“We decided to replace our home improvement gutter guards because they didn’t completely work. After looking at many gutter systems we chose LeafFilter for two main reasons: 1) They will keep ALL items out of the gutters 2) They have a lifetime warranty. The team was very professional and the installation happened quickly. The LeafFilter system looks great and of high-quality material.”

“Product Performance – The product was installed on a second house we own about 2 months ago. Our first house has Leaf Guard gutters on it. Recently, we had a rain storm that dropped about 2” in 40 minutes. The rain overpowered the Leaf Guard gutters but the LeafFilter Gutters performed flawlessly.”

“The product seems great and installers were awesome. Cleaned and leveled gutters. Reattached every few feet. Glad to not have to worry about cleaning anymore. I had them remove the mesh guards I put up years ago as they were only marginal. Salesman was super knowledgeable as well.”

Fort Collins’ Climate Challenges

Fort Collins Weather Tests Gutter Systems

At 5,003 feet elevation, Fort Collins experiences dramatic seasonal shifts that challenge gutter systems year-round. From heavy spring snowmelt to intense summer thunderstorms, and fall leaf accumulation to winter freeze-thaw cycles, the city’s unique mountain-influenced climate requires robust gutter protection to prevent water damage and maintain proper drainage.

Spring

Spring brings rapid snowmelt combined with frequent rains, averaging 2-3 inches monthly. Local pine trees shed pollen and seed pods, creating potential blockages that can compromise gutter performance.

Summer

Fort Collins’ afternoon thunderstorms can dump over an inch of rain in under an hour, testing gutter capacity. Strong winds often carry debris from nearby natural areas into gutter systems.

Fall

Fall winds from the foothills scatter leaves from local maple, ash, and pine trees across Fort Collins properties. These natural materials can quickly accumulate in unprotected gutters, disrupting proper water flow.

Winter

Fort Collins averages 55 inches of snow annually, with frequent freeze-thaw cycles that can stress gutter systems. Accumulated debris can contribute to problematic ice formation within gutters.

Did You Know?

Based on Fort Collins’ ~15 inches of yearly precipitation, a single story 2,000 sq. ft home gutter system will handle over 18,705 gallons of water annually.

Fort Collins’ Tree Canopy – Gutter Challenges

Fort Collins’ unique blend of plains and mountain ecosystems creates year-round challenges for gutters. LeafFilter’s 275-micron micromesh technology is specifically engineered to handle Northern Colorado’s diverse tree debris, from cottonwood seeds to pine needles. Without proper gutter protection, these varied species can quickly lead to clogged gutters and potential water damage.

Native Plains Trees

Majestic Plains Cottonwoods and American Elms dominate Old Town and City Park areas, releasing cotton-like seeds in spring and leaves in fall. LeafFilter’s proven system prevents these materials from creating dangerous clogs in your gutters.

Colorado Evergreens

Ponderosa Pines and Blue Spruce, prevalent in western neighborhoods like Timber Lane, shed needles year-round. Our micromesh technology is engineered to prevent these fine needles from entering your gutters while allowing proper water flow.

Ornamental Species

Popular in Warren Lake and Old Town neighborhoods, Honey Locusts and Crabapples create multiple seasonal challenges. LeafFilter is engineered to prevent spring blossoms, seedpods, and autumn leaves from entering your gutters.

More Information on Gutter Guards in Fort Collins

Your Complete Guide to Gutter Protection

Different Types of Gutter Guards Explained

Brush Guards

Brush-style guards in Fort Collins present maintenance challenges with local Ponderosa pine needles becoming lodged in bristles. The intense UV exposure at higher elevations can degrade the bristles’ durability. During spring thunderstorms and winter snow events, these guards may impede proper water flow, potentially leading to overflow issues.

Foam Inserts

Foam insert guards can be problematic in Fort Collins’ variable climate. The material tends to deteriorate under high-altitude UV exposure and requires periodic replacement. These inserts can retain moisture during snow events and create favorable conditions for seed germination from local cottonwood and maple trees, leading to maintenance concerns.

Screen Guards

Basic screen guards typically struggle with Front Range weather patterns. Their larger openings allow small debris like pine needles to pass through. Heavy spring storms and snow loads common to Northern Colorado can cause these guards to become loose or misshapen, compromising their effectiveness.

Reverse Curve/Hood Guards

Reverse curve systems may experience challenges during Fort Collins’ intense summer thunderstorms, as water can sometimes overshoot the guard during heavy rainfall. The covered design makes it difficult to inspect gutter conditions and can complicate maintenance. Winter precipitation may create additional performance considerations.

LeafFilter’s Micromesh Technology

LeafFilter’s surgical-grade stainless steel micromesh is specifically engineered to handle Fort Collins’ unique challenges. The 275-micron fine mesh blocks even the smallest debris while utilizing surface tension to maximize water flow. Unlike other systems, our uPVC frame never deteriorates in extreme temperatures, and our pitched design prevents debris accumulation common to other guard types.
