Greenhouse guttering
« on: May 12, 2011, 13:49 »
I have a nice aluminium greenhouse that has guttering built in to the frame, but I have no fittings to connect a down pipe.

My question is, are these fitting universal?

Thanks :)

I don't know the make, I was lucky enough to get it off freecycle last year. The guttering is square though so it's a step in the right direction :)

Gardman do a cheapish downpipe if you Google it you can check the size is right :)

I had a similar problem and ended up using the upper part of a plastic milk bottle fastened to the frame with wire...

I was just about to suggest something like this...

What I've done with mine is use an L pieace of PVC pipe i had in the shed and make a couple of cuts into it so it fits snugly onto the end of the guttering with a couple of inches of overlap.  ore PVC pipe down to the water butt et voila!
