just get a bypass valve. and unless you're hitting puddles 3 feet deep i wouldn't worry.

If you're that worried get a comptech ice box. Its pretty expensive but it works well and gives you peace of mind. The bypass valve is crap.

small puddles dont cause hydrolock. if you can submerge your bumper into a "small puddle", i wouldnt call it a puddle, i'd call that flooding...
