This new gutter has all the existing advantages of a raised system, but has also additional advantages:
- Roots cannot grow into the drain water channel.
- Leaves, fruit or additional waste cannot drop into the drain water channel.
- Hardly any algae problems due to water collection on the inside of the gutter. Light cannot reach the drain water.
- Gutter inside is very easy to clean.
- Gutters remain clean on the outside.
- Very strong gutter due to shape.
- Substrate slabs cannot fall off the gutter, for the slabs are locked in.
- Substrate on top of insulation material. So NO additional root warming due to temperature increase of the steel gutter. Less chance of getting pythium problems.
- Very solid and strong Polyurethane coating of min. 25 mu on top side.
- No scratching of the coating because the substrate lies on the polypropylene plate.
- The gutter can be made in different widths.
