Answers to the most Frequently Asked Questions:
Does it cause ice to build up?
Our gutter is designed to shed any solid material that lands on the hood, without clogging or impeding the centripetal flow of water through the gutter. Icicles may form on the gutter because the gutter is designed to shed any solid material off the hood enabling the gutter to catch and drain the water properly. Eventually the icicles will naturally melt away do to an increase in temperature or direct sunlight, without causing any clogging or damage to your gutter. Neither debris nor ice will prevent the Englert LeafGuard gutter system from functioning properly do to its excellent design.
