This 3" Flood-Guard Stand Pipe prevents basement flooding. It operates like a check valve to seal off water back-up caused by overloaded sewers. Water flows normally through the drain until the sewer begins to back up. Then the Flood-Guard float rises to seal off the drain opening until the water recedes. Once in place, it can prevent property damage and a very messy clean-up job. The Stand Pipe is recommened to be used for extreme, extended pressure (for instance, where homemade seals have popped out of the line).
Features:
- The pipe is slipped through the rubber gasket before the screws are fully tightened
