My personal experience with installing gutter covers:
As a business owner work in the RI, Ma & Ct area I want to provide products to my customers that will not only satisfy there needs, but will also save my company time and money from having to return to unsatisfied customers homes to unclog there gutters . We've tried so called reverse curve systems like Gutter Helmet * and Leafguard *. We spent almost $9000.00 on a machine to make covers almost identical to Gutter Helmet * but with in 6 mouths customers we're calling us back with complaints. The problems we identified were built up gook on the nose of the frnt curve of the Leafguard preventing water from flowing around the curve into the gutter. Also the rain would pick up debris and the debris would flow with the water, around the gutter helmet curve and into the gutter clogging the down spouts. The cure that Leafguard & Gutter Helmet have for this is to put a large 3x4 commercial down spout on which is costly, looks too big on the home, and the debris that flow down the 3x4 down spout would clog underground french drains. We also had small birds squeeze threw the small Leaf Guard opening and nest inside the gutters , bees nesting inside, damaged roofs from lifting the shingles to install the gutter guards , and complaints about the size of the system taking away from the curb appeal of there homes. We also tried the cheaper mesh type covers , but these system would collapse with the weight of snow and clog almost as quickly as a gutter without covers . The reason for this is the small debris like pine needles and maple seeds can get threw the small hole and even a small amount of this debris can make a "rats nest' type clog over the hole for the down spout . We were just about ready to give up on gutter guards when I discover Leaffilter . Leaffilter system with a stainless steel filter solved all the above problems. It is also installed flat on top of the gutter so there were no more damaged roof, it almost can't be seen from the ground and a stiff breeze is all it takes to blow of most of any leaves that may sit on top. We've been installing Leaffilter covers for over five years now and we no longer have any angry customers.
