100mm downpipes are designed to direct water flow from your roof and drain off the gutter. This makes the water flow out of your property easier and keeps your home safe from any potential flooding.
These 100mm downpipes are available in both cast iron and aluminium metals. The choice depends on whether you want something that will last a long time or if you want something that looks great. 100mm downpipe guttering is probably the most common type of guttering you will see around homes these days. It is also one of the most versatile and cost-effective types of guttering available on the market today, especially when compared to other types.
Downpipes are designed to be installed over 100mm (4") downpipe fittings but can be used on smaller diameter fittings and accessories with some modifications. They come in three different styles: the smooth profile, corrugated profile or half-round profile. Gutters Online stocks all these 100mm downpipe profiles, ensuring you have all you need for a complete installation.
Benefits of 100mm Downpipe
Here are some of the benefits of 100mm downpipe guttering:
It’s easy to install
Most 100mm downpipes come pre-assembled with all fittings included, so you simply have to cut them to size, fit them into place and secure them with screws or clips. Then, you only need to add some flashing tape around the joints between the pipes and roof tiles to ensure they don't leak.
Flexibility
100mm downpipes can be installed in any direction and don't have to follow the slope of your roof. This is useful if you've had to make compromises with your design, or if the ground has been excavated in a less than ideal manner.
Less Costly
The higher cost of using smaller diameter downpipes is usually outweighed by the benefits above. The larger size also gives you more flexibility with your design, making it easier to adapt as your needs change over time.
It Has a Long Lifespan
The lifespan of 100mm downpipe guttering is much longer than other types on the market today because it doesn't rust or corrode easily like other downpipes. This means you can use them for many years without worrying about broken guttering or leaks in your roof.

Installation Tips and Considerations of 100mm Downpipe
Here are some tips on how to install the 100mm downpipe guttering properly:
If you are installing the 100mm downpipe guttering on an existing gutter system, make sure that you first use a spirit level to check whether it is straight or not. If it isn't, then you need to adjust it before continuing with your installation process. Again, this is because you don't want to tamper with its leak-proof ability.
When installing two pieces of 100mm downpipe together, make sure that they are joined together properly and securely so that they don't come apart when the water pressure is applied to them.
If you want to connect two pieces of 100mm downpipes, use aluminium connectors to help prevent any leaks from occurring in the future due to corrosion or wear and tear issues.
If you have a large gap between your two downpipes, it's best to get some extra length for them so they can reach across without being too close together.
The installation process is quite simple and easy to do on your own if you are limited on your budget to get a professional to do it for you.
