Product Information

Full details

The Lindab Self Cleaning Leaf Trap is designed for homeowners and contractors utilizing the Lindab Rainline Steel Rainwater system who need a low-maintenance solution to prevent gutter downpipe blockages. Its primary benefit is a specialized sloped grid that automatically ejects debris while channeling rainwater into your drainage pipes, though it requires precise installation into a 100mm system to function effectively. This filter minimizes the need for manual gutter cleaning by proactively managing leaf and debris accumulation.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Will this fit a standard plastic 100mm downpipe?

This unit is designed specifically for the Lindab steel guttering system and may not provide a secure fit for plastic downpipes.

How often should I check the trap?

While it is self-cleaning, an inspection once per season is recommended to ensure no large debris is preventing the ejector from working.

Is this model available in other colors?

This specific guide covers the black finish, which is designed to match the standard Lindab black steel collection.

Can it be installed on an existing downpipe?

Yes, provided the existing pipe is a 100mm diameter Lindab steel downpipe, it can be retrofitted into the run.

Does the leaf trap require tools for installation?

Installation is straightforward, but you may need standard tools to cut and secure your steel downpipe sections.

Troubleshooting

Debris failing to eject from the trap

Check if the unit is installed at the correct angle or if large debris is obstructing the exit port; clear by hand if necessary.

Water leaking from the connection point

Verify that the leaf trap is fully seated within the downpipe and that the connections are tight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficient self-clearing mechanism prevents clogs
  • High-quality steel construction ensures long-term durability
  • Seamless integration with Lindab steel gutter systems
  • Reduces the risk of water damage caused by overflowing gutters

Cons

  • Compatible only with 100mm downpipes
  • Requires proper initial alignment to ensure debris ejection
  • Limited to Lindab Rainline or equivalent steel gutter setups

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your downpipe is clear before inserting the unit into the 100mm section of your existing Lindab steel pipework. The unit should be positioned at a reachable height to allow for occasional inspection. While the device is self-cleaning, it is recommended to inspect the exterior of the unit once per season to ensure the ejection point remains free of heavy obstructions like thick branches or stuck twigs. When cleaning the system, a simple rinse with a garden hose is typically sufficient to maintain optimal flow.
