This homeowner noted that he was having overshooting on one part of his Waterloov Gutter Cover system. This is a rare, I mean a rare issue.
Upon arriving at his home we found that he had an upper gutter discharging onto a lower roof with the water draining down the roof about ten feet to a lower gutter covered with the Waterloov Gutter Protectors. Normally with that distance (10 feet) the water spreads out sufficiently but in this case for some reason the water was channeling as it flowed down the roof.
The solution was easy--we installed a direct pipe (a leader from the discharge elbow of the upper gutter direct to an elbow inserted through the top of the Waterloov Gutter Covers below. This will be an improvement that:
1. will keep water that's been clarified in the upper gutter from washing roof debris onto the gutter covers below.
2. will keep the roofing from being worn from the continuous flow of water in one area.
We left a happy customer with our reputation intact.
In the next posting we'll look at fine micron mesh gutter covers.
