LONDON, ON – July 21, 2015 WINMAR Franchise Corp. announces its national partership with INFLOTROLIX, an industry leading flood prevention solutions firm.

WINMAR continually endeavors to differentiate themselves within the Insurance & Commercial Services Industry in Canada in order to position themselves as the premier SOLUTIONS provider in Emergency & Disaster Recovery Services.

As water damage losses continue to escalate Canada wide, WINMAR has now joined forces in a partnership with INFLOTROLIX – A fully Canadian owned & operated flood prevention solutions firm on their state of the art, technologically advanced Bacwater Valve system called AQUA-PROTEC and its value added leak detection system called NOWA. Unlike the current bacwater valve solution, AQUA-PROTEC has the following features: Fully Automated balloon inflation & deflation, Self-maintaining control panel with battery backup, Built in alarm to alert homeowners including smart phone technology and Non-invasive installation.

AQUA-PROTEC – see how it works:

WINMAR is presenting this partnership as an example of wanting to do its best to serve the needs of the insurer and all property owners. Reducing claims costs associated with flooding whether from reoccurrence of sewer backups or water damage from internal plumbing and leaks, that, taken together, represent the greatest area of Insurer payouts to this date.

Many Municipalities across Canada currently offer flood protection & prevention “subsidy & rebate programs” when equipment such as bacwater valves are professionally installed. Along with these subsidies WINMAR has also stepped up to the plate to offer other assistance to residential and commercial clients both directly and in conjunction with Insurer programs we are starting to see such as sewer back-up discounts, lowering of deductibles and increased sub-limits, amongst others.

Interested in finding out more about this & how WINMAR, with INFLOTROLIX, can be a part of the solution in the fight to prevent water losses, please contact Sean Hobson, Vice President, National Programs WINMAR Franchise Corp. at seanhobson@winmar.ca or call 226-268-8580.
