Profiled (Square) Rainwater Systems
Profiled (Square) Rainwater Systems
The profiled (square) rainwater system by Akvilon is a modern engineering solution for the drainage of rainwater and melted snow. Thanks to its strict straight lines, it perfectly complements buildings with contemporary architecture (Hi-Tech, Barnhouse, Minimalism), creating a harmonious transition between the roof and the facade.
Unlike classic semi-circular systems, the square cross-section of the gutters and pipes provides an increased flow capacity. This means the system handles extreme downpours and rapid snowmelt more effectively, reliably protecting your facade from dampness and the foundation from erosion.
Materials and Durability
All elements are manufactured from high-quality steel that maintains geometric stability during sharp temperature changes and doesn't crack in the frost. Depending on your budget and operating conditions, you can choose from three coating options:
- Galvanized Steel (ZN): The basic and most economical option with reliable rust protection. Excellent for commercial, warehouse, and utility buildings.
- Polyester (PE): Galvanized steel with a polymer coating resistant to corrosion and UV fading. The ideal choice for private homes, allowing you to perfectly match the gutter color from the RR catalog.
- Premium PURAL Coating: Maximum protection. The reinforced polymer layer excellently resists mechanical damage (e.g., scratches from sliding ice) and maintains a flawless appearance for decades.
Systems with PE and PURAL coatings are available in a wide European color range. View the full color catalog (RR).
Complete Range of Components
We manufacture all the necessary parts to assemble a reliable and leak-proof system of any configuration:
Horizontal Section (Water Collection)
Gutters: Profiled channels up to 5 meters long (fewer joints mean higher water-tightness).
Gutter Corners: Internal and external elements (90° or any custom angle upon request).
Accessories: Outlet funnels, right and left end caps.
Vertical Section (Water Discharge)
Downpipes: Segments of 1.0 m and 2.0 m lengths to form the vertical drop.
Pipes with Elbow: Ready-made elements (2.2 m) for safely directing water to the pavement without extra joints.
Offsets (Elbows): Parts with offsets (120 mm, 700 mm) or without, for bypassing eaves and protrusions.
Fasteners and Mounting
Gutter Brackets: Internal (hidden), as well as external long (for rafters) and short (for fascia board).
Pipe Brackets: Reliable two-piece clamps, including assembled models with adjustable mounting straps.
Advantages of Working Directly with the Manufacturer
- Predictable Lead Times: Galvanized steel (ZN) systems are assembled in 1–3 days. Colored elements (PE/PUR) are produced in 5–7 working days.
- Custom Solutions: Our production facility allows us to manufacture corners with non-standard angles or elements to bypass complex facades, eliminating the need for unnecessary adapters.
- Engineering Calculations: Our specialists will calculate the required system capacity free of charge (according to EN 12056-3), select the cross-sections, and provide a full estimate.
Installation and Accessories
The foundation of stable operation is the correct slope. When installing the horizontal part, it's necessary to ensure a gutter slope of 3–5 mm per 1 running meter. This allows the water to drain by gravity, preventing standing puddles and ice formation in winter.
SIA "Akvilon" provides professional installation services. Our specialists guarantee exact geometric alignment, accurate slope calculation, and 100% leak-proof joints.
European Certification and Quality Standards
The products fully comply with the requirements of the Construction Products Regulation (CPR). All system components undergo strict quality control, bear the mandatory CE marking, and are accompanied by a Declaration of Performance (DoP), confirming their reliability according to harmonized EU standards.
