FAQs
What is the purpose of the 92.5-degree angle?
The 92.5-degree angle encourages a slight fall, enabling rainwater to run away rather than sitting in the pipe.

How do I connect the bend to the downpipe?
Use appropriate connectors and sealant designed for downpipe systems to create a watertight seal. Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.
What should I do if the bend gets blocked?
Remove any debris or obstructions from the bend and downpipe to restore proper water flow.
How often should I inspect the bend?
It is recommended to inspect the bend at least twice a year, preferably during spring and autumn.
