat loss from doors
Sitting in the gaps around a door through which most heat is lost Flood Trap Tape helps save energy as a draught excluder.
Uniquely it is developed to automatically reduce more water flow through gaps around doors than sandbags, so you have more time to react to a flood.
- In a before & after test 95% of water thrown at a door was kept out by Flood Trap Tape as you can see in this video.
- A standard 1.8m (5.9 ft) long pack can be effective against 0.59m (2ft) deep floods when used on a 91.5cm (3ft) wide door with a 15cm (6") high doorstep.
- Quick & easy to use it can be applied months before an unpredictable flood.
- More affordable & energy-saving than most alternative flood defences.
- At 3-4mm (1/8-3/16") thick it fits neatly in door gaps, so the door can be used while the tape is in place and dry.
- Once wet it swells within 5 minutes to form a water-resistant seal so it could be wet before the door is closed or left to be wet by
Important Notes
- Floodlock® Flood Trap Composite Tape is designed to reduce water entry, not to seal out 100% of flood water because 30cm of flood water is enough to float a car & sealing out all the water could cause structural damage.
- The performance of Floodlock® Flood Trap Composite Tape may vary with the severity of the flood, the composition of the flood water, the condition of the door, its frame and fittings, and other factors.
- Floodlock® Flood Trap Composite Tape is intended to buy time during a flood emergency. After the flood, remove the tape and dispose of it properly.
