What to Know About Leaf Guard

For people who have had to clean out their home's gutters a lot, there are some remedies that will make this no longer necessary. With Lea Guard, it's possible to direct water one way while the leaves, twigs, and debris are directed to another destination. The shape and components of the Leaf Guard system get water to flow into the gutters while leaves and other solid items are sent to the ground instead of the gutters. Leaf Guard isn't a system that uses a screen over the gutters.

With a screen, small pieces of debris can go into the gutters and still clog them up. With Leaf Guard, the angles of the system resent this from happening. When people have this gutter system installed in their homes, it means no longer having to get out the ladder and clean out the gutters. This saves you a lot of time and means less risk to you of accidents. It's helpful to have this system so that the gutters will continue to run clear instead of getting clogged up. A clogged gutter will result in standing water inside the gutter, and this can rot out the gutter system as well as part of the roof.
