Give blocked gutters and drains the brush off with a no-nonsense solution from Easy Innovations
There’s an old saying that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication and if a product can liberate us from one of life’s less agreeable tasks then it certainly holds true. Cleaning gutters is hardly a job that anyone relishes but, with the prospect of a blockage causing damaging water overflow, it is equally something that can’t be ignored.
Thankfully, an uncomplicated, effective and easy to install device promises to keep them clear for years. The award-winning, British made, Hedgehog Gutter Brush has been designed to prevent leaves clogging gutters and drains. It’s hard wearing, easy to fit and comes with a 10-year guarantee. Nor do you need pricey gutter cleaning tools – you just fit the brush into the gutter and let it work for you.
There’s no specialist knowledge needed to install a Hedgehog Gutter Brush. Once fitted into a clean system, leaf clogged gutters and drains become a thing of the past, although the manufacturer recommends cleaning every couple of years in areas where dense deciduous trees are in evidence. It should also be noted that – as with any gutter guard – the Hedgehog Gutter Brush will not prevent silt build up in guttering or the growth of vegetation resulting from drifting seeds.
So just how does it work? A stainless-steel wire core and polypropylene bristles come together to create a durable and long-lasting brush that the manufacturer promises to be virtually indestructible. In addition, with standard dimensions of 4mx100mm – and 50mm to 200mm diameters available – it’s suitable for 95 per cent of household gutters. Brushes in dimensions of 50mm are suitable for most greenhouse gutters, whilst 200mm will be for use in commercial gutters. The 100mm & 125mm brushes come in a choice of black, white or brown.
When it comes to the fitting you’ll quickly find the brush will do the work for you. It automatically adapts to the shape of any gutter in minutes, whilst it can be easily cleaned if necessary. The same product can also be made use of as a pathway drain brush.
An essential companion to the Hedgehog Gutter Brush is the Hedgehog GutterClip, which keeps the former securely in place in gutters regardless of how challenging the environment. That includes low hanging, flat roofed, gutters with no tile nose overhanging, and those located in high wind areas. These handy clips are sold in packs of 20 sand manufactured in a clear UV resistant plastic.
