Amerimax Home Products 85011 Flex Poly Downspout Extension

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 85011 is a flexible polyethylene downspout extension designed to direct roof runoff away from a structure's foundation. It connects to standard residential downspouts and stretches from a compact 24 inches up to 55 inches, giving installers flexibility to route water discharge across varying ground conditions. The extension fits two common downspout sizes: 2 inches x 3 inches and 3 inches x 4 inches, making it a widely applicable solution for residential gutter systems. The green finish blends with lawn areas for low-visibility installation. Packaged in quantities of 12, this extension is well suited for contractors stocking up for multi-unit or seasonal gutter service work.

This extension is used in residential gutter and drainage applications where a rigid elbow or splash block provides insufficient reach or directional control. It is particularly useful on properties with grading challenges, landscaping borders, or tight clearances near walkways and foundations. Installation is straightforward and does not require specialty tools, making it a standard item for gutter service technicians and general contractors handling exterior drainage work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by gutter installers or general contractors as part of exterior drainage work. No special tools are required; the extension slips onto the downspout outlet and can be secured with a sheet metal screw if needed to prevent displacement. Position the discharge end so water is directed away from the foundation, walkways, and any below-grade structures. Verify local grading and drainage codes for required minimum setback distances from the foundation.
