Description
The universal rainwater hopper is a high-capacity rainwater collection fitting designed to channel water from multiple gutter outlets or downpipes into a single drainage system. Manufactured by Freefoam as part of the Freeflow rainwater range, the universal rainwater hopper provides efficient water management for both residential and light commercial rainwater installations.
Constructed from durable co-extruded uPVC, the universal rainwater hopper offers excellent resistance to corrosion, UV exposure and weathering, ensuring long-lasting external performance with minimal maintenance. The large hopper head design allows increased water intake, helping to manage high volumes of rainwater from roof drainage systems, particularly during heavy rainfall.
This universal rainwater hopper is fully compatible with Freefoam 68mm round downpipes and Freeflow rainwater fittings including connectors, bends, branches and access pipes. It is ideal for installations where multiple gutter runs discharge into one downpipe, or where improved water collection and controlled discharge are required.
Commonly used on houses, extensions, period properties and light commercial buildings, the universal rainwater hopper provides both functional drainage performance and a traditional aesthetic finish. The integrated outlet ensures smooth and efficient water flow into the downpipe system while reducing the risk of overflow and water spillage.
Available in black, white, brown and anthracite, the universal rainwater hopper provides a consistent and colour-matched finish that integrates seamlessly with the full Freeflow rainwater system. It is an essential component for high-capacity rainwater collection, improved drainage efficiency and long-term gutter system performance.
