How do gutter covers differ in getting water into the seamless gutters?
How they differ is the front part. The first type of gutter protector ever invented was a single fin, a single vane; it has a single vane all the way across the front. This is present in both Gutter ? (the one we can’t mention), and Elko Gutta-Guard. Water from these protectors comes off the top surface, adheres to the rounded front surface, and goes into the gutter. Literature that describes these products gives the impression of the debris being jettisoned off, when in reality the debris often sticks to the surface, and goes into the gutter. Around the early 90’s, the single vane design was improved with the next generation of gutter covers which in addition to the single vane contained troughs with sieve opeinings. The goal is to keep a lot of the tree debris from getting into the gutter systems. But realistically, if you have debris adhering to the nose, it’ll get into the sieve trough and cause a problem there, right?. Sure the debris that gets into the gutter may not be as large
