Problem
Possible Cause(s)
Solution
Barrier is not
secure at maximum
extension
1. Reveal width is
>1100mm
2. Reveals are not
smooth/solid/parallel
1. The doorway is not suitable for a single
barrier flood protection. Consider purchasing
an extension system
2. Repair imperfections on the surface of the
reveals
Interferance from
door closing
1. Reveal depth is
<75mm / 3in
2. Barrier is positioned
too close to the closed
door
3. Protruding door
furniture is causing
interferance
1. The reveals are not suitable for a Dam Easy
flood barrier protection.
2. Reposition the barrier within the reveals
further from the door, and repeat barrier
installation
3. Reposition the barrier within the reveals
further from the door or remove the door
furniture and repeat barrier installation
Barrier rises when
seal is inflated
The barrier is not
sufficiently secured in
the doorway
Deflate the seal and repeat the installation,
pressing down on the lifting handles while
extending the side panels
Seal does not inflate
OR the air pressure
is not maintained
at 2bar
1. The connection to the
pump mechanism is
loose & leaking air
2. The seal is punctured
Cannot replace the
ratchet handle into
the starting position
Cannot move the
direction switch on
the ratchet handle
Position of the handle is
preventing the toggle on
the direction switch
1. Release the seal from the quick release
valve within the Seal Replacement Panel
and reconnect with care
2. If there is no flood water in contact with
the barrier, remove the barrier and replace
the seal. If flood water is present, do not
remove the barrier
The direction switch is
toggled in the wrong
direction to allow the
handle to move in the
desired direction
Manipulate the direction switch and ratchet
handle simulataneously
Jack the ratchet handle and simultaneously
manipulate the direction switch
Pump handle is stiff
Needs lubrication
Apply general use lubricant
