No matter where you live, you need to be vigilant about your basements and homes. When floods occur, all of the trunks, photos, belongings, etc. in the basement are in danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out a few tips to prevent basement flooding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kampa.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/bodrum-havalandirmasi-nasil-olmali.png\" alt=\"Prevent Basement Flooding\" class=\"wp-image-803\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bodrum-selini-onleme-giderlerinizi-temizleyin\">Prevent Basement Flooding Clean Your Drains.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first and most important way to prevent flooding is to make sure drains are clear. When drains are blocked, the water flow stops and floods can occur due to blockages. Take necessary precautions in case sewers overflow into the basement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"oluklari-temizleyin\">Clean the Gutters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I can hear you saying, &#8220;What&#8217;s the big deal? However, in sudden rains, leaves, mud, etc. dirt can clog your gutters and cause flooding. The overflowing water must seep somewhere, and it is generally seen that it is directed towards the basements on the lower floors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"yagmur-sularini-yonlendirin\">Divert Rainwater.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When cleaning the gutters, we recommend that you also check for damage. Damaged gutters may leak water through holes or broken areas and you may have difficulty directing rainwater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The landing of the gutters is another important consideration. If the downspout does not lead to a sewer or there is no drainage system, there will be puddles and flooding.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"758\" height=\"358\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kampa.com.tr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/02\/prevent-basement-flooding-2.jpg\" alt=\"5 Ways to Prevent Basement Flooding\" class=\"wp-image-53003\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.kampa.com.tr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/02\/prevent-basement-flooding-2.jpg 758w, https:\/\/blog.kampa.com.tr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/02\/prevent-basement-flooding-2-300x142.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 758px) 100vw, 758px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"drenaj-pompasi-kullanin\">Use a Drainage Pump.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The easiest way to keep your basement clean and dry during the rainy season is to use a<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kampa.com.tr\/en\/when-is-a-drainage-pump-used\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> drainage pump.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When there is damage to drains and gutters, the flooding rate of basements increases by 75%. Drainage pumps will be first aid in case of a sudden situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drainage pumps, as the name suggests, are pumps used for the discharge of unwanted water. They allow you to pump the water out.

Therefore, the drainage pump may not work. Always use a backup generator for the drainage pump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially in detached houses, vineyard houses, zero-entry houses, floods are seen more frequently.
