Flooding can occur form many sources including groundwater, storm water run-off, blocked drains and sewers (sewer flooding) and river rise etc.

Often it is not possible to prevent flooding but in areas that are prone to flooding a few additional tens of minutes warning can make all the difference when it comes to mitigating the effects. Flood gates, air-brick seal etc all take time to fit/close therefore there is little point in having a flood alarm on your front door step - it needs to be remote to give you time!

Environmental Innovations manufacture a range of remote flood alarms housed in either stainless steel or GRP enclosures to meet the most demanding needs of both the public and industry. The alarms are available with cable outputs for triggering local sirens or alarms and with GSM, SMS, GPRS or low power radio communications for remote alarming.

To this effect we have developed a surface mounted flood alarm that is specifically intended as a retro-fit that can be installed in minutes on either a solid surface of gravel/ ballast.

The output from the flood alarm can be connected into either existing site telemetry / alarms or connected to a SMS or e-mail communicator.

Featured above is our latest high specification vertically mounted flood alarm which is supplied in a stainless steel enclosure and uses a stainless steel float switch.
