Deepflow Black Running Outlet
Running outlets are the fittings that are used to connect the guttering into the downpipes. The gutter is clipped in on either side of the outlet, and the bottom part of the fitting is a moulded spigot that fits inside the downpipe. The connection to the downpipe is a push fit one – no adhesive is required. The position of the running outlet is generally governed by the position of existing drainage connections. However if you are designing a new system it is worth remembering that the capacity of the any gutter system is increased when outlets are positioned centrally rather than at one end of the run. To prevent rainwater pipes from filling up with leaves and moss and causing blockages, you should consider fitting a leaf guard inside the outlet. This simple fitting that resembles a small bird cage sits in the neck of the running outlet and catches debris that would otherwise be swept into the downpipe and hence the drainage system. It is invisible from ground level.

How far apart should fascia brackets be fixed?
The spacings for each system are as follows:
- Half Round, Square, Deepflow and Mini Gutters - Brackets at 1M centres
- Ogee Gutters - Brackets at 800mm centres
- Superdeep Industrial Gutters - Brackets at 600mm centres
Brackets should be fitted using two 5mm x 25mm screws (1 x 10). Screws can be either round head or countersunk.
Do I need a fascia bracket on either side of a fitting?
The only fittings that need to be supported by a fascia bracket are gutter angles and stop ends. These should be supported by a bracket positioned within 150mm (6) of the fitting.
Do I need to use silicone sealant on PVC gutter joints?
No, the joint is sealed by the small rubber strip that is contained within all gutter unions, outlets, angles and stop ends. As the gutter is clipped in place, the downward pressure applied by the fascia brackets forces the gutter down on to the seal, compressing it to create a watertight joint.
How does the downpipe connect to the guttering?
As with all of our Gutter systems, the downpipe pushes directly onto the bottom of the Running Outlet or Stopend Outlet - no other connector is required. No adhesive or sealant is needed to make the joint but we recommend that you should always support any downpipe with a pipe clip within 200mm of the outlet.
How far into the gutter should roof tiles project?
The bottom tile or slate of the roof covering should project at least half way into the gutter - the ideal distance is between half way and two thirds of the way over. The reason for this is that whenever rain runs down any type of roof, when it gets to the lower edge it clings to the tile or slate by capilliary action - this means that the water actually runs around the bottom edge and slightlly back up the rear of the tile before gravity allows it to drop into the gutter. If the bottom course of tiles or slates only just projects into the gutter there is a real danger that rainwater will fall behind the gutter, leading to damp roof timbers or brickwork.
