Are gutterless roofs allowed in New Zealand's building code?
Sorry bit of a lame question. Claude hasn't been able to help super well.
Question is as per title really.
We are thinking about a monopitch build with quite wide eaves and live in Central Otago, so one of the drier regions in the country. Our thinking was it might be nice to use a french drain beneath the one edge of the roof for the occasional times we do get rain.
I can't see much about if this is legal in New Zealand other than constant mentions that make an assumption when you're building, you're adding gutters.
Feel free to tell me why it's a bad idea too if you want.
