Which PVC Pipe to use for downpipe?

[jmowani]

Hi,

I'm looking to replace a rusted metal downpipe with PVC pipe. I'm confused as which PVC pipes and fittings can be used as downpipes. The following is labelled as downpipe:

Icon Plastics 80mm x 3m Round Downpipe - Bunnings Australia

Can the following also be used as downpipe?

Holman 75mm x 3m Stormwater Pipe - Bunnings Australia

Thank You

Hi @jmowani,

Please post some photos and the size/diameter of the downpipe that needs to be replaced.

Cheers

Hello @jmowani 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about downpipes.

In order for our members to get a better idea of what your current down pipe arrangement looks like, would it be possible for you to post a few photos of the gutter and downpipe itself? Once our members have a better look, they'll be able to offer recommendations on what PVC size to use.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
