PURE Flood Solutions®

Flood coverage for the unexpected

Three customizable levels of flood insurance coverage

PRIMARY FLOOD COVERAGE
Every solution begins with primary flood insurance that PURE offers through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This includes $250,000 in coverage for your home’s main structure and up to $100,000 for contents.1

BROADENED FLOOD COVERAGE
For greater protection from flood damage, you can add one of our broadening endorsements which expands coverage to include the features listed below:

  • PURE Flood Extension® is available in high-risk areas and maintains the limits provided by primary flood.
  • PURE Flood Advantage® is available in low-risk areas. It increases limits by an additional $650,000 of coverage for your home, contents and other structures, for a total of $1 million of protection.

CLAIM SCENARIO

Severe flood damage, seamless flood coverage

In July of 2016, heavy rain fell near Minneapolis causing the area’s worst flash flood event in years. The storm caused extensive wind damage to a PURE member’s roof and left more than two feet of standing water throughout the first floor of their home, so a PURE Member Advocate® arranged for temporary housing right away.

The flood damage far exceeded the NFIP’s primary flood coverage limits, but with PURE Flood Extension and our excess flood endorsement, all of it was covered. Our Homeowners policy also covered the damage to the roof.

The Member Advocate located and coordinated with vendors for all the repairs, found and purchased replacements for damaged belongings and kept the member informed throughout the entire process.
