Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your installation, ensure that your existing gutter system is the FloPlast XtraFlo 170mm industrial range to guarantee compatibility. During assembly, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the ring seals to ensure pipes slide into the fittings without binding. Use all 6 included pipe clips to ensure the 6-meter downpipe run is securely fixed against the wall to prevent vibrations during high winds. For care, simply check the access pipe after heavy storm seasons; if it becomes clogged, unscrew the cap to flush out debris. Avoid painting the PVC if possible, as it is finished in a durable, UV-stable white.
