Frequently Asked Questions

What does 5″ European mean for this gutter system?

The 5″ designation refers to the capacity and scale of the system compared to a traditional 5″ gutter. This system is engineered around Zambelli’s 280 mm European platform, delivering comparable water-handling performance while using precision-formed, metric-based components designed to work together as a complete system.

Is this gutter system compatible with standard 5″ US gutter components?

No, This system is not compatible with standard US 5″ gutters, fittings, or downspouts. All components are designed to work exclusively within the Zambelli 280 mm system, ensuring proper fit, reliable performance, and long-term durability.

What material is the Zambelli painted steel gutter system made from?

This system is manufactured from pre-finished painted steel, offering exceptional strength, rigidity, and long-term finish durability. Painted steel provides greater resistance to deformation and wear than aluminum while maintaining a clean, architectural appearance.

Are half-round gutters suitable for residential homes?

Absolutely. While often associated with historic or European architecture, half round gutters and downspouts are commonly used on modern residential homes for their clean appearance, durability, and superior drainage performance.

Do half-round gutters perform better than K-style gutters?

Yes. Half round rain gutters allow water to collect at the lowest point of the gutter, increasing flow velocity and helping wash debris through the system. This makes half circle gutters less prone to buildup compared to traditional K-style gutters.
