3 ft. L x 5 in. W Flex Fit Aluminum Gutter Guard with Stainless Steel Micro Mesh (25-Pieces Equals 75 ft.)

What would you consider working well? It will continue keeping leaves and sticks out of the gutters. Snow and ice will stay on top of them till the temperatures outside allow it to melt, but they are strong enough to hold the weight if enough hangers were used when installing the gutters . But that's what's going to happen to any gutter guard. I think it depends more on the angle of the roof and the angle of the guard in relation to it that will allow the snow to slide off, or keep it trapped . You could run some heating wire for roofs or pipes inside the gutter, under the guards and that would melt any accumulation pretty quickly. Just make sure you put it down the downspout too, otherwise it will just spill over when the downspouts freezes up. I know this doesn't help too much, just thought I'd share my learning curve with having them on my gutters.

No, generally not. There may be a few that get in the screen, but it's fine enough that most needles will not penetrate it.

I'm not sure, but I've got a bunch of singles left over I would sell you cheap. highbankshomeimprovements.com

Water will not run over the edge. The mesh is designed to put a stop to that.

They look like the same design as Atlas gutterguards, but I don't know if they are made by them or the same supplier . The metal on both sides, if it is stainless I'm not sure, is thick enough where it takes a little effort to cut with aviation snips but I don't know what gauge it is. A little thinner than 1/16th". They are the most sturdy well built ones I've installed, and over the last couple years I've searched for the best ones on the market as I've installed hundreds, if not thousands of feet of them for my customers.

Killian Global Corporation. Thank you.

Hello Larry, We have never heard of this with our product ever! We have the most precise and advanced machinery available in the world. We produce and ship massive amounts of gutter guards each and every single day. I see your question is in regards to the Flex Fit product that goes under your shingles. So if your butting the front edges to one another and overlapping the mesh how are you noticing a 1" gap under the shingles? The back edge is protected by your shingles. That 1" inch gap that you say your seeing will not effect the function of the gutter guard. We will look into this as we strive to ensure the satisfaction of all our customers. I can for certain and without doubt assure you that it is not in any way faulty machinery. We appreciate your question and we apologize for the annoyance as you had stated in your question.

yes.

It will take on all the water that nature gives! It has a very high water flow rating.

They work extremely well with Pine needles! Pine needles at times will lay on top and as they dry will mostly blow off. It doesn't hurt to once a year take a blower or a brush and just ensure the guards are free and clear. Either way these guards will work perfectly and take on all the water nature gives it while keeping your gutters free and clear of debris.
