Copper 6" Gutter System FAQ

What downspout size should I use with a 6" copper half-round gutter?

The standard match is a 3" round downspout, which works well for most residential applications. For larger roof areas or heavy rainfall, consider upgrading to a 4" or even 5" round downspout for increased drainage capacity. All options are compatible with our 6" copper gutter system.

What’s the difference between 16 oz. and 20 oz. copper?

16 oz. copper is suitable for most homes and provides excellent durability. 20 oz. copper is thicker and better suited for commercial buildings, slate roofs, or regions with heavy snow and ice.

Will the copper change color over time?

Yes. Copper will naturally age and develop a patina. It starts with a bright finish, then transitions to a darker bronze, and eventually to a greenish tone. This aging process protects the material and adds character over time.

Do I need sealant for copper gutter joints?

For best results, soldering is the recommended method for joining copper components. It creates a permanent, watertight bond. If soldering isn’t feasible, a high-quality metal gutter sealant can be used, but it may require future maintenance.
