Roofwater Drainage System

  Installation of rainwater drainage systems is crucial for the optimal drainage of accumulated rain on the rooftops as well as surface roads. For rooftops, the rainwater drainage system consists of a range of downpipes and fittings that drain the pipe from the top of the building to discharge it into a tank for reuse or into the main drainage system. Rainwater pipe fittings are of crucial importance in the rainwater management system as they connect the pipes to ensure seamless drainage of the excess water. Here are the key considerations to keep in mind when choosing rainwater pipe fittings: 1.        Choose the fittings for rainwater drainage according to the requirement. From securing pipes to filtering out the debris, fittings serve different purposes. Choose from elbows, tees, crosses, sand traps and filters according to the requirement of the pipe network to ensure seamless drainage of the rainwater. 2.        Durable materials of rainwater pipe connector fittings are also r

  With the scarcity of water being felt in many parts of the world, there has been felt an increasing need for sustainable water management practices. However, there continues to remain a shortfall in the measures undertaken to efficiently conserve water and put it to proper use. One of the inadequacies also arises in the form of lack of adequate infrastructure for water management. In flood-prone regions and areas which receive heavy rainfall, the installation of rainwater drainage systems for rooftops is of essence, in ensuring proper drainage and preventing of floods. Read on to know the various disadvantages of not installing the correct systems for rooftop rainwater drainage: 1.        In area where rainwater management systems are not installed, in case of excess rainfall, there accumulates surface runoff on the roof. This accumulated water, if not drained off using a roof rainwater drainage system can lead to flooding on the roof. This in turn is a health and sanitation hazard
