Flood Vents protect your foundation by allowing bidirectional water flow that relieves hydrostatic pressure.
Why Smart Vent?
The SMART VENT door is latched closed until flood water is present. Rising flood water activates the internal floats, which unlatch and open the door. Smart Vent’s 3-inch clearance, when open, helps let flood debris pass through unlike a typical air vent that will clog.
