Emergency roof inlet gravity DN160 vertical, heated at 230V with overflow with adjustable height 28-68mm and bituminous collar HL62.1HSAFE/5

Emergency roof inlet with heater – protection against the effects of heavy rainfall

This vertical roof inlet, designed for emergency drainage systems, provides reliable protection of the building against the effects of intense atmospheric precipitation. Its construction allows for effective drainage of excess water in situations where the main roof drainage system is unable to cope. It is important to remember that the water drained in this way should be directed outside the roof drainage installation – e.g. to the area adjacent to the building.

This inlet is particularly useful in areas with variable weather and prone to sudden, heavy rainfall. Thanks to the use of a heating element (230V), freezing of water inside the inlet during low temperatures is prevented, ensuring its continuous functionality throughout the year.

Construction and functionality

The inlet is made of durable polypropylene (PP), which guarantees its corrosion resistance and long-term use. It is equipped with a bituminous collar, which ensures a tight connection with the roof covering. Adjustable overflow height (in the range of 28-68mm) allows for precise adjustment to the conditions prevailing on the roof and ensures optimal drainage efficiency. This smooth adjustment of the base height allows adaptation to the permissible water build-up height, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the system.

Additionally, the inlet has a leaf basket that prevents clogging of the drain by organic contaminants and other small elements. This solution minimizes the need for frequent cleaning and maintenance of the system.

Installation and application

The inlet is designed for DN160 socket connections or compensating sockets of HDPE welded systems. Installation is simple and intuitive, which translates into saving time and installation costs. It is an ideal solution for both professional installers and people independently undertaking renovation or construction works.

This model (HL62.1HSAFE/5) is primarily used in buildings with flat roofs, where the risk of flooding is higher. This is particularly important in industrial, commercial and public facilities, where the consequences of flooding can be serious.
