Rainwater leaf guard rain head Revit family designed with an angled debris screen and circular downpipe discharge collar for roof eaves. The component features an open-top hopper body shaped to receive water discharge directly beneath an eaves gutter. An angled screen face sits inside the upper aperture to deflect leaves and organic debris away from the intake whilst allowing clean stormwater to drop through. Below the filtering chamber, a moulded transition funnels runoff into a downward cylindrical spout suited for standard circular rainwater downpipes. Illustrated in a clean architectural grey finish, the geometry exhibits sharp sheet metal or moulded polymer contours compatible with fascia and soffit junction detailing.
The download is a 236 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
Load the RFA component into your Revit project environment to coordinate stormwater drainage routes along exterior elevations. Position the family beneath gutter outlets and align its outlet node with vertical rainwater pipework runs. Material parameters can be customized across the hopper body and mesh screen to match project roofing specifications and sheet metal schedules.
Engineered for residential dwellings, light commercial schemes, and agricultural outbuildings, this rainwater filter head is essential for rainwater harvesting setups, gutter filtration, and stormwater prevention systems. It accurately depicts exterior plumbing connections on facade documentation, elevation drawings, and 3D external renders, offering MEP engineers and architects realistic drainage details at roof overhangs.
