FloodBreak is committed to ensuring our customers have 24/7 peace of mind in knowing that their flood protection systems will operate when needed.

Our Field Service team takes great pride in inspecting our floodgates as they recently did at University of Houston, one of our first customers to believe in FloodBreak’s revolutionary flood control technology. The field visit proven successful, confirming that two decades after installation, all FloodBreak floodgates are ready for the next flood.

In 2001, Houston experienced record rainfall from Tropical Storm Allison, one of the worst flood disasters in U.S. history. The University of Houston took decisive action to protect its campus with 21 strategically placed automatic floodgates to safeguard vulnerable buildings and pedestrian pathways.

No People, No Power needed.
Let’s continue creating a more flood resilient future, one project at a time.
