What Is a Gutter Drain?

A gutter drain is designed to intercept water that travels in a straight line along an edge, such as a curb, wall, or slab transition. Instead of collecting water from a wide surface, it captures sheet flow before it spreads into pedestrian or service areas.

The Zurn Z575 uses a rectangular 6" × 12" opening that aligns naturally with curb-line runoff, making it well suited for exterior commercial environments where water predictably follows a defined path.

Zurn Z575 Overview

The Zurn Z575 is a medium-duty gutter drain featuring a Dura-Coated cast iron body, bottom outlet connection, and anti-tilt slotted cast iron grate. This construction provides long-term durability while keeping the grate stable under foot traffic.

  • 6" × 12" rectangular top for linear flow capture
  • Cast iron anti-tilt grate for stable footing
  • Bottom outlet for direct connection to drainage piping
  • Commonly used in exterior commercial and service areas

Installation & Performance Considerations

Proper placement is critical. Gutter drains must be set at the true low point of the surface so water naturally enters the opening. The grate should finish flush with surrounding pavement to avoid trip hazards or debris buildup.

Case Study: Commercial Walkway Drainage Improvement

A commercial facility experienced frequent ponding along a service walkway after washdowns. The existing drain rocked under foot traffic and allowed water to bypass the inlet.

By correcting surface elevations and installing a stable, rectangular gutter drain aligned with the curb edge, runoff was captured more efficiently. The result was a drier walkway, reduced slip risk, and fewer maintenance calls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are gutter drains like the Z575 typically used?
They are commonly installed along curbs, sidewalks, service corridors, and slab edges where water flows in a straight line rather than pooling over a wide area.
What does “medium-duty” indicate?
Medium-duty generally refers to suitability for pedestrian traffic and similar commercial environments. Always confirm load requirements for your specific application.
Why is an anti-tilt grate important?
Anti-tilt grates reduce rocking and movement, improving safety and extending the life of the surrounding concrete or pavement.
