In Episode 3, we take a deep dive into each of the gutter guards we’re testing. You’ll get a close-up view of each system as we highlight the differences and similarities between the gutter guards. We’ll also share our professional insight, describing what we know about the gutter guards. This will give you some helpful insider information even before the tests begin in earnest.
Our blog article, Ultimate Gutter Guards Challenge 2021: Test setting and gutter guards we’re testing, goes into much greater detail about each of the gutter guards. It’s definitely worth the read in addition to watching the video!
The gutters are located on the north and south sides of the garage. The front of the garage faces east and the rear faces west. All the gutter guards have been installed and are positioned as follows:
North side of garage; Position 1-6, west to east:
- MasterShield Micro Mesh
- LeafFilter Micro Mesh
- LeafSolution Micro Mesh
- LeafLock Micro Mesh
- GutterGlove Easy-On Micro Mesh
- Semco Screen Mesh (Referred to as Clean Mesh and MicroScreen in videos)
South side of garage; Position 1-6, west to east:
- MasterShield Micro Mesh
- LeafFilter Micro Mesh
- GutterGlove Pro Micro Mesh
- LeafLock Micro Mesh
- Diamond Micro Mesh
- LeaFree Solid Gutter Cover
We elected to test three of the gutter guards – MasterShield, LeafFilter and LeafLock — on both sides of the garage. The other gutter guards are installed on either the north or south side of the garage.
For the systems that are on both sides of the garage, you will quickly learn how the same gutter guard can perform differently on the same home (or in this case, garage).
