More about Alumasc Cast Aluminium Hoppers

Cast aluminium hoppers provide a decorative and functional feature that fits perfectly into traditional and period style rainwater systems. They act as a transition point between rainwater sources and downpipes helping to control flow while adding a characterful detail to the façade. Aluminium construction ensures strong resistance to weathering and eliminates rust issues meaning the hopper maintains its appearance long into the future. These units can be specified in a variety of shapes sizes and PPC colour finishes to match architectural details. They connect securely to compatible cast aluminium downpipes and gutter systems completing a well coordinated installation that supports both drainage performance and the heritage look of the property.

FAQ

What’s the role of a hopper in a rainwater system?

It collects water from one or more gutter outlets and channels it into a downpipe. It can also act as a rodding point for maintenance.

Are hoppers purely decorative?

No - they provide surge capacity during heavy rain and reduce pressure on the gutters. Their ornate designs are an added visual benefit.

Where should I position a hopper?

Install directly below the roof outlet or where multiple gutters converge. Ensure the outlet sits vertically over the downpipe to avoid sideways stress.

How do I fix a hopper securely?

Use stainless or galvanised bolts through the rear fixing lugs into solid masonry. For large or ornate hoppers, use wall plugs rated for the extra weight.

What sizes do Alumasc hoppers come in?

Standard outlets range from 63mm to 150mm, matching the main downpipe sizes. Custom dimensions can be made to order for complex systems.

Can hoppers be used on listed buildings?

Yes - they’re commonly specified on heritage sites as lightweight, corrosion-resistant replacements for cast iron.

Are bespoke designs possible?

Absolutely. Alumasc offers engraving, date plaques and custom shapes to replicate original patterns or company branding.

Do I need to seal the joint between hopper and downpipe?

Yes, apply a small bead of neutral silicone or use an EPDM gasket to prevent leaks and movement at the joint.
