Gutter guards can greatly reduce the risk of gutter problems and protect your home from water damage. However, some homeowners worry that installing gutter guards could void their roofing warranty. In this blog post, Gutter Helmet® Systems of Alabama, the top choice for new gutters systems in our local area, sheds light on this question.
Will Gutter Helmet Void Your Roof Warranty?
Gutter Helmet is the number one gutter protection system in the country. It is designed to protect all kinds of gutter systems and it can be installed on all kinds of homes. Fortunately, top roofing manufacturers including GAF and CertainTeed have vetted and approved the Gutter Helmet installation process, which means installing this product won’t void your roofing warranty.
Gutter Helmet Features
Gutter Helmet completely covers your gutter system, leaving no vertical openings for twigs, leaves or other debris to enter. Rainwater can still enter your gutters through a small horizontal slit, however. This is because Gutter Helmet takes advantage of the principle of surface tension. When it rains, water sticks to Gutter Helmet’s textured surface, follows the curve of the gutter cover and then enter the gutters through the horizontal slit.
Debris piles up on top of the gutter cover and is eventually washed away. Gutter Helmet is made from high-quality metal and it is installed with heavy-duty aluminum gauge brackets, which also serve to strengthen and support your gutter system.
