Polypipe Round Downpipe - 68mm - 2.5m - Grey

The downpipe is constructed from durable PVCu (Polyvinyl Chloride).

Each section of this downpipe is 2.5 meters in length.

The diameter of this round downpipe is 68mm.

While PVCu can be painted, it's recommended to use paints specifically designed for plastics to avoid cracking or peeling. The grey finish is intended to be durable on its own.

Multiple sections are connected using Polypipe socket connectors, ensuring a watertight seal.

It is suitable for light commercial installations, but for larger commercial buildings with higher water volumes, a larger diameter or different system may be required.

Specific warranty information should be obtained from the retailer or Polypipe directly, as it can vary.

Ensure Polypipe connectors are securely fitted and sealed. If using solvent cement, ensure proper application and curing time. Check seals for wear and tear.

Verify that the downpipe diameter is sufficient for the roof area. Clean gutters and downpipes of debris. Ensure downpipes are not blocked and are correctly sloped.

This can be due to UV exposure. Clean with mild soap and water. For persistent discoloration, consider that PVCu can naturally age over time.

Ensure the wall substrate is sound. Use appropriate fixings for the wall type (e.g., masonry plugs for brickwork). Do not overtighten clips, which can damage the pipe.
