This product is designed to sit on top of the chute, covering the gap between the downspout and the chute, completing the Nordic system's sleek and savvy look. It fits outside of the downspout and can easily be moved up or down should you need to remove the chute for any reason. It also fits directly into the 4" ground pipes. Remember to place the lower downspout bracket with enough space left down to the DTE so you can move it up when needed. Also end the downspout halfway down into the DTE to allow it to move up.
