FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What happens if debris in and on the water run into the Water-Gate?
The Water-Gate system is soft & exible & ows with water. Floating debris will hit the Water-Gate & bounce
back into the water causing no harm to the Water-Gate or some debris may hit & oat over the top & end up
behind the barrier. In either case the Water-Gate system will still hold back the water.
A B C D
If a wall or a tree falls on the barrier during a ood, what solution do you propose?
The Water-Gate will simply wrap itself around the object that fell on it and only a small amount of water will
go over the Water-Gate. All you have to do is remove the fallen object, and the Water-Gate will regain its
original position. The risk of tears from an object falling on the Water-Gate is pretty low. Should there be
a hole or a tear, it can easily be repaired be placing a piece of fabric inside the Water-Gate. The fabric will
adhere to the inside wall simply from the pressure of the water entering the Water-Gate.
