A Consumer Reports video comparing the different types of gutter guards has shown that among various types of gutter covers, fine mesh gutter covers work best. However, the video didn’t quite do other gutter covers, such as surface tension gutter shields, justice.
In this article, Gutter Helmet of Michigan highlights the features of Gutter Helmet and why it’s actually the superior gutter shield.
Patented Nose-Forward Design
This unique feature utilizes the principle of surface tension to keep debris out while letting rainwater into your gutters. The best part? Leaves, twigs, pine needles and other junk will just fall to the ground, so you don’t have to climb up a ladder just to clean your gutters. In the video, surface tension gutter covers did poorly in directing the water flow into the gutters. But did you know that Gutter Helmet is designed to handle up to 22 inches of rain per hour. That’s more than twice the amount of rainfall ever recorded in the U.S.!
Textured Surface
Since it’s made out of lightweight but durable aluminum and attached to your roof with reinforced aluminum brackets, you can count on your Gutter Helmet to be able to handle torrential downpours, heavy snow loads and strong winds.
Permalife™ Finish
Gutter Helmet is painted with a patented high-performance paint finish that is resistant to fading, chalking and corrosion due to acid rain and salt water. PermaLife paint comes in a wide range of colors that complement your home.
