The shoe is the fitting used at the bottom of the downpipe when it is not being connected to a drainage pipe or gully.The shoe should be angled so that the open section faces away from the building.Installation is a simple push fit joint. If pedestrian traffic close to the fitting is likely then the shoe can be secured in place with silicon sealant or solvent weld, although we would recommend the push fit option as it allows easy removal for cleaning.For a quick PBSL Group video overview please take a look below.
