Questions & Answers

What does 5K mean for the foam gutter guard?
ByMay 17, 2023
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Thank you so much for the question. The 5K is an industry standard term that refers to 5" gutters that are normally used for residential. 6K is the larger 6" gutter used more frequently for commercial. I hope that helps!

    Can these be used with de-icing cables in cold weather?

    Answer This Question

    I know this is a late response. It all depends how warm the cables get. Urethane foam can withstand fairly high heat exposure, but if it is concentrated heat and left for extended periods of time, then I would not recommend it. Thank you!

      I wouldn't think so, it's a plastic type material.

        The gutter guard itself will not deteriorate. It will however fill with debris. I think we used ours over 5 years before replacing them.

          This is a tough question to answer definitively. It is a great question though. So much depends on the geographical area you live in and the weather cycles. It is a true range. The expectation is that you would get at least 3 to 4 years for sure. We have heard of some users getting over 8 or 10 years. We simply can't guarantee that and we can't guarantee how all users have installed these.

            How do these hold up to winter conditions like snow and ice?

            Answer This Question

            I am on my second set of these covering about 8 years and I've never noticed a change caused by snow and ice. Maybe I'm just not observant enough.

              Hey Gary, thank you so much for the question. These hold up just fine to snow and ice. They actually fill the gutter, so the weight of snow and ice do not adversely affect their usefulness. Ultimately, the snow and ice will melt through the foam and they will continue to work just as when installed.

                Will this work on a 4" standard gutter as well?

                You can trim down the front edge very easily with scissors. I did that on some of my gutters where the fit was a bit tight and the top of the guard would not be flat.

                    No, they won't fill the gutter which is how this particular kind works.

                          During winter, will snow and water build up in the mess creating a risk of excess weight and damage to the gutter. Or backing up under the surrounding roofing?

                          I honestly don't know, haven't been through winter yet. But the pine needles build up on top and have to be cleaned off, they don't blow away as I had hoped.

                            Works Well for Many Years
                            I installed the Gutter Pro foam product in my gutters about 8 years ago and it's still in reasonable condition (see pic in gutter) although now starting to degrade. After 8 years of use it's fairly clogged with the small debris and it's time to install a new set. It has done a great job of shedding leaves and other larger debris. Smaller stuff either goes through the foam or is caught in the foam. In general, the gutter flow area underneath the foam is free of debris and flows the rain water and small debris freely. And because the cell size in this product is larger than the GutterStuff cell size (see pic showing comparison of the two), it is much better at keeping the rain flowing through the foam and not getting clogged. Pine needles do collect on top of the foam so you need to blow them off about 2-3 times per year. This is easy using a leaf blower (we use a blower along with a 10' gutter downspout having a u-shape gutter piece on the end to blow off the gutters from the ground - see pic of blower setup). Bottom line, nothing is perfect but this larger cell foam is the best I have found at keeping out leaves and pine needles while still allowing the full flow of rain through the gutters (and doing it for 8 years!).

                              Instead of a drain spout coming off our gutter, we have a decorative copper rain chain. Prior to getting this foam wedge, we were constantly having clogs at the top of the rain chain. This product has so far (about a month) kept debris from entering the top of our rain chain. It does still catch some leaves and straw at the top of the foam so I did not go with 5 Stars. Easy to install, so should be easy to wash out when needed. We can see the product from the ground, only when upstairs looking out window.

                              Just installed 32' of Gutter Pro. I will be surprised if lasts a single season. The quality just doesn't appear to be there nor was the fit that snug or secure. I would not recommend this product.

                                water flows freely through this product, if you don't like climbing ladders these can be pushed into the gutter easily no hardware needed. i am well pleased with this product.
