What is a "downspout"?

A downspout is a pipe or tube that carries rainwater from a building's gutter to the ground or a drainage system. It is usually attached to the side of a building and directs water away from the foundation to prevent flooding or damage.

Proper installation and maintenance of downspouts are important for effective water drainage and to protect the building's exterior.
