| "Chute"
Discharge Through Rear of Gutter |
 |
There are situations where it
is impossible to find drainage on the Conservatory side of the wall. This 200mm wide
chute protrudes through the rear of the Gutter to discharge into a hopper on an outside
wall. |

Discharging Through Stop End |

This illustration shows an
innovative method of discharging your plastic gutter water directly into the end of ELTECH
Box Gutters.
Special sealant is provided for this application. |

| Gutter Blending into
Double Sided Flat Valleys |
|
This application is often
requested, ELTECH cut down the back of the Box Gutter as shown, and weld on a section of
the Timber Ring Beam Support, utilising the the complete section for Timber roofs, and by
cutting the base off,is also suitable for all uPVC and Aluminium roofs. The section
is welded to the Box Gutter. |
The section can
be the full length if required, but the recommended unsupported spans are halved -
compared with the 400mm Flat Valley - no more than 3m and only for Polycarbonate roofs.
This also applies to a Box Gutter continuing on as a Flat Valley.
When modified, the "gap" in between the two curved sections is approximately
60mm. |

| 400mm wide Flat Valley
Gutter Support |
 |
This illustration shows the
steel box section support under the discharge end of the 400mm wide Flat Valley. ELTECH
recommend the section is 150x150x6mm thick square section - for a 6m run 100x100x6mm could
be used for shorter runs, but Chartered Structural Engineers should be consulted in all
cases, as the self weight of the Valley (104 kilos per 6m), plus the snow load, weight of
double glazing, etc. must be calculated. |
