Smart Flood Vents
10/06/26
“How can we make flood vents that open themselves during heavy storms?”
Flood vents allow stormwater to pass through buildings to avoid foundation damage. But manually opening a flood vent can be dangerous and exhausting. So what if we were to produce a flood vent that automatically opens when water touches the vent? Well, this is the idea behind Smart Flood Vents. Smart flood vents are a worthwhile upgrade for many different types of buildings.
