Amerimax Home Products 85014 Flex Downspout Extension

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 85014 is a flexible polyethylene downspout extension designed to direct roof drainage away from a building's foundation. The extension fits standard 2 inch x 3 inch and 3 inch x 4 inch downspout outlets and stretches from 24 inches up to 55 inches in length, allowing the installer to position the discharge point as site conditions require. The flexible construction bends around obstacles at grade level without additional fittings. Exterior contractors, roofers, and general builders install this component as part of a complete gutter drainage system.

This extension is suited for residential gutter systems where downspouts terminate near landscaping, driveways, or finished grade. The adjustable length makes it practical on uneven ground or where the discharge point must clear a sidewalk or bed border. It is sold in a package quantity of 12 units, making it efficient to stock for multi-unit or multi-downspout jobs. The tan color is intended to blend with common fascia and trim finishes.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — the extension slides over the existing downspout outlet and is typically secured with a sheet-metal screw or gutter sealant. Position the discharge end so water flows away from the foundation at a positive grade per local drainage requirements. Inspect the connection point for secure fit before reinstalling any splash blocks or drainage tiles. No power tools or permits are typically required for this scope of work, though local codes should always be confirmed.
