Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the fascia boards are sound and ready to accept brackets.
- Install the fascia brackets at appropriate intervals, following the recommended fall (1 in 600 to 1 in 350). Use the provided screws for secure attachment.
- Connect the gutter lengths to the brackets. If joining lengths, ensure a secure fit.
- Attach the stopends to the open ends of the gutter run.
- Install the outlet where the gutter will connect to the downpipe system.
- Fit the balloon outlet leaf guard into the outlet to prevent debris from entering the downpipe.
- Remove the protective film wrapping from all steel components before or immediately after installation.
Compatibility:
This kit is designed as a complete system. While it is intended to work with standard downpipe systems, verify connection compatibility with your chosen downpipe diameter and type. It is suitable for residential and light commercial buildings.
Care:
- Periodically inspect the gutters for blockages, especially after heavy leaf fall.
- Clean out debris from the gutters and leaf guard as needed.
- Use a soft brush or cloth for cleaning. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the finish.
- Check fixings periodically to ensure brackets remain secure.
