  • Patent number: 8631610
    Abstract: A system for attaching gutter protection systems to roofs having shingle/tile like style. A roof clip is adapted to be positioned under a shingles such that a tab extends vertically upward through a keyway between two adjacent roof shingles. The tab receives and secures an upper end of the gutter protection system. The tab is folded over the gutter protector and secured to the based of the roof clip through the keyway.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7389619
    Abstract: A venting system that is incorporated into the roof and/or wall allows the same to provide continuous air flow to ventilate the roofs and walls and prevent condensation build up and ultimate water damage to the structure. The venting system is adapted to allow air flow around air flow obstacles contained within the walls or roofs, such as, for example roof joists, and/or floor and ceiling supports in walls. The venting system can provide air flow around in wall obstacles by channeling in air from the outside or carrying air around the obstacle from within the wall or roof itself. The channeled venting system can be incorporated into the roof and/or wall sheathing and thereby is not prone to blockage by improper or amateur insulation installations.

  • Publication number: 20050034377
    Abstract: A water diverter for gutter protection systems is provided. The Water diverter is positioned on the structure side of any curved surface of the gutter protection system. The water diverter acts to slow the speed of the water running off the roof and over the gutter protection system. This slowing of the water speed allows the Coanda Effect of the curved surface of the gutter protector to function to direct the water into the water collecting opening of the gutter. When the water is traveling too fast (e.g., running from a steep roof, or a roof valley), the surface tension of the water generated by the Coanda Effect on the curved surface of the gutter protector is insufficient to direct the running water into the water collecting opening of the gutter.
