Place Gutter & Downspout

Automatically place gutters along selected roofs—or specific roof edges—then place downspouts by clicking a gutter and a downspout fixing point. The add-on sets size and position automatically.

Works with Archicad 25–29 • Windows and macOS

Fast gutter placement

Create gutters around roofs in a few clicks.

Auto-set key parameters

The add-on calculates and sets key parameters (size and position) to match the selected roof edge—and you can open the Archicad object settings dialog for full control.

Downspouts that fit

Select the gutter, then click the wall fixing point; the add-on sets size and placement automatically.
