Why American Aluminium Gutter is the Best Rain Gutter

Aluminium gutters are known for their durability as well as their aesthetically pleasing exterior. But there are many benefits to choosing aluminium gutters for your property. To help you make an informed decision, here are some reason to choose aluminium gutters

Durability
As aluminium will not rust it is a perfect choice for the long term. It is designed to withstand punishment from any type of weather. Aluminum is extremely durable and has an expected life-cycle of about 60 years, depending on maintenance. This makes them extremely cost-effective too.

A timeless aesthetic effect
The appearance of aluminium gutters is extremely beautiful which makes it the perfect rainwater system for a huge variety of properties, from old country houses to modern new builds, aluminium gutters would not look out of place.


Wider range of colours
Aluminium gutters often come ready made in many different colours. An aluminium gutter is not prone to colour bleaching which can be caused by exposure to the sun and therefore will keep looking like new throughout its life-cycle.
Aluminum gutters can also be easily repainted, so there’s no need to worry about getting stuck with just one colour.

Will not sag, warp, flake or crack
Another great advantage is that aluminium gutters will not shatter or crack due to temperature changes. It is not at all affected by thermal expansion. In addition, it is often available in a seamless style guttering which prevents any leaks and unsightly joints.

Aluminum Gutters Are Lightweight
Aluminum is so lightweight and strong, it continues to function perfectly year after year without unsightly dips that occur over time (in PVC) that can cause overflows and damages to the building.
Aluminum gutters works perfectly in areas with heavy and constant rainfall. It does not allow water, leaves and other debris to build up weight which is recipe for disaster.

Very little maintenance
Apart from the regular cleaning out of dirt from the gutters there is usually very little maintenance required. This will be a welcome feature for most people as there is no need to worry about leaks.

Seamless Gutter Options
Aluminum is also the best option for seamless gutters. Going seamless is the best way to ensure that rain water is carried safely away from your home without leaks, breaks, or seams that can split causing the need for costly repairs and replacements.
Leaking seams are the primary cause for mold, and mildews.

Aluminum gutters have higher flow rate
Depending on where you live, heavy or constant rainfall can be an issue if your gutters size is too small. A strong, long-lasting rain can create a high volume of water that can get backed up in other gutters types that are not designed to function in areas of heavy precipitation.
Aluminum is such strong material, it often has a wider channel, and high flow rate allowing it to carry much more water safely away from your home.

When you think about having a rain gutter installed on your property, you may start asking which type of materials to choose, and you see yourself in front of your devices staring at a wide list of materials and styles of rain gutters available, feeling completely overwhelmed and confused after reading all that information, and in the end you still have the same question in your head; which one is the best material for my rain gutters? Don't feel bad if this is happening to you; this is not an easy situation for a homeowner, since not all the information you find on the Internet comes from a reliable source, and this interferes with making a good decision when it comes to rain gutters.

You can find plenty of different rain gutter types, materials and sizes(http://raincache.ng/gutters/types-of-gutters-and-costs/), however, it's not about which one of them is the best or the worst; it's about which one works best for you, since every material has its advantages and drawbacks, and it is important for you to evaluate some aspects when choosing the right material for your rain gutters.

The weather – for example – is a feature that will determine which material of rain gutter is the most suitable for your home, if you have a hot weather where you live, you can not install the same rain gutters as if you live in a snowy or rainy place. This means that the material that would work for some people, will not necessarily work for you.

In this post, we will discuss one of the materials that have become very popular among homeowners and builders in Nigeria, the PVC/Plastic/Vinyl Gutters. This is a synthetic man-made material, resulting of the ethylene (found in crude oil) and chloride (found in regular salt) combination, which after being processed together, form Polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

Here, we present some good reasons why you should choose PVC gutters:

Low Cost:
One of the reasons PVC gutters are currently very popular in Nigeria is their low price; you can find in the market all the PVC rain gutter parts and accessories for an affordable cost compared with other materials. However, there are a lot of cheap versions that are made of a lower quality plastic, which are more prone to get cracked and they just last for a while; so be careful because what's cheap turns out to be costly. Another benefit of this type of material, regarding its low price is the maintenance; you don't need to spend too much money in regular maintenance services since PVC gutters when well installed, they don't require many cares.

Simple Installation:
PVC gutters are designed to be easily installed, they come in sections that snap together at the joints; this makes them very easy to manage for both installers and homeowners. Compared with others, PVC is do-it-yourselfers' favorite material because of their combination of practicality and ease; they perfectly fit together at the joints, and their lightweight allows you to carry them up and down the ladder without problems. Despite how simple it may seem, we always recommend looking for experienced rain gutter technicians to avoid poor installations that would end up in costly repairs.

Low maintenance required:
Unlike metal gutters, PVC gutters are made of PVC plastic which never corrodes or dent throughout the years; they also have the same color inside as outside, so they don't require painting because if they scratch, it wouldn't be as noticeable as it would be on metal gutters. You only need to frequently clean debris and leaves that fall inside the gutters, or you can use a leaf net to avoid clogs in your drainage system.

In summary, PVC gutters are a great product in term of cost and ease of installation. The only draw-back with PVC gutters is their durability in harsh weather. If you live in a place with extreme weather, PVC gutters are more likely to flake, get cracked and easily break part resulting in leaks.

If you live in the tropics (e.g Nigeria), where there is more exposure to sunlight, PVC gutter may not be the best for your property if you are thinking long term, because of UV degradation due to exposure to high temperatures under the sun (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_degradation )
Heavy rains can also make PVC gutter to sag or bend eventually, so in order to get the best of gutters you need to consider this important variable.
