A Simple Solution to Gutter Clog Problems
Cleaning the gutters is not just a fall activity. Rain gutters can also become clogged with debris during spring as trees litter roofs with leaves, seed pods, buds, and flower petals blown by the winds of spring storms. It is not uncommon for home owners, especially those who live in areas frequently visited by storms, to clean their rain gutters at least four times a year. For this reason, many home owners are searching for a miracle product that will lessen, if not completely eliminate, the need to clean their gutters. Some are even convinced by salespeople to spend thousands of dollars for great gutter cover designs that claim to be clog proof. However, many customers have discovered that the simpler and cheaper gutter protection products such as the Leaf Defier gutter guard can be the best solution to their gutter problems.
Just like in installing any gutter covers or gutter protection products, the installation of the Leaf Defier foam inserts requires cleaning the gutters first. This may be the hardest and the most dreaded part since, depending on how great the clog problem is, gutter cleaning can be messy and even dangerous if one is not careful when working while on the roof or the ladder. However, the gutter cleaning before the Leaf Defier installation may be the last time one will perform such extensive gutter cleaning.
After the clogs are removed and the gutters are clean, the installation of the foam inserts is a breeze. One just has to push the product down the gutters to form a snug fit and the job is done.
