It’s one of the most annoying things to have to deal with when owning a home. You go to check on your water heater in the basement (or wherever it’s located) and you see pools of water leaking in multiple directions.
Getting someone to come out and fix the leak will take multiple days. You have to spend time on the phone scheduling the appointment for someone to come to your house between your already busy schedule. On top of that you need a short-term solution ASAP and the options seem limited.
You know standard paper towels won’t absorb that much water without going through multiple rolls and constantly checking on the leak every couple of minutes. You need a solution that will contain and control the water so that it doesn’t spread to the rest of your basement and cause mold.
Lucky for you, there are perfect solutions for your leaking water heater. Check this out.
Insta-Dam
The Insta-Dam is an instant portable dam that controls, contains, and diverts problematic water inside your home. This is perfect for leaks especially from your water heater.
Insta-Dam is made of a polyurethane material that is chemical resistant. The 2in x 2in square shape seals to surfaces so that when the leaking water rushes against it, it will stay in place. Insta-Dam is 4ft in length and extremely flexible so it can bend into any formation that suits your water control needs.
The best part about Insta-Dam is that it is reusable. It works water, oil, chemicals and more and ships in an orange tube for easy transport and storage. Once Insta-Dam has done its job with your leaking water heater just place it back in the tube and store until you need it again.
Having Insta-Dam on hand is the perfect solution for your leaking water heater. Winter is approaching and that is a very significant season for in-home leaks. The best way to combat these leaks is to be prepared before hand so don’t wait to get your Insta-Dam. Start now!
