THE COMPLETE HOW-TO GUIDE TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE AND STYLE FOR YOUR HOME.

SELECTING THE GUTTER STYLE

When it comes to figuring out what type of gutter is on your house, it is important to understand the different types of gutters that are out on the market. Predominately, there are three main categories for gutters: K-Style, Half Round, and Fascia

K-Style

  • K-Style gutters are the most common style of gutters in the residential market.GutterFoam-EZ-Half-Round-4-ft-Foam-Filter-Plastic-FIG (1)

Half Round

  • Half Round gutters have been around for years, prior to the invention of the K-Style gutter, half round gutters were the most commonly used gutter-styleGutterFoam-EZ-Half-Round-4-ft-Foam-Filter-Plastic-FIG (2)

Fascia

  • The Fascia gutter style comes from fascia boards, which are used to cap the ed of the rafters ouside a building. Generally, K-Style and Half Round gutters have to be attached to fascia boards, however, Fascia gutters do not need to be. They eliminate the need for that fascia board, allowing for an inexpensive gutter design (typically used in California). Fascia gutters have a longer backside then the topside.GutterFoam-EZ-Half-Round-4-ft-Foam-Filter-Plastic-FIG (3)

SELECTING THE GUTTER SIZE

When determining the size of your gutter, it is important to keep safety in mind. When getting up to your gutter, make sure that the ladder is secure and is tied off. Once by the gutters, it is necessary to take two measurements. These are shown below as side A and B.

Fascia

Fascia style gutters vary in size so drastically that there are no standard size gutters. Therefore, GutterFoam has developed an easy to use system for ordering custom made GutterFoam for Fascia gutters.GutterFoam-EZ-Half-Round-4-ft-Foam-Filter-Plastic-FIG (6)

Simply measure Side A (the backside of the gutter) and Side B (the top side of the gutter). GutterFoam size to purchase is the one that matches both of your dimensions. If your size is not listed on our website, we can custom cut as Fascia sizes can widely vary.
