What consist drainage systems ?

Gutters - designer for adults

Fundamental Principle of any inlets - trough, but in addition it drains design includes a lot of very different parts, and it is important to know the purpose of each of them.We begin with a simple, namely - with what is necessary for assembly of the chute, the length of which can be 2, 3, 4 or 6 meters.To build the structure of a number of trays necessary connectors drainage system, the board of which are equipped with the top of the jaws, which are fixed in the gutter edge.

In order not to cut the gutter under the gusset (the more so that the extra joints we do not need), the elements used for the inner and outer corner.Another important detail - the expansion element, it is necessary, where the trough is longer than 18 meters without established in this segment of the drain funnel.It is used instead of the standard connection, and on either side of the expander set brackets under the gutter system. If you do not want to close the trays along the perimeter of the house, you definitely need a plug that can be installed on either end gutter.

drainage system for draining rain

Now consider device drainage system.Rain or melting snow to flow down the chute with roof slopes and on inclined trays rush to the funnel, where the pipes are merged into the surface drainage.And it is useful to know how these drain trays are connected with pipes.Used for this purpose, a kind of coupler referred to above - a funnel, and there may be several variants. addition to the regular output funnel neck, widely used expansion, with the functions of the respective connecting element .Sometimes it is necessary sloping funnel neck which is angled.

If you do not know exactly what angle is the slope of the pipe at the top, take the tilt funnel neck position is changed randomly.

To funnel nozzle is attached below a normal straight pipe with the extension or knee gutter, providing turn 45, 60 or 75 degrees.Quite interesting that option, as the transition element of the two parts, each of which can be bent to the desired angle.In the middle of the drain can be installed branching (tee).The bottom drainage system goes to normal or sink, in this case is set down smoothly curving tip with a hole or reservoir, which is placed under the nozzle diameter point header.

drainage device rests on the details

And this is true.Fasteners, brackets, clamps - all these seemingly small details play a big role in shaping the system of rainwater.So, for example, the drainage device is not possible without the brackets that support the gutters around the perimeter of the building.These fasteners are of several types: steel extra-long (37 cm) long (31.5 cm), short (19 cm) and ultrashort (3.9 cm), as well as plastic, which sometimes requires a special wedge in case of installation on a sloping eaves troughs.

Clamps are different as steel and plastic.The first is divided into two types - with legs (fixing screws) and with the pin, the second screw fastened from the inside, and after the installation of the pipe closes a removable segment.Also, the pipe retaining ring fits over the top clamp to fix the weakening prevent slide down the drain.To avoid clogging of drains to drain funnels set lattice, which can be easily removed and cleaned, if necessary.
