Scientifically Engineered - RAINDROP's uniquely patented design boasts  (23) precise details which combine to provide performance in all types of weather and rainfall amounts. 

Vertical Bars with rounded top surfaces immediately begin separating rainwater from debris and redirecting the water down  into the gutter. By means of gravity and surface adhesion. 

Vertical bar layout allows RAINDROP to utilize the entire gutter width for a maximum water capacity...especially in heavy rainfalls and in roof valleys of high water concentration.

(without "sheeting" or "bypassing" over the gutter)

The bars undersides are tapered.  Water follows water... and a capillary action is created...helping to suction water thru the guard.
Ingeniously adding to RAINDROP's water capacity capabilities.  

MAXIMUM WATER CAPACITY:  The harder it rains the better RAINDROP performs. 

The opening are precisely spaced to create water surface tension between the bars.  This is key element which helps deter the smaller leafs, pine needles & seedlings from entering the gutter.

(in the same manner as a dropped leaf hits and floats on the waters surface tension  of a lake).

RAINDROP's was designed not to try to stop everything, like air-borne dirt & micro debris, from entering the gutter.  To do so would cause either water sheeting, guard blockage, moss growth, and the inevitable and unnecessary periodic maintenance. Instead: assure that the gutters are properly installed or in good condition (no standing water, positive drainage, clear and proper downspouts) and let them do their job as they were intended to do. Then why not allow smaller roof granules/debris, dirt, smaller tree debris to pass and flush out.  Confirm this by checking the area where your downspouts flush to see the debris that does pass thru your gutter system.  This is a design that has been working beautifully as planned for over eight years.

RAINDROP is designed with a    "SELF CLEANING"   benefit  in mind.

       Professionally designed gutters are made with the back 
       side higher than the front edge... this naturally provides
       for a forward slope of the guards surface which any
       guard system needs to even begin to come close to  
       "SELF-CLEANING".     

       RAINDROP does NOT lay flat or is raised up above the roof
       line at any point. This dramatically reduces/prevents  
       debris build-up and gutter clutter at the gutter edge
       which is another fantastic benefit for RAINDROP 
       customers.        

       NO horizontal surface ridges, bumps, pockets or water
       brakes are needed or incorporated into RAINDROPs design, 
       so debris keeps moving towards the gutter edge.

       RAINDROP's smooth, sleek surface provides an
       unobstructed direction for debris to travel to the gutter
       edge where it simply falls to the ground.   

Inefficiency to shed debris causes other guards to build-up debris and therefore create a maintenance issue, guard failure, flammable debris fire hazards, and unsightly "gutterclutter" which all affect the homes appearance and safety.
