Product Information

Full details

Designed for industrial building managers and professional contractors, the FloPlast 110mm Industrial/XtraFlo Downpipe Kit provides a robust, high-capacity solution for managing heavy rainwater runoff in large-scale properties. The kit features a dedicated hopper head for streamlined water collection and an integrated access pipe for simplified maintenance, ensuring long-term reliability. While the heavy-duty design is ideal for large roof surfaces, users should note that the 110mm diameter and industrial styling are specifically optimized for commercial applications rather than standard residential guttering.

FAQs

Can I use this with standard 65mm domestic guttering?

No, this kit is specifically designed for 110mm industrial systems and will not fit standard residential pipes without specialized adapters.

Do I need glue to assemble the pipes?

No, the system uses push-fit ring seal connections, which allow for thermal expansion and contraction, meaning glue is not required.

How often should I clean the access pipe?

It is recommended to check and clear the access pipe at least once every six months, or more frequently if the building is located near trees.

Can the pipe be painted?

While the PVC is durable in black, it can be painted with a suitable exterior-grade PVC primer and paint if a different color is required.

Is the hopper head compatible with multiple downpipes?

The hopper is designed as a collection funnel and can accommodate water from multiple sources, such as an overflow pipe and a main gutter outlet simultaneously.

Troubleshooting

Joints leaking during heavy rainfall

Check that the ring seal is properly seated inside the socket and ensure the pipe was chamfered correctly before insertion.

Water overflowing from the hopper

Verify that the downpipe below the hopper is not blocked by debris; remove the access pipe cap to clear any obstructions.

Pipe clips coming loose from the wall

Ensure that the wall fixings are appropriate for the wall substrate (e.g., masonry vs. metal cladding) and that the clips are evenly spaced to distribute weight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Removable access cap allows for easy, mess-free debris clearing
  • Push-fit connections save time during installation
  • Heavy-duty capacity suitable for large roof areas

  • Not compatible with smaller residential 65mm or 76mm gutter systems
  • Requires significant wall space due to the 110mm diameter
  • Industrial aesthetic may not suit all building types

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This kit is specifically designed to be compatible with the FloPlast 170mm XtraFlo industrial gutter system. To install, ensure your mounting surface is structurally sound to support the weight of the downpipe, especially when full of water. Use the provided pipe clips at consistent intervals to maintain vertical alignment and prevent bowing.

  1. Mount the hopper head securely at the gutter level.
  2. Measure and cut the 3m pipes as required for your building height.
  3. Install the access pipe section at a convenient height above ground level.
  4. Use the push-fit couplings to join pipe segments, ensuring the ring seals are correctly seated.

Regular care involves performing a visual inspection of the hopper twice a year and unscrewing the access cap to clear any accumulated silt or foliage.
