Would it need to be backstopped to prevent rolling downhill?** A: It definitely rolls and would require backstop. I'd go for two 6 ft length pieces instead. 12 ft is too hard to move around with it filled. **Q: I need at least 36 feet of barrier, what would you recommend (4 inches in height). Also, can you link several units together to create a effective barrier? Thanks.** A: Best bet would be to go with a 24 foot and a 12 foot HydraBarrier Standard (4" high when filled). These two barriers can be connected using a HydraBarrier link which connects two HydraBarrier's. **Q: does it work with Saltwater?** A: Yes, it’s durable enough to handle just about any type of water. **Q: Will this work on top of dirt, I see all these pictures and it’s against concrete or blocks.** A: I used it on dirt and it worked fine. I didn't need it to be 100% leakproof though - I was using it to divert water, not stop it completely. Worked great. Buy the filler hose attachment. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked great! Very glad we had them for a recent hurricane *by on Reviewed in the United States October 28, 2024* We purchased these to protect from excessive blowing rain enter under our garage doors. They worked extremely well! During a normal rain storm we have water come in under the garage doors due to the winds. Purchased these to hopefully minimize rain from being blown under the garage doors. We were very impressed with them. Very, very little rain seeped in. In fact, only had to use a paper towel to wife it up. The only thing I’d recommend, depending the length of your water tube, is if driveway slopes a little away from the garage door you’ll need to place something in front of the tub so it doesn’t roll away. I only used one driveway paver for each 8ft section and each stay in place during the hurricane. They were easy to empty, dry out and store for future use ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Product *by on Reviewed in the United States August 5, 2024* I bought 2 of the 12ft barriers. 1 for my double doors off of my pool deck. My deck pitches too much towards my house and I always worried about water entering my home. The other I ended up using for my side garage door. I just folded it over on itself to create more of a 6ft barrier and it once again worked like a charm. I have used sandbags for years. They are a pain to fill, a pain to load and unload and a mess once they have been through a storm. These are quick and easy to fill and to empty. Highly recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to Use, Seems to Provide a Good Seal. *by on Reviewed in the United States August 22, 2025* Happily, I cannot give the product five stars because the flood I was planning to prevent in my basement never happened, so I don't know how secure the seal would have been! A hurricane was due here at my coastal home in two days, with warnings of a three-foot storm surge that could have sent water into my walk-out basement. The bay behind my house is brackish, so none of the so-called water activated dams would have worked. Also, of all the water-filled products, this is the only one that promised to be at my home before the storm hit. I bought three to stack in front of the walk-out door. They filled very easily with a garden hose (one quibble: the nozzle thread on the Hydrabarrier is identical to the one at the hose bib end, so it's impossible to screw the hose securely onto the product. I had to jam the end of the hose into the barrier itself. Some kind of adaptor would be helpful). The barrier sure looked secure; the water-filled tube seemed to fill in the gaps and contours of the doorway. It may not have utterly prevented any water from getting into the basement, but neither do actual sand bags. I've just drained them, a process that took less than a minute or two for each barrier. There does not seem to be a way to get every bit of water out (the nozzle apparently cannot be at the end of the tube, in order to ensure a good seal). But I'm leaving them out in the post-storm sun with the caps off, hoping evaporation will do the job. Pleased with the purchase and hoping never to use it again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Best Sandbag Alternative - Hydrabarrier Standard 4 Inch Height - Water Diversion Tubes - Lightweight, Re-usable, and Eco-Friendly.
