Such a simple solution, just a regular PVC adapter that can prevent tons of headaches in the future.
What happens here
After the 'Y' adapter is securely installed, ensure the entire downspout assembly is firmly re-attached to the house siding. Use existing downspout straps and fasteners, or install new ones if needed, to hold the downspout plumb and stable against the wall. Check all connections for stability and make any necessary adjustments.
Goal: Ensure the downspout is securely fastened to the house.
