Can I reuse my FlowStop?
Yes! FlowStop can be used over a hundred times and has a five-year warranty.
Can I set up a FlowStop against a window?
Yes. The pressure that holds the FlowStop in place is against the sides of the opening, not the door or window. FlowStop will neither put any pressure, nor damage your door or window.
Does FlowStop resist strong wind?
Yes, our technology is designed to resist pulling and pushing forces.
Is FlowStop resistant against debris?
Yes! We tested our FlowStop against heavy logs, bricks, and scissors. Our double PVC panels are incredibly resistant.
Can I use FlowStop if my frame is uneven?
Yes, FlowStop is an inflatable device; therefore, its shape will adapt to uneven walls and their asperities.
Can I use FlowStop on a slope?
Yes, FlowStop will hold a strong seal on a slope as well.
Temperature
FlowStops are inflated at a 13.5 PSI pressure. At such pressure, even extreme temperatures will not alter the shape or resistance. We tested Flowstops at 167 °F / 75°C, without any issues.
What size do I order?
Measure the size of the entry you want to protect (not the size of the door/window), and order a FlowStop of that width. Please watch our above tutorial for more information.
Do I need to purchase tools or other equipment to use my FlowStop?
No, there is no additional cost or need for any installation tool. We include a pump to inflate your FlowStop with your order. You only need a measuring tape to measure the width.
When do I set up my FlowStop?
Your FlowStop can be inflated minutes or months before a risk of flooding is announced. We designed our high-quality valves to keep the pressure for up to 2 months.
