Abstract: An improved rain gutter apparatus is arranged to include an elongated and flexible inner contoured surface element formed with outwardly extending projections on both sides thereof and being completely wrapped in an outer covering material with a multitude of openings. When positioned within a rain gutter, rainwater flowing along the gutter is directed into and along water channels formed by the projections. An end of the apparatus is bent so as to extend a short distance into the downspout associated with the gutter thereby ensuring uninterrupted flow of rainwater therein. The covering material prevents the intrusion of leaves and other debris from entering the water channels so as to ensure clog free flow of rain water.
