FAQs

How do I set up the StormNReady flood barrier?

Simply place the barrier where you need protection, fill it with water using a standard garden hose, and you're ready. Our barriers are lightweight, reusable, and quick to deploy.

What’s the fastest way to fill the barrier?

While our manual recommends filling the barrier directly with water, some users find that using an electric air compressor to give it shape first can make positioning easier before adding water. This method is optional and used at your own discretion.

How long does it take to setup the StormNReady barrier?

Our barriers are designed for quick setup. Most standard-size barriers (like the 4x12) can be positioned and filled in under 5 minutes. Larger barriers or setups involving multiple units may take longer depending on water pressure, hose type, terrain, and user experience.

Can the barriers be reused?

Yes! StormNReady barriers are designed to be drained, dried, and stored for future use.

How much water do the barriers hold?

It depends on the size you purchase:
• 12x12 barrier holds approximately 560 liters (148 gallons) of water when filled.
• 4x12 barrier holds approximately 180 liters (47 gallons) of water when filled.

Will the barrier move during the flood?

No — it’s pre-filled with water, so it’s heavy and stable before the storm even starts.

Do I need any special tools or equipment?

No tools needed. All you need is a standard hose to fill and drain the barriers.

Where should I store my flood barrier?

Once drained and dried, fold it and store in a dry, cool place—closet, garage, or shed.

Does StormNReady offer a warranty?

Yes. We offer a 30-day limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects in materials or workmanship under normal use conditions.
