From the Manufacturer Flood-Guard operates like a check valve to seal off water back-up caused by overloaded sewers. Water flows normally through the drain until the sewer begins to back up. Then the Flood-Guard float rises to seal off the drain opening until the water recedes. Review: Great fit and easy install - Fit perfect in my basement floor drain. Very easy to install. Remember to lubricate the float valve rod before installation for best performance and longevity. Review: On to my second set 8 years later - Bought these in 2016 and it is now 2024. Upon inspection this year it looks like the rubber is getting a bit dry rotted so I don't want it to fall off into the pipe and be lost in the sewer line. It has worked multiple times and has prevents at least a dozen basement floodings as our line is prone to backing up. Simple concept and we have a water alarm around it as it does allow for maybe a cup of water around the ball area before it finally seals.
