Based in Washington State, LeafFilter's team at LeaflessInSeattle.com understands the problems inherent in many modern gutter drainage systems. Similar products rely on reverse curve science from the 1890s and fail to update designs based on current innovations and today's understanding of physics. These design lapses lead to clogging because water carries debris into the gutter. Through the work of Edward A. Higginbotham, LeafFilter avoids this problem with the specially designed, self-cleaning XELA FilterShield, which does not allow particles of less than 50 microns to pass through and thus can never clog. Developed to induce high-speed siphoning, LeafFilter stops pollen, mold, and gummy materials from getting into or otherwise harming a gutter.

On a “Keeps the Stuff Out” scale, LeafFilter more than doubles the rank of its nearest competitor. While other companies might cite seed pods as the smallest items their products prevent from entering a gutter, LeafFilter keeps out much tinier pieces, such as fir needles and sand. Because of the holes’ size, the XELA FilterShield essentially filters the water that comes off the roof to keep your gutters and drains clog free.

Made from external-grade PVC, LeafFilter is constructed with components that are designed to resist the deteriorating effects of the sun and lasts for decades. Consumers also benefit from LeafFilter because it may be installed onto many gutter types and can match a house in color and style.
