GUTTERS AND DOWNPIPES
We can supply a range of gutters and downpipes for rainwater systems. The right choice will depend on a number of factors such as:
- the amount of rainfall expected
- the size of the roof
- gutter size and capacity
- the gutter fall and outlets
- the placement, amount, and size of downpipes
- overflow
Roof drainage systems must be designed to comply with the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and must refer to Australian Standards AS/NZS3500.3 (2003) and AS/NZS3500.5 (2000).
COMMON GUTTER PROFILES
Quad gutter is the most popular choice of guttering. As it is higher at the front, once installed it conceals the line of the roof which makes for a neat appearance. This type of guttering can be used with steel roofs or tiles, and an option for slotting to increase overflow capacity is available.
Ogee Gutter
Curved front gutter which is commonly used for heritage/period style homes. This style is suitable for metal or tiled roofs, and is available in Colorbond® and Zincalume®.
Trimline gutter is a slim, square gutter with concealed fixing and a higher front profile, giving it a sleek, minimal appearance. Can be purchased with optional slotting for improved overflow capacity. Suitable for steel and tiled roofs.
Sheerline has a large water capacity, making it a good choice for roofing with low pitch. Concealed fixing gives sleek, minimal appearance. Optional slotting for improved overflow capacity. Capping is available for trimming roof edges.
Half round guttering has a curved profile, a large water carrying capacity and is suitable for large roofs and high rainfall areas. The curved profile helps prevent dirt and water build up in the gutter.
Novaline fascia is a fascia system that integrates with Quad, Ogee, and Trimline gutters.
