Step 2: The basics in every installation Clean out your gutters: Take the time to clean the leaves, pine needles and other debris from your gutters and downspouts first. Also, complete any necessary repairs to your gutters and downspouts. When installing your new gutter guard, make sure to obey your local building code. Ideal Gutter Guard Slope: The ideal slope of the gutter guard is between 5 to 25 degrees.

Step 2.1 Step 2.2 Clean: Use a mixture of 1 part 70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol and 4 parts water to wipe off front lip so it is completely clean. Allow to dry completely. Straight Sections: Peel off a few inches of the red strip. Slide section under roof shingle. Once gutter guard is in the desired position, pull off the remaining red strip. Push down firmly by sliding finger along top. Step 2.3 A B Mesh extends slightly past the ends of each section.

Step 2.4 Cover end of gutter C D Cut the front and rear frame with new or freshly sharpened tin snips so the mesh is free to tuck inside the gutter to cover the opening. SPECIAL NOTE: The rear frame (C) is shorter in length than the front frame (D). This ensures they do not overlap, causing the shingles to lift. Slide excess mesh down and inside gutter. This caps off the end to keep debris, birds, rodents and insects out. Step 2.

Step 2.6 Outside corner of gutter Push rear frame down in gutter. Mark overlapping portion of adjacent section and trim off. Step 2.7 Cutting sections F G Cut both sides of the front frame and rear frame with tin snips. If unable to cut all the way through, it is fine to notch them (F & G), then snap them in two. Cut through the mesh with the tin snips. Other install techniques Flat bars used to lift up roof shingle. Flat bars used to hold up roof shingles.

How to bend the mesh Bending the back of the mesh allows the gutter guard to be installed on all gutter and roof configurations. All you need are two 1” x 2” boards 4.5’ long and two 4” clamps. Choose a board that has square edges. A square edged board will put straight creases in the mesh when you bend it. Bend the mesh up or down depending on your installation.

Maintenance & Helpful Tips How do I keep my new gutter guard at peak performance? Your new gutter guard is designed to be easy to maintain. Follow the tips below for easy maintenance. 1. Periodically inspect your gutter guard for any debris that may not have blown off. Particularly where two sections of roof come together (valleys) or in areas that are protected from wind. 2. Brush off any accumulated debris. We created “The Gutter Guard Brush” for just this purpose.
