ICC-ES Certified Flood Protection Systems

Why Flood Protection Matters

Properties in Special Flood Hazard Areas require automatic flood vents for NFIP compliance. Non-compliant foundations risk insurance denial or higher premiums. Trapped floodwater creates hydrostatic pressure causing catastrophic foundation damage costing tens of thousands to repair. ICC-ES certification provides documentation required for insurance and building permits.

How Flood Protection Works

  1. Install ICC-ES Certified Vents – Automatically allow floodwater entry/exit, equalizing pressure
  2. Calculate Coverage – Each vent covers 220 sq ft of enclosed area
  3. Position Properly – Two opposing walls, within 12 inches of grade
  4. Choose Application – Multi-purpose ventilation or sealed for encapsulated spaces
  5. Document for Insurance – ICC-ES certification validates NFIP compliance

Meet NFIP requirements, reduce insurance premiums, and protect foundations from hydrostatic pressure with engineered flood vents.
