Gutter Helmet – What is Reverse-Curve Technology?
Keeping your gutters clean, free of debris, and fully operational in our Wisconsin climate requires a well-designed, complete gutter system. It’s simple enough to add gutters to your eaves, but an investment in a product like Gutter Helmet can help to protect that gutters system for years. Gutter Helmet is an innovative product that uses a reverse-curve design that utilizes the principles of surface tension and gravity. There is finally a product on the market that allows you to kick your feet up on the weekend instead of risking it all fishing old leaves out of your gutters. That product is called Gutter Helmet.

Gutter Helmet Design

The Gutter Helmet product includes a textured surface which rainwater clings to as it flows downward. The cover has a curved nose that extends past the edge of the gutter, yet it enables rainwater to flow naturally into the gutter system thanks to water surface tension. Gutter Helmet’s reverse-curve gutter guard system offers four primary benefits.

  • Prevents debris clogs
  • Ensures open channel rainwater runoff
  • Prevents damage to the roof, gutter and structure of the home
  • Long-lasting, Low-maintenance

Effective Debris Shedding

When the rainwater reaches the edge of the Gutter Helmet system, it goes through a small gap between the helmet and the gutter. This stops debris, leaves and objects from entering gutters and clogging gutter systems. Only water can pass through this gap. The debris falls to the ground or blows away, instead of clogging up the gutters. This also minimizes clean-up after storms or other natural events where a lot of leaves, twigs and debris typically fall on roofs and gutters.

The Gutter Helmet system can handle over 22 inches of rain per hour without overflowing, which is twice the amount of the highest precipitation rate ever recorded in Madison or Milwaukee.
