Is my roof too steep for the LeafGuard seamless gutter system?
No. LeafGuard works well no matter the pitch of your roof. In fact, the steeper the roof, the better the performance. 7. You mean nothing will get in Englert LeafGuard gutter system? No, most debris gets into an open trough gutter when it is not raining. The Englert LeafGuard gutter deflects dry debris almost entirely. What little debris gets in the system (when it rains), will flush out of the 3X4 downspouts because of the lack of accumulated debris in the gutter.
