How does KGuard perform under snowy and icy conditions?
Very well, KGuard will withstand virtually any snow, ice or wind condition, making it a superior product for homeowners in the Canadian climate. Most people may not realize that with conventional, open-top eavestrough systems, ice will form on the inside, where you cannot see it. The resulting freezing and thawing literally pries your eavestrough off your home. With KGuard, ice forms on the outside of the eavestrough, rather than inside. Plus KGuard is stronger than both traditional eavestrough, and other covered eavestrough systems, so you can be sure that no amount of snow or ice will pull our product off of your home. In addition, our system’s rear drainage channel helps prevent wind-blown water from backing up under your roof’s edge and freezing, so the potential of ice damming is far lower than with other eavestrough systems.
