FloodRing® - Water Tank Protection System

How do you know when your hot water tank is about to fail? The answer is that you won't until it begins to leak - typically there won’t get any warning at all! The average life span of a water heater is around seven years, and when it does fail, a pressurized, unlimited amount of water can flood your basement. Water storage tanks will also continuously drip onto your basement floor during the humid summer months from unending condensation . We've had some homeowners call us because they thought their basement was leaking!

Basement Systems has a solution to the dripping and eventually leaking water tank: the FloodRing® Water Tank Protection System.

The patented FloodRing® is designed in a unique semicircle shape so it can be installed without disturbing the water heater or well tank. Two sections of the FloodRing® system are joined and adhered to the floor with a special epoxy, creating a watertight seal. The FloodRing® water tank protection system drains any water into a waterproofing system, sump pump, gravity drain, or other drainage option. The FloodRing® is specifically designed to work in conjunction with Basement Systems' WaterGuard® or DryTrak® perimeter drainage systems, or one of the sump pump systems -- the TripleSafe or SuperSump® sump pumps.

When the water heater leaks, the FloodRing® contains the flooding and drains the water away. You'll have peace of mind knowing that you are protected.
