Fitting & Usage

How to fit the FloPlast 68mm Round Downpipe

The following is offered as a simple overview of fitting FloPlast gutter to a standard domestic fascia. For detailed advice, please refer to the step-by-step or detailed fitting instructions.

Plan the installation with gutter system and components based on the design and flowrate of your roof.
Position running outlet directly over the drain, and fit no more than 50mm below the level of the roof tiles.
Fit a bracket 100mm short of opposite end from outlet, and tie a plumb line to it, with the string from the top face of the bottom, where the gutter rests.
Stretch the plumb line and tie to the outlet, with the string on top face where the gutter rests.
Check that there is a fall towards the outlet of 1:350 to encourage efficient drainage.
Measure, mark and fix brackets along the fascia, using the plumb line for vertical position.

Maximum spacing of 1m for Half Round and Square Line, and 800mm for Niagara ogee.
Maximum spacing of 400mm in areas of heavy snowfall.
Fit no further than 150mm from any joints, such as unions, corners and stopends.
Use 25mm x 5mm roundhead brass or zinc screws to secure brackets.

Fit gutter lengths, starting from the outlet, then adding unions and other parts as you go.

Ensure gutter overlaps joints to the insertion marks stamped on gutter parts.
Fit parts to gutter ends before screwing part to fascia.
Fit gutter lengths back to front by tilting the back edge under the back clip, and snap in at the front.
Use of a lubricant, such as silicone grease, on gasket seals can ease fitting and improve performance.
