LeafGuard gutter design is based on the principle of liquid adhesion. Water molecules cling to each other and the surface on which they rest such as the unique LeafGuard hood. Rainwater is drawn down and around the underside of the LeafGuard hood where the accumulated water weight, caused by gravity, forces the water to fall off into the gutter. LeafGuard has tested successfully in laboratory-simulated conditions to handle rainfall of 21" per hour-well above world records for rainfall. |

Yes! The curled hood-end adds centrifugal speed to rainfall, propelling it rapidly into the gutter. Laboratory testing has proven LeafGuard gutters to perform well even when subjected to a simulated torrential downpour of 21 inches of rain per hour, which by far exceeds the maximum rainfall expectancy in our area of less than 1/2 inch per hour.

Snow slides easily off the high-gloss hood, which also prevents damaging ice build-up, a common occurence with open gutters. |
