Description

Competa CUG4SH Square Hopper for 110mm Underground Drainage

The Competa CUG4SH square hopper is a practical surface water collection fitting designed for compatible underground drainage installations. This 110mm square hopper features a plain spigot outlet for connection into a suitable 110mm underground drainage socket, providing a straightforward way to direct rainwater and suitable external waste water into the below-ground drainage system. The spigot square hopper is useful around patios, yards, paved areas and rainwater drainage points where water needs to be collected through an open hopper before entering underground pipework. Its square top makes it a practical square drainage hopper for installation alongside paving, while the fitting provides a compact underground drainage hopper solution for domestic, trade and repair projects.

Competa CUG4SH Square Hopper

The Competa CUG4SH square hopper provides an open drainage collection point above a compatible 110mm underground drainage system. Water entering the hopper is directed down through the body and into the spigot-ended outlet. The plain-ended connection is designed to fit into a compatible underground drainage socket, making the hopper straightforward to incorporate into a new or existing drainage run.

110mm Square Hopper

The 110mm square hopper is designed for use with compatible nominal 110mm underground drainage pipework. The spigot-ended outlet allows the fitting to connect directly into a suitable 110mm socket rather than requiring another socket on the hopper itself. This makes the 110mm square hopper useful where a surface-level collection point needs to feed directly into underground drainage.

Spigot Square Hopper

The spigot square hopper uses a plain-ended outlet connection. The spigot is inserted into a compatible 110mm underground drainage socket to form the connection with the pipe system below. Before assembly, check that the receiving socket and sealing ring are clean and correctly positioned. The hopper should remain properly aligned and supported rather than relying on the pipe joint alone to hold it in place.

Underground Drainage Hopper

An underground drainage hopper provides a convenient collection point for rainwater, surface water and suitable external waste discharge before directing the flow into below-ground drainage pipework. The CUG4SH underground drainage hopper can be positioned where water naturally collects or beneath suitable external drainage outlets, depending on the layout of the installation.

Square Drainage Hopper

The square top of this square drainage hopper works particularly well alongside paving slabs, concrete and other straight-edged finished surfaces. A square drainage hopper can provide a neater fit than a round opening where the surrounding area is being laid out using rectangular or square paving.

Bossed Side Connection Points

The existing Speedy Plastics stock description identifies the CUG4SH as having bossed sides. These moulded connection areas can provide additional flexibility where compatible smaller drainage or waste connections are required. The exact boss diameters are not independently published for this product, so check the physical fitting and the required pipe size before cutting or opening any boss connection. Any unused boss areas should remain unopened.

Surface Water Collection

The Competa CUG4SH square hopper can be used to collect surface water from suitable external areas and direct it into a connected underground drainage system. Typical applications can include:

• Patios
• Garden paving
• Yards
• Paths
• Rainwater drainage points
• Areas beneath suitable downpipe outlets
• External waste water collection points
• Domestic drainage projects
• Renovation and extension work

Using a 110mm Square Hopper with Paving

When installing the 110mm square hopper within a paved area, establish the finished surface level before permanently positioning the fitting. The hopper should sit at an appropriate level to allow water to enter freely without creating a raised obstruction or leaving the surrounding paving unsupported. Maintain an appropriate fall in the surrounding surface towards the hopper where the installation is intended to collect surface runoff.

Installing the Spigot Square Hopper

Plan the underground drainage route and hopper position before excavation. Fit the spigot square hopper into a compatible 110mm socket and make sure the fitting remains upright and correctly supported. Check the socket, sealing ring and spigot for dirt or damage before assembly. Where appropriate, use suitable drainage lubricant to help assemble the ring-seal connection without damaging the seal. Once connected, test the drainage route and check that water can flow freely before completing the surrounding backfill, concrete or paving.

Maintaining an Underground Drainage Hopper

Keep the underground drainage hopper accessible so leaves, silt and other debris can be removed if they begin to restrict water flow. Regular inspection is especially useful where the hopper is located near trees, soil or landscaped areas. Preventing larger debris from building up inside the hopper can help reduce the risk of material entering the underground drainage pipework.

Square Hopper Grid and Accessories

A compatible square grid can help prevent larger leaves, stones and debris entering the square drainage hopper while still allowing water to pass through. Where a replacement grid is required, check compatibility and dimensions before ordering. The Competa CUG4SG is the matching square-grid product within this drainage range.
