Make Spring Gutter Clean-up Easier and Safer
(ARA) - Owning a home may be a dream, but taking care of it can be a nightmare. Across the country, spring is prime time for clean-up and home improvement projects. Often postponed are outdoor chores like raking leaves and mowing the lawn, but most despised is the job of cleaning gutters. Each year, millions of Britons climb ladders to rid their gutters of gunk accumulated during the fall and winter months.
For homeowners like John Manos from Liverpool, anything that makes spring cleaning easier is a welcome relief. "I don't mind raking leaves too much -- but I'd be more than happy to never have to climb a ladder and clean out clogged gutters again."
Manos found a way to keep his ladder in the garage this spring in Englert LeafGuard, which keeps debris out while channeling water away from the home. It is a seamless, one-piece aluminum complete gutter system -- not just a metal screen attachment or simple cover device -- and it is guaranteed not to clog with leaves, pine needles or other debris for as long as you own your home, or the company will clean your gutters for free.
The key to the system is its unique patented design. Based on the scientific principle of "liquid adhesion," the design draws rainwater down and around its hood until gravity and the water's weight cause the liquid to fall into the gutter. At the same time, leaves and pine needles simply pass over the gutter and fall to the ground, preventing backed up water that can rot a home's fascia board and soffits or promote leaks that can cause interior damage.
LeafGuard's clean, streamlined design also protects a home's exterior finish, landscaping and foundation from water damage. Available in 13 colors, it also adds an aesthetic element to its functionality. To ensure an accurate fit, the system is custom-fabricated right at the installation site, usually in a day or less.
