What is the FloPlast Universal Rainwater Adaptor used for?

It connects rainwater down-pipes of 68mm, 80mm or 100mm diameter to a 110mm underground drainage system with a watertight stepped adaptor.

Which regulations does the adaptor comply with?

The adaptor complies with BS EN 12200-1 and BS EN 1401-1 standards for underground drainage fittings.

Is this adaptor suitable for outdoor installations?

Yes. The FloPlast D96 is designed for external rainwater down-pipe systems connecting to underground drainage, suitable for domestic outdoor environments.

How do you cut the FloPlast D96 adaptor for different downpipe sizes?

The adaptor has stepped internal diameters with cutting lines marked for 68mm, 80mm, and 100mm pipes. Simply cut at the appropriate step using a fine-toothed saw to match your downpipe diameter.

Does the D96 adaptor fit all 110mm underground drain systems?

Yes, it's designed with a standard 110mm spigot end that connects to any BS EN 1401 compliant 110mm underground drainage fitting or socket.

What's the best way to ensure a watertight seal with this adaptor?

Clean both surfaces thoroughly before fitting, then push the adaptor firmly into the 110mm socket until fully seated. The rubber ring seal in the drainage fitting will provide the watertight connection.

Can the FloPlast D96 be used with cast iron downpipes?

Yes, as long as the internal diameter matches one of the stepped sizes (68mm, 80mm, or 100mm), the material of the downpipe doesn't affect compatibility.

Is any additional jointing compound needed when installing this adaptor?

No additional sealant is required. The adaptor relies on the existing rubber ring seal in the 110mm drainage socket for a watertight connection.

What depth should the adaptor be installed at in the ground?

The adaptor should be installed at the same depth as your 110mm drainage system, typically between 450mm and 1 metre below ground level depending on your specific drainage layout.

Can this adaptor be used for connecting to soakaways?

Yes, the D96 is suitable for directing rainwater into soakaways via 110mm drainage pipe, making it ideal for sustainable drainage systems.
