Gutters and options for their designs

gutters and options for their designs.Short list describing

To date, there are only three types of drainage construction.Here they are.

  1. external drain.It is collected on the basis of only pipes which are on the outside wall of the house.For the collection of waste water using a special gutter and pipe transporting water from the roof to the foundation.This drain is simple to install, but should necessarily match the style of the facade, or design simply spoil the exterior of the house.
  2. internal drain.The design includes all the above elements, but the sink is located outside the outer surface of the facade of the house.Waste pipe can be placed even in the wall that does not affect the appearance of the exterior of the house.Plus, this drain will not freeze in the cold season.The process of mounting a complex, but justified.

Combined drain.It unites above embodiments into one, in view of their better qualities.In such a system mount downpipes - outer and installation of vertical conduits - internal.Such a gutter best protection against frost, clever design and a simplified assembly.

Types downpipes, their properties and description

Here again are the only three species.Consider in greater detail.

Metal pipes

Metal gutters.There are steel and copper.They have a lot of weight per meter, high level of noise produced by the water beating on the surface of the drainpipe.Galvanizing pipes weigh much less, but their roars like a steel drum, unlike copper, the most low-noise pipes.Besides these materials, aluminum is also used, which overcomes almost all of the above disadvantages.It is lightweight and not so noisy, it does not corrode and does not have more value.However, despite its advantages, copper, aluminum and galvanizing material have high thermal conductivity, and hence be prepared to fight with the ice caps.

Gutters and options for their designs

Metal gutters and pipes are fixed to the bearing supports, using the brackets that are fixed to the edge of the roof or on the front board roofing system.They connect to the socket or sleeve.Strengthen joints, metal screws, leaving a small gap on the linear deformation of the case.

Plastic pipes

Plastic gutters.Cheap and practical solution.They are not afraid of corrosion and linear deformation, their low weight and noisy process works.It is the main competitor of the metal gutter, because in addition to its advantages, the plastic has an attractive appearance due to different colors.Mounting on the glued connection brackets same system as that of the metal pipe.Due to the factory method of manufacturing the assembly process becomes incredibly easy.

Combined drains

Combined sewers.These include galvanized pipes and fittings with polymer coating - plastisol.This plastic resin coating on both sides galvanized core.They withstand temperatures from -50 to +120 degrees, are not subject to deformation, durable and reliable due to the steel core.One of the best designs for drainage.

Gutters and options for their designs

As you can understand, combined sewers, soon, displace their competitors.They have the best performance and the most features, so the installation of combined drainpipes will be the most best solution for the home.
