52 rainwater & greywater products


are required to make gutter joints, as with most traditional systems.


Ease of installation


To ensure each rainwater system can be designed to meet every client’s demands, there are an expansive choice of options and gutter profiles available for domestic builds and refurbishments to suit most requirements. From the domestic style of gutter to high capacity systems for larger scale commercial projects, plastic rainwater systems are also compatible with existing cast iron systems and have been carefully designed to replicate original features, dimensions and detailing. Once installed, the system is low maintenance


as, unlike cast iron, it is not vulnerable to rusting or corrosion and does not require regular sanding, priming or repainting to protect it from the elements.


A range of options


There are three styles of domestic gutters (106 mm Profiled Ogee, 112 mm Half Round and, for larger or steeper roofs, a 115 mm Deep Profile) which utilise 68 mm round or 65 mm square downpipes. For larger scale projects there is a high capacity 160mm roundstyle gutter with 105 mm round and 4” x 3” rectangular downpipe choice. Once installed, the long term performance of


the system can be protected relatively easily as, unlike cast iron, the Cascade system is UV stabilised and not vulnerable to rusting or corrosion. With a 10 year colour guarantee, it also doesn’t require regular sanding, priming or repainting to protect it from the elements.


Proven service


Leading suppliers and manufacturers do not just design systems to deliver optimum durability and safety standards – they provide superior technical support, detailed installation instructions and maintenance guidelines to ensure rainwater sys- tems perform exactly as promised. Renowned for offering proven quality, these rainwater systems have been designed to facilitate fast, efficient, economical installation and exceptional reliabil- ity which provide the builder, installer and the end user with satisfaction, peace of mind and a full comprehensive guarantee. When a traditional aesthetic is a prerequisite,


the right drainage system can be the difference between design success and failure. As budgets are increasingly stretched and tight deadlines dic- tate product specification, housebuilders must be aware of every product’s cost – in both materials and labour. With a price tag in line with modern construction, and an appearance that blends the past with the present, a plastic rainwater system fits the bill.
