Product Information

Full details

Designed for professionals and contractors managing large-scale drainage, the FloPlast 110mm Industrial/Xtraflo Downpipe Kit is ideal for commercial, agricultural, and industrial roof areas requiring high-capacity water management. This kit provides a complete, high-performance solution that uses a swan neck configuration to bridge the gap between fascia and wall, ensuring a clean finish. While the system is highly durable and easy to install via push-fit joints, users should note that it is specifically engineered for the 170mm XtraFlo gutter system and may require professional-grade mounting surfaces for optimal stability.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this kit compatible with standard domestic guttering?

No, this kit is specifically designed for the FloPlast XtraFlo 170mm industrial system and will not interface directly with smaller residential guttering.

Do I need glue for the joints?

No, this system uses push-fit ring seal connections which provide a secure, watertight fit without the need for solvent welding or glue.

Can the pipes be cut to size?

Yes, the 110mm downpipes can be cut using a fine-toothed saw, provided the edges are filed smooth afterward.

What is the primary function of the swan neck configuration?

The swan neck offsets the downpipe so it can follow the wall line after dropping from an overhanging gutter, ensuring the pipe remains flush against the structure.

How often should I clean the downpipe?

It depends on local foliage, but inspecting the pipe shoe and clearing debris twice a year—typically in autumn and spring—is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Joints are difficult to push together

Ensure the pipe end is cut square and deburred; applying a small amount of silicone lubricant to the ring seal can facilitate a smoother fit.

Leaking at connection point

Check that the ring seal is present and correctly seated. Ensure the pipe is inserted deep enough into the coupling to bypass the seal completely.

Pipe appears to bow between clips

Install additional pipe clips or reposition existing ones to ensure support at every 1-meter interval.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Complete all-in-one kit minimizes the need for individual part procurement
  • Push-fit ring seal design speeds up installation time significantly
  • Robust construction suitable for heavy-duty commercial applications
  • White finish is UV-stabilized to maintain aesthetic appearance over years
  • Specifically calibrated for high-volume drainage from the 170mm XtraFlo gutter system

Cons

  • Requires professional measuring to ensure the swan neck offset aligns correctly
  • Not intended for smaller residential guttering systems
  • Wall clips need to be mounted into solid, load-bearing surfaces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation begins by securing the pipe clips to the structure, ensuring they are perfectly plumb. Once the top and bottom bends are positioned to form the swan neck, the 110mm pipe sections can be inserted into the fittings using a gentle push-fit motion. Ensure that all ring seals are properly seated and free of debris to guarantee a watertight connection. For long-term care, periodic inspection of the pipe clips is recommended to ensure they remain tightly fastened to the building substrate. If the system experiences heavy leaf litter or debris, the pipe shoe at the bottom can be easily removed for flushing the system, though the design is inherently resistant to internal clogging due to its large diameter.
