The Benefits of Gutter Helmet® Compared With Vinyl

By July 2, 2015October 18th, 2023No Comments

So, you’ve decided to say goodbye to cleaning gutters by installing a gutter protection system. It’s a great decision, but keep in mind that not all gutter guards are made equal, particularly concerning their materials. Low quality vinyl is weak to heat, expanding and fading in the hot summer. Invest in metal gutter guards from Gutter Helmet® by Harry Helmet™.

Here is why Gutter Helmet is better than ordinary vinyl gutter guards:

Gutter Helmet is Strong

Gutter Helmet has a special horizontal-rib design that boosts its structural strength. In addition, it can install over reinforced heavy gauge brackets, helping make your gutters stronger. In comparison, plastics like vinyl naturally harden over time, becoming weak and brittle.

Gutter Helmet is Durable

If you want a tough gutter guard in Millersville, Maryland, Gutter Helmet can meet your needs. It will stay rigid and stable when installed. It can also withstand heavy loads of ice and snow without damage. It is immune to moisture and rust, which is important as a system should perform under heavy rain.

In fact, Gutter Helmet works wonderfully even up to 22 inches of rainfall per hour. That’s twice the highest recorded rainfall in the US. Finally, unlike plastic, metal does not react when in contact with asphalt. Plastic can be softened and weakened when asphalt leeches into the plastic cells.

Gutter Helmet Stays Beautiful

Thanks to its wide selection of colors, Gutter Helmet can serve as a great highlight to your roof’s design. Unlike low quality vinyl, it won’t fade under the scorching summer sun. PermaLife™ is our special coating that is guaranteed to not fade, crack, peel, or chip. It also doesn’t require repainting.
