Amerimax Home Products 3012-12 Universal Splash Block 24in

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 3012-12 is a 24-inch universal splash block designed to redirect rainwater runoff away from building foundations. Constructed from durable plastic, this splash block resists weathering and UV exposure through repeated wet and dry cycles. It channels water discharged from downspouts across a wide dispersion area, reducing soil erosion and hydrostatic pressure at the foundation perimeter. Weighing 12.5 pounds per case of 12 units, the block sits flat on grade at the base of any downspout and requires no fasteners or tools to install. Suitable for residential and light commercial applications.

This splash block is used wherever a downspout terminates at grade and water management away from the structure is required. It is appropriate for residential homes, townhouses, and small commercial buildings with standard gutter and downspout systems. The universal fit design accommodates round, rectangular, and corrugated downspout profiles without modification. It is particularly useful in clay-heavy or compacted soil conditions where standing water and foundation seepage are ongoing concerns.

Installation Notes

Splash blocks are typically placed by homeowners, general contractors, or exterior drainage specialists and require no licensed trade certification. Position the block on firm, level ground directly beneath the downspout outlet with the low end angled away from the foundation to promote positive drainage. No tools, fasteners, or adhesives are required. Periodically check that the block has not settled, shifted, or become obstructed by debris, which can redirect flow back toward the structure.
