Aluminium Hoppers

Aluminium Hoppers


High Quality Pressed and Cast Aluminium Rainwater Heads

Aluminium hoppers for guttering are an excellent choice for many homes. They are a good option when you need to add a few extra downpipes, and they can be used as part of a new build or replacement job.

They are also ideal for replacing old, worn-out guttering systems. You can also use them to replace sections of your existing gutter damaged by storms or other weather events.

The aluminium hopper is made from high-quality aluminium, which means it is strong, durable, lightweight, and easy to install.

The aluminium hopper has an integrated downpipe outlet that makes connecting it directly to your existing downpipe system easy. This means there is no need to cut into your house wall or make any other changes to the structure of your home.

Now available in 7-10 working days, made to suit your project. Hoppers can be finished in any standard RAL polyester powder coated colour to match other aluminium gutters and rainwater downpipes from Gutters Online.


Benefits of Aluminium Hopper Heads

Cast aluminium and pressed aluminium hopper heads are available in various sizes and fit perfectly with our aluminium rainwater systems. They are durable, long-lasting, easy to install and suit various building styles.

Here are some of the benefits that you can expect from using an aluminium hopper:


Highly Durable

Aluminium is one of the most durable metals on earth. This means it will last many years without showing wear or tear. It does not rust, corrode or break down like other metals.

You won't have to worry about replacing your guttering system often if you use aluminium hoppers.


Easy Installation

The installation process is simple and requires no special tools or equipment. You can install the aluminium hopper yourself or have someone else do it for you at a reasonable price.

If you choose to install the aluminium yourself, you only need some basic tools and a few hours of free time!


Lightweight

When installed properly, these hoppers are lightweight and don't add much weight to your roofline. They also come in multiple sizes, so you can choose one that fits perfectly with your home – no matter how large or small!


Installation Tips for Aluminium Hoppers

Aluminium hoppers can be fitted directly onto a fascia board (the timber board that runs along the roof's edge), or they may need additional support to ensure they don't sag over time.

If you plan on fitting a hopper without a roofing contractor, ensure you have enough space above the roofline for the length of pipe needed for your chosen model.


Make sure the hopper is level

It is important to ensure your hopper is level before installing it. If not, this will affect your guttering system's performance since water will not flow smoothly into your drainage system.

To ensure your hopper is level, try using a spirit level or just put some water inside it to see if any leaks are coming out. If everything seems alright, then continue with further steps.


Secure your hopper head properly

Ensure that hopper heads are securely fastened to avoid displacement or detachment during severe weather. Typically, aluminium hoppers are positioned near the upper portion of the downpipe to function as a surge tank for heavy rainfall and to accommodate multiple downpipe outlets from smaller roof areas.


Bespoke design or standard hopper head

Pressed and cast aluminium rainwater hoppers (or hopper heads) are ideal for swaged or cast-collared aluminium downpipes. Supplied in various sizes with outlets to suit your downpipe and bracket configuration, we have a wide range of aluminium hopper heads to suit any project.

Our cast aluminium hopper heads are manufactured using traditional methods to maintain the aesthetic appeal of listed and heritage buildings.

Our pressed aluminium hopper heads are fully fabricated, allowing unlimited design choices.
