gutter guards

Leaf channel covers

Gutter guards are covers or screens installed over roof gutters to prevent leaves, debris, and animals from clogging the drainage system while still allowing water through.

They come in various designs—mesh screens, foam inserts, surface-tension covers—and reduce the need for manual gutter cleaning: We installed gutter guards after the third time I had to scoop out wet leaves.
