GET READY FOR THE
‘DOWNPOUR’ OF
GUTTERING WORK!
Autumn is traditionally
a time for consumers to get
home improvement jobs
done before the Winter sets
in. With the lack of rainfall
this summer gutters have
been sitting idle but been
subject to massive changes
in temperature from highs
of 30o to lows of 10o. With
the inevitable expansion
and contraction this brings
it’s likely that with the first
downpour gutters will have
developed leaks.
Freefoam have now
launched a new version
of their rainwater brand
Freeflow® brochure. Show-
casing the full range of
Square, Round, Ogee, Deep
and Cast-Iron effect PVC
guttering and illustrating the
major benefits of their inno-
vative system the brochure
is a great selling tool for all
fitters.
Whilst guttering is often
seen as a commodity, with
one brand very much like
another, Freefoam has
developed a series of clever
innovations to raise the bar
on guttering and solves the
usual niggling issues - such
‘

as scratches on the outside,
discolouration over time and
call backs to leaks – making
life easier for installers!
Each rainwater system is
co-extruded with a white
interior and a range of exte-
rior colours.
Freeflow features pioneer-
ing long-life compressible
seals which create flexible
water-tight joints when
lengths of guttering are
connected.
All Freeflow gutters and
downpipes come covered
with protective film so they
can survive knocks in transit
and can be installed without
scratches.
Freefoam is the colour
specialist. Offering White,
Black, Brown, Caramel and
Grey rainwater ranges using
Freefoam’s patented Color-
maxTM technology.

ARCHED COMPOSITE
DOORS TO TRULY
ENHANCE YOUR HOME
If you have a unique entrance, Force
8 has the frame and the door for
you. All this provides the modern
aesthetics that you are looking for.
Force 8’s arched composite
doors are available in a VEKA
Halo or System 10 profile with a
one-piece sash bend that is fully
reinforced. A 1200mm stainless
steel square offset pull handle is
on both sides of the door with a
slam shut available. Force 8 uses
SFS Dynamic 2D hinges which
have style and security as stand-
ard.
Depending on the style of the
arch, this allows for welds and
steel reinforcements to be used
where it’s possible, creating the
true radius of the arch. By using
this process, this allows Force 8
to design and manufacture arches
and curved sections of any size to
the correct measurements.
Force 8 have also recently devel-
oped the Versace door, which was
Spectus VS used to
restore a Cardiff property
to its former glory
Heath Windows & Doors
based on a customer’s needs. The
part arched composite door is set
within a full arched frame but is
set off centre giving the entrance a
contemporary edge.
