Step-by-step FLOODSTOP barrier assembly
STEP 1
Inspect ground conditions and clear any debris
STEP 2
Position FLOODSTOP pods in linear position for the chosen barrier length
STEP 3
Fully insert connection keys
STEP 4
Apply the required curvature to the barrier
STEP 5
Pre-fill at least 1 of every 3rd unit with water ballast. Rest of the units automatically fill with the rising flood waters.
Wall Connections and Disbandment
Connecting the Floodstop barrier to a wall using a Multi-hub:
- Connect the Multi-hub pod to end of the assembled FLOODSTOP flood barrier
- Rotate the 'cam-like' pod into the in-situ object (typically a wall). May need to wedge unit
- Fill the pod with water ballast
Disbanding the Floodstop flood barrier:
- Remove universal keys
- Drain water from pre-filled units by tipping the units over carefully (FS24 system) or by unscrewing the water-release caps (FS36 system)
- Pack the system away
Important Assembly Notes
All of our flood barrier systems work to a height of approximately 70-80%. A freeboard is required when in use.
If the wall or ground surface is not adequately flat (i.e. where Floodstop’s foam gaskets are in contact) the seepage rate may vary - it is recommended to have a small pump on hand to pump away excessive leakage if required.
The system is not recommended for use on gravel.

Customer Testimonials
"We discovered that FLOODSTOP barriers are a fraction of the cost of alternative flood prevention products on the market. Knowing we have effective prevention from the threat of flooding is a great weight off our minds. They are easy and simple to use and when the job is done they can be simply picked up and put back in the garage."
