Alumasc cast aluminium installed at mill

Alumasc has supplied a cast-aluminium rainwater system for a historic mill residential development.

A Heritage Rainwater system from Alumasc was chosen for the development of residential properties in Maidstone.

The Heritage Cast Aluminium system provides an alternative to cast iron, which until recently has been the only material capable of fulfilling the requirements of listed and heritage building projects.

Heritage Cast Aluminium was installed at the mill, supplied in a moulded gutter profile that required approval from English Heritage.

Gutter profiles are available to match traditional patterns: half-round, beaded half-round, beaded deep run, ogee and moulded, and there are five configurations of round, square and rectangular downpipes in various standard sizes.

Complementary fittings include fascia brackets, rafter arms and traditional drive-in rise and fall brackets.

Bespoke brackets were designed for two of the apartment blocks.

The Heritage Aluminium range is manufactured in traditional sizes and can be supplied in Mill Finish or Polyester Powder Coated in a choice of colours.

Heritage is strong, lightweight and designed for fast installation.

It features wet sealed and bolted joint connections and the downpipes are available with or without ears.

The system is BBA-approved and the material offers lifecycle economy, is corrosion resistant and is 100 per cent recyclable.
