Product Description
Cast Iron Effect Hopper
The cast iron effect hopper is a rainwater drainage component that collects water from gutter systems and directs it into vertical downpipes. With a classic cast iron look combined with the performance benefits of uPVC, this hopper suits period homes, conservation projects and any installation where an authentic traditional style is desired.
Manufactured from high quality uPVC with an attractive cast iron effect surface, this hopper avoids the corrosion, weight and ongoing maintenance associated with metal alternatives. It provides reliable performance while enhancing the overall appearance of external rainwater systems.

Performance & Durability
Made from robust uPVC, this hopper offers exceptional resistance to weathering, corrosion and everyday wear. Unlike traditional cast iron, it will not rust or deteriorate over time and requires minimal ongoing maintenance once installed.
The wide inlet profile is designed to capture water efficiently from gutter runs, helping to maintain effective rainwater flow into the downpipe and reduce the risk of overflow during heavy rainfall.
Installation
The rainwater hopper should be positioned between the incoming gutter and the downpipe outlet, ensuring each connection is securely seated. Use suitable screws or fixings for the wall surface and make allowances for any movement caused by temperature changes in external environments.
