K Style Gutters & Half Round Gutters

GUTTER HANGER SELECTION

In deciding which hanger style is most acceptable, please consider such things as appearance, expected life, ice loading, size of a gutter or gutters, material and expansion.  When fascia board is less than 2" thick, the hanger fasteners must be driven into the rafter ends.
In areas subject to snow slide, coordinate the front edge elevation

RECOMMENDED GUTTER PITCH AND POSITION ON THE EAVE

There are two factors that go into determining gutter position on the eave, the pitch of the gutter and the roof slope.
Gutter should be pitched 1/16" or greater per foot for proper drainage. Gutter can be run level for appearance but addition downspout will be necessary
Gutters should be placed below the extended roof line
