Your gutter system channels water away from your home. The system’s design, however, makes it vulnerable to clogging due to leaves, dirt and other debris. While you can remedy this through regular maintenance, you can also invest in cleaning your gutters with gutter guards, particularly Gutter Helmet®. This high-quality gutter protection system prevents your gutters from clogging.
The Use of Surface Tension
Imagine a typical gutter protection system, such as gutter mesh. It has vertical openings, but this design leaves the gutter exposed despite its ability to filter out dirt and debris. Even the smallest particles can still pass through the mesh openings, increasing the likelihood of clogging.
This won’t happen in gutters covered with Gutter Helmet. It has a unique nose-forward design and a ribbed surface that takes advantage of surface tension. Here, rainwater running off the roof makes its way to the gutter protection system, clinging onto the surface and passing through the narrow horizontal slits. With this design, no debris and leaves can enter the gutters and form clogs.
The Other Features of Gutter Helmet
For Gutter Helmet to perform well, it is installed with reinforced aluminum brackets. These components enable the gutter protection system to withstand heavy rain and snow loads. It also has a PermaLife™ finish applied on the surface to ensure protection against the effects of corrosion and normal wear and tear. The coating comes in a variety of color choices, allowing homeowners to complement their roof.
