DIY Aluminum Scupper | Conductor Head | Collection Box
4 Flat packed DIY panels will have a thin protective poly-film to be removed (as can be clearly seen in the images provided of completed scuppers:-)
Use your1/8\" rivets or short #8 x 1/4\" self tapping screws to secure the panels together.
For a water tight seal we suggest using a sealant designed for gutters/aluminum products
The all aluminum panels will never rust or dry-rot like plastic can and will over time.
2 common sizes fit most residential and commercial applications
12\" for 2x3 downspout
15\" for 3x4 downspout
Installation Hints:
1) Cutting the bottom opening to accommodate the location of the downspout pipe is much easier to do BEFORE putting the panels together
2) Pull protective film back just enough to build the Scupper. To protect the finish, remove the rest after installation.
3) Secure back and front panels first at the front/bottom. Install side panels next - YouTube Video coming soon!
This Aluminum Scupper Conductor Head adds a unique, beautiful architectural appeal while functioning to accept a larger volume water than a traditional outlet.
If you have a flat roof, getting that excess water drained quickly toprevent ponding is a must! Standing water can cause the roof membrane to deteriorate and even hasten failure. A scupper/conductor head can help move more water from the building to the downspouts more quickly to ensure the rainwater is draining more quickly.
With more water to move more quickly, there is reduced potential of backing up and overflowing of the gutter.
Installing thisarchitecturalshape also allows for multiple downspouts to be dumping water into 1 location to quickly alleviate overflow of a traditional gutter.
Each scupper is carefully formed so pieces easily line up and can be secured in place.
Scupper Boxes are known by many other names, such leader heads,collector heads, collector boxes, rainwater heads, rain collectors, and scupper boxes. Theycan be used for functional purposes such as making gutter cleaning easier and allowing multiple downspouts to deposit rainwater into one location. Most find that they prefer the aesthetics and are really mandatory on commercial or residential flat roofs.The copper color is well known for being on historic buildings because they have an elegant, classic look. (to get that copper appearance, please use a high quality paint and save the price of a \'real copper\' and look of green patina over time)
