Product Information

Full details

The FloPlast Deepflow/ Hi-Cap Downpipe Shoe is an essential finishing component for homeowners and contractors seeking to manage rainwater drainage effectively at the base of an 80mm downpipe system. Engineered for systems that discharge onto the ground rather than into a sealed drainage pipe, it directs water away from building foundations to prevent structural damage. While it provides a simple and reliable outlet for runoff, users should note that it is specifically designed for 80mm systems and is not compatible with standard domestic 65mm square or round downpipes.

FAQs

Does this shoe include a mounting bracket?

No, this is a terminal fitting for the bottom of the pipe and is held in place by the downpipe connection.

Can I paint this shoe?

While the finish is color-fast, you can use specialized plastic paint if you wish to change the color, though it is not recommended.

Is this suitable for 68mm downpipes?

No, this is exclusively for 80mm systems.

Do I need special tools to install this?

No, the push-fit design allows for installation without tools.

How do I secure it in a high-traffic area?

You can use silicone sealant or a solvent weld to provide a more permanent bond while still allowing for removal during maintenance.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels loose on the downpipe

Ensure the pipe has been fully pushed home; if it continues to slip, apply a small amount of silicone sealant to the connection point.

Water splashing back onto the wall

Ensure the shoe is rotated so the angled opening is pointing directly away from the structure.

Cannot fit the shoe onto the pipe

Check that you are using an 80mm downpipe; this component will not fit standard 65mm or 68mm domestic systems.

Cons

  • Compatible only with 80mm systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the 80mm Downpipe Shoe is designed to be straightforward. Ensure the 80mm downpipe end is clean and free of debris. Simply slide the shoe onto the end of the downpipe until it sits flush.

Compatibility

  • Only fits 80mm round downpipes from the FloPlast range.
  • Not compatible with 65mm or 68mm systems.

Maintenance

  • Periodically remove the shoe to clear any accumulated leaf litter or debris from the base of the pipe.
  • Wipe down with soapy water to maintain the deep black finish.
