Felszállócsövei

Felszállócsövei is a Hungarian term that translates to "downspouts" or "rain leaders" in English. It refers to the vertical pipes that are part of a building's rainwater drainage system. The primary function of felszállócsövei is to collect rainwater that has been channeled from the roof by gutters or eaves and to direct it downwards to the ground or into an underground drainage system. These pipes are essential for protecting a building's foundation, walls, and landscaping from water damage caused by excessive rainfall.

Felszállócsövei are typically made from materials such as galvanized steel, aluminum, copper, uPVC, or cast iron, chosen for their durability and resistance to corrosion. The size and number of felszállócsövei required for a building depend on the roof's surface area, the average rainfall in the region, and the local building codes. Proper installation is crucial to ensure efficient water flow and to prevent blockages. Regular maintenance, including cleaning out debris like leaves and twigs, is recommended to maintain the system's effectiveness and longevity. In some cases, felszállócsövei may also be designed to connect to cisterns or rain barrels for water harvesting purposes.
