FloPlast Round Downpipe - 68mm x 2.5M Grey

You'll need a saw (for cutting, if necessary), a measuring tape, and possibly a ladder for access. Downpipe clips and a screwdriver may also be required.

No, do not use silicone or solvent weld on the push-fit joints. These joints are designed for easy assembly and disassembly.

Measure from the gutter outlet to the ground (or to the top of the drainage system if it is not ground level), and subtract any overlap required for the joints.

The outside diameter of the pipe is 68mm.

Leaves, twigs, and other debris that accumulates in the gutters and downpipes are the most common causes of blockages.

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

FloPlast products are available at most major DIY stores.

Ensure the push-fit joints are securely connected. Check for any obstructions preventing a tight seal. Disassemble, clean, and reassemble if necessary.

Check for blockages, such as leaves or debris, and clear them. Ensure the downpipe is correctly aligned and there are no kinks.

Check that the clips are correctly installed and properly spaced. Replace any damaged clips and ensure they are securely fastened to the wall.
