Choosing the right flood protection barriers can be tricky, but understanding a few key variables can help guide your decision.

Choose Between Flood Berms
-
Water Filled Flood Barrier
The Guppy™ Water Filled Flood Tube is a flooding solution designed with quick deployment and cost effectiveness in mind. Just simply fill with water and Guppy™ will divert water away from homes, schools, facilities, municipal buildings and more.
• Completely water filled
• Fills and deploys in minutes
• Lengths up to 100 feet
• Diameters of 6", 12" and 24" available • Ideal for locations with water access
-
Air Inflatable Flood Barrier
The Serpent™ Tube Barrier is an inflatable flood protection tube that is ideal for municipalities and institutions looking to protect valuable facilities and infrastructure from flooding. With 3+ feet of protection height the Serpent™ is a big solution for big incoming flood threats.
• Completely air filled
• Quickly inflates in minutes
• 3'+ of flood protection height
• Extended skirting handles high water levels
• Ideal for locations without water access
Garrison™ Flood offers both water filled and inflatable flood control tubes.
Depending on your application, choose between our larger, inflatable flood control tube barriers (Serpent™), or our smaller water filled water diversion tubes (Guppy™).
While both flood tube walls offer robust protection against water penetration and both systems will hold back and divert water, the inflatable Serpent tube has a larger diameter, of 40”, is more robust and incorporates an extended skirting that provides ballast and additional protection. The Serpent tube barrier is suited for municipalities and institutions looking to protect neighborhoods, infrastructure, and facilities, and for high value homeowners looking to protect their valuable home against damage.
The Guppy™, water filled aqua tube, is a more economical option that can be deployed quickly to divert water away from homes, schools, municipal buildings, golf club facilities, and other valuable assets. Guppy barriers are also ideal for stairwell and doorway protection, garage protection and general perimeter protection of homes and facilities.
