Flood Precautions

In any flooding or potential flooding event, the following actions should be taken:

Protecting your home

Elevate the furnace, water heater, and electric panel if susceptible to flooding

Install check valves in sewer traps to prevent floodwater from backing up into your home.

Seal walls in basements with waterproofing compounds to avoid seepage.

Keep an adequate supply of food, candles and drinking water in case you are trapped inside your home.

When a flood is imminent

Listen to designated radio/TV emergency alert systems for emergency instructions.

Secure/bring in outdoor furniture or other items that might float away and become a potential hazard.

Move valuable items and papers/documents to upper floors.

During a flood

Seek higher ground. Do not wait for instructions.

Be aware of flash flood areas such as canals, streams, drainage channels.

Be ready to evacuate.

If instructed, turn off utilities at main switches and unplug appliances - do not touch electrical equipment if wet.

If you must leave your home, do not walk through moving water. Six inches of moving water can knock you off your feet. Use a stick to test depth.

Do not try to drive over a flooded road. If your car stalls, abandon it immediately and seek an alternate route.
