Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a professional installation, start by measuring your required vertical run and cutting the pipe to size if necessary using a fine-toothed saw. Always use matching 65mm square-profile fittings, such as offset bends, shoes, and wall brackets from the Polypipe range to guarantee a watertight fit.
Secure the pipe using clips spaced at maximum intervals of 1.8 metres to prevent sagging. Maintenance is straightforward; simply clear the gutters of debris annually to prevent blockages from reaching the downpipe. If the surface becomes dusty or soiled, a simple wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent will restore the white finish, as the material is inherently resistant to rot and rust.
