FAQs

What is the recommended spacing for the fascia brackets?

Deepflow fascia brackets should be spaced at a maximum of 1m apart. For areas with heavy snowfall, reduce the spacing to a maximum of 800mm or even as close as 400mm.

What type of screws should I use?

Use countersunk screws suitable for the material of your fascia board. The length should be sufficient to securely attach the brackets.

Are these brackets compatible with all types of guttering?

No, these brackets are specifically designed for FloPlast High Capacity guttering systems.

How do I clean the guttering and brackets?

Remove any debris, such as leaves and twigs, from the gutters. You can use a brush or a hose to clean both the guttering and the brackets.

What is the purpose of the clips?

The clips on the brackets are designed to securely hold the guttering in place. The back edge of the guttering slides under the rear clip, and the front edge is clipped into place, providing stability.

Can I install these brackets myself?

Yes, the installation process is straightforward. However, if you are unsure about any aspect of the installation, it is recommended to consult a professional.

What is the warranty on these brackets?

Warranty information is not available in the provided product information. Please refer to the product packaging or contact the manufacturer for details.

Troubleshooting

Guttering is sagging or detaching.

Check the spacing of the brackets. Ensure they are installed at the recommended intervals (maximum 1m, or less in areas with heavy snowfall). Tighten or replace any loose or damaged brackets.

Water is overflowing from the gutters.

Inspect the guttering and downspouts for blockages (leaves, debris). Clean them out as needed. Ensure that the guttering is correctly aligned and angled to direct water flow towards the downspouts.

Bracket is not securely attached to the fascia board.

Ensure the screws are the correct type and length for your fascia board material. Tighten the screws or replace them if they are stripped.
