The Science Behind Gutter Helmet®

By October 10, 2017October 18th, 2023No Comments

Your gutters are constantly exposed to harsh elements that affect their service life. External materials, such as leaves, twigs and other debris can cause clogging issues that are detrimental to your gutters’ performance. The smart way to eliminate this problem is to add a gutter protection system. Chattahoochee Gutter Co., Inc. offers Gutter Helmet®. This product has garnered the best gutter guard reviews over the years. Here’s the science behind it:

Surface Tension

The secret behind Gutter Helmet is surface tension. Surface tension is what happens when liquid connect to one another. One way to observe this phenomenon is to hold a glass under a running faucet; note how water clings to the surface. Furthermore, this principle explains why insects or paper clips can float on water.

Gutter Helmet has a textured surface and a nose-forward design that stretches past your gutters. By using the concept of surface tension and gravity, these unique features guarantee that water clings to the surface as it moves downward. Debris harmlessly falls off the ground as water safely enters your gutters through a narrow opening.

Other Features

Investing in a high-quality gutter guard can help you prevent unexpected repair and maintenance costs. Gutter Helmet has outstanding tensile strength to withstand heavy downpours. It is specially engineered to hold 22 inches of rain per hour, exceeding the highest amount of rainfall ever recorded in the U.S. Its aluminum alloy brackets keep the system intact. In addition, it is backed by a Triple Lifetime Warranty that covers materials and product performance.

Moreover, this line of gutter protection system can enhance your exterior design while protecting your home from potential water damage. It comes with a PermaLife™ finish that resists chalking, fading and corrosion. It is available in different colors to complement your style.
