Troubleshooting

Union does not fit securely

Verify that you are using the correct 117mm x 75mm half-round guttering. Ensure the gutter ends are clean and not damaged. Re-apply PVCu solvent cement if necessary.

Leak detected at the joint

Check that the gutter sections are fully inserted into the union. If the leak persists, the solvent cement bond may be compromised; consider disassembling and re-applying cement, ensuring a thorough and even application.

Product appears to be the wrong size
