FAQs

What tools are needed for installation?

You may need a saw or a pipe cutter to cut the downpipe to the correct length. It's also helpful to have a measuring tape and a level to ensure correct alignment.

Can I use silicone sealant with this downpipe?

No, this downpipe uses push-fit joints, so silicone sealant should not be used. This is because there might be a requirement to take them apart for cleaning or unblocking at some point in the future.

How do I measure the correct downpipe length?

Measure the vertical distance from the gutter outlet to the drain inlet. Consider any bends or offsets that may be needed.

What should I do if the downpipe is too long?

Use a saw or a pipe cutter to trim the downpipe to the desired length. Make sure to cut cleanly to maintain a good connection.

How often should I clean the downpipe?

It is recommended to inspect and clean the downpipe at least twice a year, or more frequently if you live in an area with a lot of trees.

Is this downpipe suitable for all types of roofs?

Yes, this downpipe is suitable for any roof that has square or ogee gutters installed.

Troubleshooting

Downpipe is leaking at the joints.

Ensure that the downpipe sections are fully pushed together to create a secure seal. Check for any obstructions in the joints and clean as needed. If the problem persists, check the alignment.

Downpipe is blocked.

Remove the downpipe from the gutter and the drain. Clear any blockages with a plumbing snake or a garden hose. Reassemble the downpipe once cleared, ensuring secure connections.
