“The only LPCB certified insulated gutter system

available on the market. The system is lightweight
and available up to 8m long for quick installation” LPS 1181 : Issue 1.2
Cert No : 260a & 186a

System Benefits
 LPCB certified to LPS 1181 Grade EXT-B and FM
approved PIR insulation core.
 Guaranteed for structural and thermal performance
for up to 15 years (IKO Armourplan 0.6mm and
Sika-Trocal 0.8mm membranes) and for up to
25 years (IKO Armourplan 1.2mm and Sika-Trocal
1.2mm membranes).
 Available in lengths up to 8m maximum. Longer

lengths mean less joints, less welding and less risk

Application
Our Membrane Lined Insulated Gutter is suitable for
boundary wall, valley and valley-hip gutter applications
for most building types. For further information, rainwater
drainage calculations and standard construction details
please contact the Kingspan Technical Services Department.
Membrane Lined Insulated Gutters are available in customer-
defined custom lengths up to and including 8m. Note that
lifting eyes and tackle can be provided on request for ease of
mechanical handling.*
A range of gutter components are available made to order,
including internal and external corners, stop ends, T-sections,
sumps, overflows and weirs.
plus faster installation.
 U-values ranging from 0.67W/m2K (30mm thick) to
0.21W/m2K (100mm thick) - fully compliant with the
appropriate National Building Regulations.
 Provides pre-melt drainage in the event of snow fall
and ice formation, facilitating drainage under winter
conditions.
 Lightweight and easy to install. A typical 60mm
thick gutter with 1200mm girth weighs just 15kg per
linear metre.
 IKO Armourplan membrane is available in Mid Grey
(RAL 7046), whilst Sika-Trocal membrane is available
in either Light Grey (RAL 7047) or Slate (RAL 7015).
 Factory-fitted outlets on request, including

customers own syphonic outlets.

Boundary Gutters
Boundary Gutters are inboard of the
building envelope, often behind a
parapet or feature eaves detail.
They are normally simply supported
from the eaves roof purlin and by a
single continuous support under the
vertical leg.
It is normal for a boundary gutter to
be designed for pre-melt drainage in
order to reduce potential snow loading
and minimise potential risks during
maintenance.
Stop ends, weir chutes and overflows
are important features of a boundary
gutter, as are T-sections and interfaces
where building elements meet.
Typical Dimension Ranges
Boundary Wall
Maximum 1000mm
Our boundary gutters have been fully
tested for non-fragility when simply
supported as shown and are suitable to
be used as a walkway, with a maximum
sole dimension of 1000mm. Wider soles
will require additional support.

may otherwise be difficult for a gravity

It is normal for a valley gutter to be

simply supported from the two roof
purlins adjacent to the valley.

Weir chutes and overflows are

particularly important for valley gutter
applications.

Typical Dimension Ranges

Valley

Maximum 850mm

Our valley gutters have been fully
tested for non-fragility when simply
supported as shown and are suitable to
be used as a walkway, with a maximum
sole of 850mm. Wider soles will require
additional support.
All jointing kits supplied complete with
the gutter, including rivets and jointing
membrane, reducing the need to source
from additional suppliers. Additional
jointing strip and other components are
available on request.

Note that when using 0.6mm membrane
it may be necessary to use additional
protection to the membrane if using the
gutter as a walkway, in order to ensure no
damage occurs to the membrane coating.
On request lifting eyes can be factory
fitted to enable easy mechanical
handling on site by crane or other lifting
equipment. Shackles and eye-bolts can
be supplied as necessary.

Kingspan Support
The Kingspan Technical Services Department offer technical advice and support throughout the design and construction process.
From the undertaking of roof drainage calculations to optimising the gutter size, outlet size and positions, to providing thermal
junction values for whole building calculations, we can help ensure that your building complies with the building and thermal
regulations. NBS format specifications are also available.

Our Field Service Engineers offer free contractor training on the installation of new and existing products at our specially designed
facilities at Holywell, North Wales. They also offer a site inspection service throughout the construction stage and can offer advice
on mechanical handling solutions.
