Downspout Debris Filter

Downspout Debris Filter — Let Leaves and Grit Flow Through

Leaves, shingle grit and pine needles wash down your roof. GutterGate's hinged door lets debris flow through while keeping pests out.

Debris at the outlet causes backups

The problem GutterGate was built to solve.

Leaves pile at the downspout exit and block water from draining.

Clogged outlets force water back up and over the gutter, damaging fascia.

Trapped debris rusts the pipe edge and creates sharp burrs.

Downspout Debris Filter — Frequently Asked Questions

How is a downspout debris filter different from a gutter guard?

Gutter guards keep debris out of the top of the gutter. GutterGate's hinged door lets leaves and debris flow through the bottom outlet while keeping pests out — it won't prevent all clogs, but it won't block water either.

Will the filter itself clog?

GutterGate's hinged door is designed to let debris flow through, not trap it. If debris ever collects, the cap pops off in seconds for a quick clean.

What size do I order?

Compare your downspout opening to a credit card: card bigger than the opening = 2x3, card smaller = 3x4. Round pipes use the 4" Round cap.
