Another Gutter Filtration Product

This past week, we cleaned out the gutters at a home in Lancaster with a gutter filler type product.  This sponge like product fits into the length of the gutter and is designed to filter out larger debris to keep the downspouts clear of clogs.


It actually performs fairly well as far as keeping debris out of the gutters.  It has a similar downfall to the waterfall type covers.  The filter slows water flow as it has to be strained through the sponge like filter.  If water run over during heavier rains doesn't bother you, then this product would work.  If you are looking to have your spouts flow during every rain, consider routine maintenance of the gutter system instead.
