When to Use A Style Ledge Jumpers on Downspout Runs

What an A-style ledge jumper does

An A-style ledge jumper is built to create a clean offset so your downspout can clear a ledge (brick lip, trim detail, foundation bump-out) without crushing the tube or turning it into a kinked mess. This one comes 12 per carton and is offered in multiple colors so you can match the job.

When you should use one

Use an A-style ledge jumper when:

  • The wall has a projection that forces the downspout out and back
  • You need a consistent offset that looks like it belongs there
  • You want to reduce time spent “making it work” with field bends

Color and pack details

  • 12 per carton
  • Available in 15 colors

Installation checkpoints (the stuff that prevents callbacks)

  • Keep the run plumb above and below the offset
  • Avoid pinch points at the transitions
  • Strap placement matters: strap above the offset and below it so it doesn’t flex
  • Plan the discharge: don’t fix one problem and create another at the bottom

A-style vs B-style

  • A-style: use when the offset geometry matches your clearance and you want a clean, standard solution
  • B-style: use when the job demands a different offset profile (different clearance/shape)
