does hydrabarrier work on a 5% slope? Would it need to be backstopped to prevent rolling downhill?

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.

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.

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.

does it work with Saltwater?

Yes, it’s durable enough to handle just about any type of water.

Will this work on top of dirt, I see all these pictures and it’s against concrete or blocks.

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.
