Gutter Pro™
Gutter pro has been developed and engineered to remove rainwater running off your roof at a rate of 7" per hour. Not bad. Gutter Pro is similar to Gutter Helmet because the panels fit over your existing gutters without installing bulky hardware inside of the gutter. Gutter Pro boasts of its three uniquely angled surfaces that slow the speed of the water on each surface. This is an interesting design, but here is where the comparison to Gutter Helmet begins to stray. The top of the Gutter Pro panel is spotted with specifically sized and placed holes. They claim that the purpose of the holes is to allow water to enter the gutter from the roof. However, any gutter protection system that has openings, especially facing upward, is liable to problems.
The problem is that over time mud, gunk, and pine needles can clog the small holes on top of the gutter pro gutter protection panel. What is the danger of these holes clogging? The answer is that rainwater cannot filter into the gutter completely. Instead, the rainwater has to flow off of the roof, eroding your landscaping and even threatening your home's foundation.
Gutter Helmet provides the best protection for your home because the Gutter Helmet panels have no horizontal openings. The only opening on the Gutter Helmet system is a 3/8" slit that sets right below the lip of the panel. Gravity prevents the opening from clogging, and surface tension directs rainwater into the gutter. Gutter Helmet is the only gutter protection system that can truly say, "You'll Never Clean Your Gutter Again!"
