Installing self-floating water retaining bulkhead

Climate change is causing increasingly heavy rainfall. Because of these heavy rainstorms, there is also a greater chance of flooding. This may call for measures to better protect your home from flooding. Installing a self-raising water retaining bulkhead in front of a passageway prevents water from flowing in.

What is a self-propelled shot?

A self-floating water-resistant bulkhead seals off passages such as doors and prevents water from flowing in. A self-floating bulkhead is a permanent fixture at your home. You don't have to manually install a self-floating bulkhead. It rises automatically when it comes into contact with incoming water. This prevents flooding even when you are not at home.

Cost

Realizing a self-floating bulkhead costs about €6,000 per m.

Space use

It makes sense if water flows into your house through the front or back door, the cuckoo, a door or other opening on the first floor, into the basement or the garage under the house.

Maintenance

A self-floating bulkhead requires regular maintenance so that it works properly during flooding.

Tips

Health that the self-raising bulkhead can move freely at the time of flooding. An obstructed or blocked bulkhead cannot rise.
