Wapro protects coastal communities
Lagercrantz’ subsidiary Wapro protects coastal communities from tidal flooding with their back-flow prevention device, WaStop.
This TV report from the west coast of Florida, U.S.A shows how Wapro, together with the Municipality, has eliminated backflow in stormwater systems caused by tidal or storm events using WaStop inline check valves. Elimination of backflow means an end to tidal flooding in many areas.
The installations in Florida have provided peace of mind to many residents. The Cities who have opted for the WaStop Inline Check valve have been able to save considerable sums on maintenance due to the pulsating flow of the valve, as well as protecting entire areas from tidal flooding.
