Performance & Durability

Manufactured from high quality uPVC, this downpipe shoe delivers excellent resistance to weathering and everyday wear. Unlike metal alternatives that may rust or deteriorate over time, uPVC remains stable and low maintenance once installed correctly.

The design ensures rainwater is guided cleanly from the downpipe outlet into the drainage point, helping maintain effective flow and reduce the risk of puddling or splashing at the base.

Installation

Install the downpipe shoe directly to the base of the 68mm downpipe, ensuring it seats securely and aligns with the chosen drainage outlet. Use compatible fixings where appropriate and follow good practice to allow for any thermal movement.
