Whilst studying at London University in
1972, William Saint worked at a small
chain of retail shops specialising in white
goods such as dishwashers and washing
machines. Saint saw the extensive
damage that these products could cause
by flooding and leaking if broken. He
invented the first Floodcheck product,
the MANUAL model as a solution for
protecting properties by preventing
flooding from these machines.
In 1998, working with the latest microprocessor electronics, William Saint
designed a more sophisticated product
and the AUTO model was invented.
Saint entered the Auto Model in the
Essex County Council‚ Innovation
Competition and won the Innovation
Award. The product was later granted
International Trademarks and Patents. It
was tested by the UK water standards to
WRAS Requirements and so Floodcheck
was formed.
Floodchec k continues its research and
developments in products to monitor,
save water and to protect properties. The
“interceptor” product was launched in
2011 after 5 years of development. It
was awarded the coveted NATIONAL
HOMEBUILDING and Renovation
Award for Innovation and Excellence.
