 Gutter Helmet Review

I have never used them but like Murf have seen them in action and agree with his comments fully.

We have lots of pines in our area. I think the gutter helment for the most part has been an idea that never grain ground here.

It seems the local gutter guys who have been here for years have gone to the large commerical down spouts to give room for the pine needles to just run down the spout with the water. If you don't have a true pine forrest around your house it seems to work.

BTW, at least some companies have pipe with elbow to use on leaf blower to clean dry leaves and it will work on dry pine needels some while on the solid ground. Has worked well for me.

 Gutter Helmet Review

Ken,

A leaf blower in the bottom end of the down spout can clean them out some. The better seal around the leaf blower pipe the better job. Of course this is not a full clean out.
