Leaf Beater Downspout Filter from Australia

Downspout Filter, Leaf Beater


This design permits leaves and debris to exit the downspout and it may have a 'splash factor'. You still have to ensure that the leaves and gutter waste are removed for this unit to work effectively.

The manufacture suggests that the insect screen be used when there is a low flow volume of rain water through this unit.

One installation method has the top of the unit as close as possible to the gutter at the roof line. For ease of cleaning we suggest installation at eye level.

The bottom of the downspout filter slips inside the section of downspout that continues towards the ground.

These units have a retangular base and are designed to fit inside of a standard 3x4 downspout or connect to 3 inch or 4 inch drain pipe.

This downspout filter is manufactured in Australia by Rain Harvesting using lead-free PVC.
