Todd,
There are only a couple of manufacturers of reticulated foam in the US. The sun does not like plastic. It never has. Especially dark colors, like black, which you just happen to have in your GutterFilter. The sun will eat it up. Also even if the leaves blow away, the smaller debris like oak tassles, pine needles, helicopters, shingle grit, will all work their way into the filter. Sponge products are not maintenance free. Far from it. I know. I can see how they accumulate on the product because its a shelf. The general public does not look upon foam filter inserts as a permanent solution either. They will work for a few years, yes, however the sun will win the war. |
