Product Information

Full details

This guide is for homeowners and builders needing to manage rainwater drainage around bay windows. The FloPlast 135 Degree Gutter Angle (also known as a 45-degree angle) provides a symmetrical solution for internal and external corners, ensuring efficient water flow. A key benefit is its deep profile, accommodating high volumes of rainwater, which minimizes the need for multiple downpipes. However, it requires proper bracket support to prevent sagging under load.

FAQs

What is the primary use for a 135-degree gutter angle?

A 135-degree gutter angle is typically used to navigate corners around bay windows or other architectural features where a standard 90-degree angle is not suitable.

Why is support crucial for this gutter angle?

The angle fitting can experience significant weight from accumulated water or snow. Support brackets placed within 150mm on both sides prevent the fitting from sagging or detaching.

Can this fitting be used for both inside and outside corners?

Yes, the FloPlast 135-degree angle features a symmetrical design, meaning it can be used for both internal and external corners.

What size guttering is this angle compatible with?

This specific variant is designed for 115mm x 75mm guttering systems.

How do I ensure a watertight seal?

Ensure the gutter ends are clean and properly inserted into the angle fitting. Use the recommended solvent cement for FloPlast systems, applying it evenly to both surfaces before joining.

What maintenance is required?

Regular checks for debris and blockages are essential. Clean the gutters periodically with water and a soft brush to maintain optimal flow.

Troubleshooting

Gutter angle is sagging or appears unsupported.

Install additional fascia brackets within 150mm of the angle on both sides. Ensure existing brackets are securely fastened.

Water is leaking from the joint.

Check the connection and ensure it is fully inserted. Reapply solvent cement if necessary, following manufacturer instructions. Inspect for any cracks or damage to the fitting or connecting gutter sections.

Debris is accumulating in the angle.

Regularly clean the gutter system. Consider installing gutter guards to prevent large debris from entering.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficiently handles high rainwater volumes.
  • Universal fitting for both internal and external corners.
  • Reduces the number of downpipes required.
  • Designed for easy integration with other FloPlast guttering components.
  • Durable construction for long-term use.

Cons

  • Requires specific fascia bracket support within 150mm of the angle on both sides to prevent sagging.
  • The 135-degree angle is specific and may not suit all corner configurations.
  • Color options may be limited (e.g., only available in brown in this variant).

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the guttering runs are correctly aligned to meet the angle.
  2. Apply appropriate solvent cement (if required by FloPlast's system) to the connecting ends of the guttering and the angle fitting.
  3. Push the gutter sections firmly into the angle fitting, ensuring a snug connection.
  4. Crucially, install a fascia bracket within 150mm of the angle on *both* sides to provide adequate support. This prevents sagging, especially when the gutter is full of water or snow.

Compatibility:

  • Designed to integrate with FloPlast's 115mm guttering system.
  • Verify compatibility with existing guttering if not using a complete FloPlast system.

Care:

  • Regularly inspect the gutter angle and surrounding system for debris.
  • Clean out leaves, twigs, and other blockages to maintain optimal water flow.
  • Use a soft brush and water for cleaning. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.
