With the UK climate seemingly producing more and more rain, having effective drainage systems installed into your property has never been more important. This is especially true if you wish to stop the build up of water on a flat roof. At Wallbarn, we specialise in supplying flat roof drain outlets to ensure lasting relief from the effects of inclement weather.
Why Use Roof Drain Outlets?
The nature of water will ensure that it will spread until it finds the lowest available level. This is why flat roof drain outlets are required across the roof, to ensure water is released rather than leaving it standing and then eventually entering the structure.
As the depth of water on the roof or gutter increases, it generates a force to move the water flow towards holes or openings called roof drain outlets that convey the water to a lower level. The flat roof drain outlets are connected to pipes that drop to ground level and into the underground drainage system.

Water Management
Drain connectors are essential on a flat roof or podium deck as the rainwater run-off needs to be managed in some way. Obviously the more drainage outlets cast into the deck, the less risk of ponding during a deluge.
However watertight the roof itself is, if these drainage holes are not also watertight, there is a large risk of moisture seeping into the fabric of the building, causing long-term damage to the structure and its content.
- Drain connectors for circular downpipes cast in the middle of the concrete deck
- Corner fittings for holes on the junction of horizontal and parapet wall
- Collars, to fit around pipework which is emitting from the deck
- Vents and aerators, which draw vapour out of the concrete
- Accessories, including leaf guards, corner patches and extensions
