Gutter Stuff

The original foam filter insert

Proper Installation Procedures for Gutter Stuff

All gutters to be fitted with Gutter Stuff should be thoroughly

cleaned out, all leaves, debris, and roof grit should be removed and

the gutters washed out, if possible.

All downspouts should be cleared of any obstruction, especially

where there are elbows.

All gutters should be checked to ensure that they are properly

sloped towards the downspouts. All Spikes and hangers should be

securely tightened. Hangers should be added where needed.

Insert Gutter Stuff into the gutter so that its narrowest point, (the

sharpest angle) is tucked under the front lip of the gutter. Gutter

Stuff® should run to the back of the gutter completely filling the

space across the top of the gutter then turn at a 90º angle to sit

snugly on the bottom of the gutter.

Slide the Gutter Stuff into the gutter under each spike or hanger,

then, tuck the front edge of the material under the lip of the gutter.

Place the material sections into the gutter one piece after another

making sure there are no gaps between sections. Miter the corners

when gutters make a change in direction.

A knife or scissors may be used to cut the material, if needed, at

the end of each run. Do not stretch the material to make it fit as it

will shrink back to its original form and leave gaps.

NOTE: Some gutter straps, like those that are called “Hidden Hangers” are positioned in the gutter at a lower point making it difficult to push the foam under the strap. In this situation you will make a “T” cut into the foam so the foam can straddle the strap (like riding a horse). The cut will start on the bottom of the foam and cut up towards the top (the part of the foam filter facing the sky) without cutting all the way through the foam.
