WaBack Residential saves family’s basement from flooding
Peter, a homeowner in Mantorp, had previously been informed that their home had been hit by a serious flood in 1996. However, when the family bought the house, they thought that the likelihood of another flood was low, especially since over 25 years had passed without any incidents. But in August 2022, everything changed. A heavy rainstorm caused flooding, and their basement was completely destroyed.
Restoring the extensive damage was very expensive and with the help of the insurance company, the bill ended up at almost SEK 600,000. After this disaster, Peter realized that it was necessary to take measures to protect his home from future floods.
For Peter, finding a solution was crucial, to prevent the basement from flooding again and thus avoid further damage and financial losses.
The solution
Peter was advised to install a WaBack Residential, which is a backflow preventer, specifically designed for homeowners. WaBack Residential protects against flooding by automatically shutting off, preventing water from flowing back into the sewer system.
WaBack Residential was installed shortly after the 2022 flood and Peter felt safer knowing that he now had protection against future floods.
After the installation, Mantorp was once again hit by heavy rain and flooding. This time, Peter and his family, unlike many of their neighbors, survived thanks to the installed WaBack Residential backflow preventer. The backflow preventer worked exactly as promised and protected their home from once again suffering the devastating consequences of a flood.
Peter is now a very satisfied customer. The successful installation of WaBack Residential has not only saved his home from further damage, but also given him and his family a sense of security that is invaluable. The initial investment has proven to be more than worth the cost, and Peter expresses his gratitude for all the advice and the quick handling he received from the team at Wapro.
"So nice and what a fantastic product," says Peter."
That's what we at Wapro call Peace of mind!
