WAVIN’S RAINWATER GUTTERING DELIVERS
PERFORMANCE GUARANTEED
Irish residential projects face a simple reality: heavier rainfall can overwhelm undersized guttering, particularly on taller or denser developments where run-off is concentrated. Getting roof drainage right first time makes the difference between smooth handovers and costly call-backs.
Wavin, one of Ireland’s leading suppliers of plumbing and drainage solutions, offers a choice of six rainwater gutter profiles to meet the varying aesthetic, capacity and installation requirements for all types of buildings. From single dwellings to large residential, commercial or industrial premises, Wavin offers a wide range of solutions – designed to be quick to install, visually clean and resilient.
Features include hydrodynamic running outlets that can handle up to 30% more rainwater than other similarly sized competitor systems. Specialist seal technology means the wide, retained seals provide a secure, watertight fixture with the flexibility to allow for thermal contractions. Ideal for the dramatic variations in temperature Ireland experiences between seasons.
For an aesthetically pleasing finish, Wavin fittings are engineered with concealed sockets to hide roughly cut downpipe ends. They are easy to install as the ‘Flexiclip’ seal jointing mechanism makes it simple to connect gutter units to fittings with an expansion line and stopper – ensuring a reliable and efficient installation every time. These different profiles ensure a suitable profile to cope with heavier rainfall, and the hydrodynamic outlets increase the capacity, allowing for the number of downpipes to be reduced:
Wavin DeepLine, is a semi-elliptical profiled high-capacity domestic system. It can serve a roof area of up to a maximum of 299m2 with one downpipe. It is available in Anthracite Grey to match contemporary facades, giving greater choice to specifiers.
StormLine offers similar high capacity in an Ogee profile featuring a high front edge to catch intense flows. Serving a roof area of up to 254m2 with one downpipe, it delivers a stylish finish in areas like conservatories and around the roof perimeter. It can be installed with hanging brackets for a seamless finish – ideal for detached properties. The outlets connect directly to Wavin square or round downpipe for further aesthetic flexibility.
RoundLine is a half round profile ideal for domestic applications which serves roof areas of up to 163m2.
SquareLine is a square profiled system for domestic applications serving roof areas up to a maximum of 178m2 with one downpipe.The final two profiles, SuperLine and RoofLine, are ideal for industrial and commercial use.
