RectorSeal Introduces Dura G-O-N Commercial Polymer Roof Drain Downspout with Glue-On-Nozzle
RectorSeal LLC introduces Dura G-O-N to its Glue-On-Nozzle product line of decorative downspouts for commercial building roof drains. Dura G-O-N is a high-impact polymer version of the original nickel-bronze G-O-N and offers the same easy, cost-saving installation features. Dura G-O-N and the original G-O-N are the plumbing and building industries’ only decorative downspout nozzles with a theft-resistant glue-on design that can be installed after the wall or building is completed.
Dura G-O-N is USA made. The integration of its aesthetic patina-like bronze color during the polymer injection molding process makes its simulated oil-rubbed finish indistinguishable from a metal downspout. As a value-engineered, but equally functional alternative to the original metal G-O-N, Dura G-O-N is perfect for retrofits, less visible back-of-building applications or smaller projects with only a few roof drains.
Dura G-O-N is available in 4-inch diameter (10 cm), the building industry’s most popular downspout size, however 3-inch- and 6-inch-diameter (7 and 15 cm) models are planned for a first quarter 2018 release.
Dura G-O-N installs within minutes by fastening the three-screw escutcheon plate to the wall and then solvent cement-welding the nozzle’s PVC insert to the outside diameter of the building’s PVC drain pipe. Unlike the decorative downspout industry’s screw-on nozzles, the patented G-O-N glue-on technology is theft-resistant.
Other Dura G-O-N features include:
- Packaged in an easy-to-merchandise 9 1/4-inch wide by 9 ½-inch-high by 6-inch-diameter (23 x 24 cm) two-color cardboard box with installation instructions printed on the outside
- Includes ultraviolet inhibitors and other built-in weather resistance to maintain the faux verdigris charm that simulates weathered metal
- Unique notched escutcheon guarantees perfect leveling and alignment between flange and downspout on each installation
- Saves construction costs and expedites rough-ins because it’s installed after wall completion, thus eliminating masonry crew coordination and project interruptions required with screw-on downspouts
- Optional bird screen available
- And available at most plumbing wholesale distributors
