Every year, you spend time standing on a ladder clearing leaves from the gutter, and each time, you think that there must be a better, more efficient way to get this done. There is, and it is a unique gutter guard known as Gutter Helmet®. This system is the easiest way to keep leaves from clogging and damaging your gutters and downspouts.
Let Gutter Helmet Systems Pittsburgh discuss what makes this the leading leaf guard in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania:
How It Works
Gutter Helmet comes with a set of unique features that work together to keep out not just leaves, but also twigs, seeds and pine needles. They include:
- Nose-Forward Design. This patented system creates a smooth curve over the gutter troughs and extends past the edge for a natural flow. Once the water rounds this edge, it passes through a 3/8”-wide slit while leaves and debris slide off.
- Ribbed Surface. This increases surface tension so water clings to it as it flows into the gutter. A practical way to understand this concept better is to hold a glass under a running faucet; the water will cling to the surface as it flows down into the sink, instead of splashing away at first contact.
Other Unique Features
Gutter Helmet is not the premier leaf guard in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, just for the reasons listed above. Here are other features that cement its spot at the top:
- Heavy-Duty Mounting Bracket. Thanks to this system, Gutter Helmet can handle the weight of up to 22 inches of rain each hour. The highest recorded rainfall amount in the country is only eleven inches each hour, which means Gutter Helmet is more than able to handle whatever Mother Nature dishes out.
- Permalife™ Finish. This high-performance coating protects against fading, chalking, and corrosion from acid rain and salt water. It is available in a wide array of colors to complement your home’s roofline.
Gutter Helmet comes with a lifetime warranty, which means you never have to clean your gutters again! Call us today at (800) 824-3772 for a free quote. You can also fill out our request form and we’ll contact you shortly.
