Flood-Proof Peace of Mind: Why Intalio Estates is Engineered for Long-Term Safety
When you choose a home, you’re investing in your family’s future. But in a world of unpredictable weather, one question looms large: Is my home safe from flooding?
At Intalio Estates, the answer is a resounding Yes.
We understand that standard drainage isn’t enough. That’s why Intalio Estates is not just a master-planned community—it is built on a foundation of professional, state-of-the-art flood-control engineering. Weecomm has gone far beyond typical subdivision standards to create a community that is genuinely flood-resilient.
A Community Built With Real Engineering
Most subdivisions rely on simple concrete canals. Intalio Estates is different. Our developers invested in a FULL Hydrologic Design System, crafted by expert civil and hydrologic engineers. This comprehensive design ensures our community remains protected and safe, even during extreme weather conditions typical of Cagayan de Oro.
Here are the three core components that make Intalio Estates one of the safest communities for rainwater management:
1. The Massive Detention Pond: Our 7,600 cubic meter Reservoir
Think of this as a giant, internal water savings account for the community.
- Massive Capacity: Our pond can store a staggering 7,600 cubic meters of rainwater—the equivalent capacity of three Olympic-sized swimming pools.
- Controlled Release: During heavy rainfall, this reservoir temporarily holds the water, then slowly and safely releases it.
Why this matters to you: This engineered reservoir prevents sudden, overwhelming runoff, drastically reducing the chance of flooding inside the subdivision and ensuring water flows out in a controlled, safe manner.
2. Main Outfall: The Reinforced Concrete Box Culvert
The path for collected water to exit the community must be secure, official, and legally sound.
- Official Connection: Water is discharged through a massive 1.4m wide x 1.6m deep concrete box culvert.
- Government Approved: This culvert is directly tied into a DPWH-approved outfall and discharges cleanly into the Iponan River, the official government drainage pathway.
What this means for homeowners: Intalio Estates is NOT relying on makeshift or informal waterways. Our system is officially integrated into the government’s drainage network, ensuring water is safely and legally managed without negatively impacting surrounding communities.
3. Supplementary East Canals: Shielding the Community from Outside Water
We don’t just handle our own water; we protect ourselves from water flowing in from adjacent areas.
- External Defense: Two extra-large canals, each 450mm in diameter and positioned 350 meters apart, are built along our eastern boundary.
- Bypass System: Designed by our engineering consultants, these canals act as a shield, diverting and relieving stormwater flow coming from outside barangays.
Why this is important: These supplementary canals prevent external water from pooling near or entering Intalio’s boundaries, protecting both our residents and our neighbors during intense rainfall events.
\Your Investment is Protected
When you buy a home at Intalio Estates, you gain peace of mind:
- You have large-capacity rainwater storage—not just simple drains.
- You benefit from a slow, controlled, and safe water release system.
- Your community is shielded from outside runoff by supplementary canals.
- The entire system is designed using national engineering standards.
Bottom Line: Intalio Estates is engineered to remain safe, secure, and flood-resilient—even during extreme weather conditions. For families who demand true engineering integrity and put their safety first, Intalio Estates is the clear standout choice.
