If you're tired of dealing with
complaints about clogging and
overflow in the gutter and downspout
systems you install, consider
replacing them with the Rainhandler.
Instead of catching runoff
from the roof, each 3x60-inch section
uses seven 3/4-inch aluminum
fins to break water falling off the
edge of the roof into droplets. The
fins are angled like louvers to guide
the water away from the fascia and
disperse the droplets evenly onto
the ground in a 3- to 5-foot band.
Available in natural, white, or
brown, the sections snap into aluminum
brackets that should be
screwed to the fascia at least six
inches below the edge of the roof.
Rainhandler costs about $4/lf and
can be ordered from Savetime
