| Floodwater door  2011 was just ten days old when the River Rhine and River Mosel broke their banks, flooding properties – the snow had melted quickly due to a sharp rise in temperature - followed by heavy rainfall. Experts fear that global warming will lead to an increase in such natural disasters. To reduce the damage caused by floodwater to properties, Teckentrup has developed a new protective door. It provides watertightness to 1500 mm water column (pressing or standing water). If there is a danger of flooding, air can be pumped into a special bulb seal, e.g. using a compressor, via a concealed valve. A specially shaped stainless steel profile at the floor and the special seal prevent water entering a building.write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
