Gutter grille
GreenLife's gutter guard is the perfect filter for rainwater. Whether the water is collected in cisterns or rain barrels, plant debris such as leaves and twigs can reduce water quality. It is therefore always recommended to pre-filter rainwater as thoroughly as possible, starting right at the gutter. Leaf guards filter rainwater Especially in the fall, when trees shed their leaves, it can be very frustrating when heavy rain causes leaves to enter the downspout and thus the rainwater tank. Not only does the quality of the collected water suffer from the debris, but it can also quickly clog the downspout. Cleaning often involves a lot of effort. Therefore, always use a leaf guard. Potential problems without a leaf guard Clogged downspouts Blockages in water hoses or showerheads Discoloration of the water Reduced water quality Staining of the gutter Breeding ground for pests With this simple leaf guard from GreenLife, such problems are a thing of the past. Assembly is incredibly easy, and cleaning usually requires nothing more than a hand brush. The gutter guard also provides reliable protection against birds. They can no longer nest in the gutter and must find other places to settle. Can I filter the rainwater even further? Yes, because the gutter guard is only a pre-filter. Depending on the type of your rainwater harvesting system, you can also use downspout filters, built-in filters, or tank-mounted filters. In addition to these mechanical filters, the patented Biovitoren for cisterns can also be used. These are biological filters that require very little maintenance. Installation of the gutter protection grid Installing the gutter guard is very straightforward. Each package contains segments for approximately 3.00 meters, which simply slot together. Depending on the width of the gutter, the guard can be folded. It fits any standard gutter size.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVG8j1yDEMM
