Cast Iron Rainwater & Gutter Systems
No other material can match the character, durability, strength or appeal of cast iron and - most importantly - only cast iron can preserve the intentions of the original architect and the aesthetic integrity of the building.
Strength
- High resistance to impact (accidental and vandalism) a major consideration for inner cities, town shopping precincts and schools etc
- Secure against - heavy snow falls and high winds
- Rigidity to comfortably accommodate the weight of ladders for routine maintenance
- The physical properties of cast iron will be sustained throughout its life (provided adequately painted and maintained)
Acoustics
- Will not rattle in high winds
- Will not twist/creak due to temperature changes
- Excellent sound deadening properties - therefore no significant sound of running or dripping water disturbing the peace
Appearance
- Cast iron has aesthetic charm that simply cannot be matched by other materials
- Retains and enhances the traditional character of the building
- Can be painted any colour to match building
- Enhances perception of the value to the property
- Many profiles to match virtually all architectural styles
Longevity
- Naturally durable up to 100 years
- Cost effective in long term
- Minimal maintenance: If installed correctly to the manufacturer's recommendations (- refer to Installation Guide), cast iron systems should require little structural maintenance throughout their life only periodical painting approximately every 5 years or longer (depending on location and climatic conditions)
- Eliminates unnecessary replacement and waste
- Profile designs have changed little over the years. Therefore new components can easily be integrated into existing systems, avoiding costs of complete replacement
