Protect Your Gutters With Gutterbrush
Gutter Supplies' GutterBrush from Floplast is a gutter protection system that is a simple and cost effective way of keeping guttering free from leaves, moss and other debris. It is extremely flexible, simple to fit and is virtually maintenance free.
What is exactly is GutterBrush?
GutterBrush comes in a 4m length - the same as most gutter profiles. It is essentially a filter that consists of many thousands of small polypropylene filaments that are connected to a central wire spine made of stainless steel. The spine is very flexible - in fact it is so flexible that GutterBrush is packaged and delivered in boxes of tightly wrapped coils.
Maintenance Free Design
Because is made from high quality polypropylene and stainless steel, the main constituents are long lasting and essentially maintenance free. Polypropylene is a strong and durable type of plastic, and stainless steel is a proven material that can withstand all climates and temperatures. All that is required is a wash down of the filaments with a hose or pressure washer once a year to remove any debris that is stuck between the filaments.
Installation Process
Installation is simple. First, remove all debris from the gutter, leaving the inside clean and clear. Then uncoil the GutterBrush and lay it in inside the guttering, making sure that it fits snugly under the roof tiles or slates. To join two lengths of GutterBrush, simply butt the ends of the wire spines together, leaving no gaps. When you come to the last piece, use a pair of snips to cut the spine to the exact length required. Gutter Supplies also recommend that whilst you are installing the GutterBrush you should also install leaf balloon guards to protect the downpipes - at a couple of pounds each these fittings are a relatively small investment and they add an extra layer of protection to your rainwater and drainage system. After all it is much easier to maintain a well-protected gutter system than it is to remove debris and blockages from an underground drainage pipe!
Fits all Domestic Gutters
GutterBrush is made with black filaments which cannot be seen from ground level, so it works equally well in all colours of gutter. As the profile is so flexible it can be installed in any type of domestic gutter system including Ogee and Deepflow profiles.
