Description
An Elite Swept Tee is a specialised fitting used in the guttering systems of Elite greenhouses. It is designed to join two horizontal gutter sections with a third vertical downpipe, or another gutter section, typically forming a T-junction. This component allows rainwater to be directed from different sections of the greenhouse roof into a common drainage point, optimising water management and collection.
The “swept” aspect of the design refers to the gentle curve or angle of the Tee’s internal path, which minimises turbulence and ensures smooth water flow. This reduces the risk of clogging or water pooling in the gutter system.
The Elite Swept Tee is generally easy to install, requiring basic tools such as a screwdriver and possibly sealant for extra waterproofing. It is typically clipped or slid into place where the three gutter sections meet and secured with screws if necessary.
Any fittings and attachments can be purchased in order for you to tailor a system specific for your requirements. Standard draining pipes are available in 1m or 3m lengths.
