Abstract
Disclosed herein are gutter guard systems arranged to efficiently manage the flow of rainwater across the system and prevent the matting of debris onto the system. In one exemplary embodiment, a gutter guard system includes a main body and a screen covering the main body. The gutter guard assembly further includes a front receiver and a rear receiver that secure the screen to the main body. The screen includes at least one feature arranged to manage the flowrate of rainwater across the gutter guard system. In one example, the feature is a raised rounded area that slows the flowrate of rainwater across the gutter guard system. In another embodiment, the screen includes an upwardly angled section and a transition section. Once assembled and installed, the transition section and optionally the angled section forms hurdles that slows the flowrate of rainwater across the gutter guard system.
