IMPORTANT SYSTEM INFORMATION
BASIC TYPES OF GUTTER PROTECTION SYSTEMS
Strainer type systems
Louver type systems
SURFACE TENSION TYPE SYSTEMS (GUTTER HELMET)
MATERIALS USED
Plastic
Vinyl
ALUMINUM (GUTTER HELMET)
WHAT MAKES SYSTEMS FAIL!!
Clogging of the system (Not the gutter)
Strainers - the openings fill up
Louvers - the slots tend to fill with debris
Some Surface Tension systems have restrictions between their nose and the gutter
These can clog
Systems not being able to handle winter weight loads - Snow and Ice
Plastic flexes and bends easily
Vinyl flexes and bends easily
Aluminum - can be made to handle the most extreme conditions
GUTTER HELMET - has a textured surface, structural ribs and brackets
every 2 1/2 feet to make it almost indestructible!!
Systems not being sealed
If a system is not tight - sealed, it is common for animals to make nests under the system.
Birds - Squirrels etc.
GUTTER HELMET has sealed end caps and a very tight gap between the gutter and the
HELMET
GUTTER HELMET - HAS SURVIVED THE TEST OF TIME !!!!!!
Why Settle for less than the BEST!!!
