Rain Gutter Cleaning Tip. It’s all about the Outlet. Keep the outlets clean and water will always flow out of your gutters… even if there is debris in the rest of the gutter.
If an outlet is clogged water will NEVER flow out of that gutter, even if there is NO debris in the rest of that gutter… that’s a fact.
Check out www.TheSpoutOff.com to see how you can keep your outlets clean in less than 1 minute, no climbing, no tools… all from the safety of the ground. -- Kevin Leahy

Cleaning Gutters - Use a Pressure Cleaner. A nozzle fitting on a hose pipe at mains water pressure can be used if you do not have a pressure cleaner, Unfortunately there will be a mess to clean up on the ground afterwards.
Clean around the outlet hole by hand then spray away in the opposite direction. - Use a bundled up piece of rag to stop the dirty water running back towards the outlet - Karim Devji
Subject: Avoiding Blockages in Gutters. I obtained some perforated galvanised steel and cut a square about 5 inches by 5 inches, hammered it into a curve to fit the curvature of the guttering and placed it over the outlet hole. Never had a problem since -- Andy Blocke Swindon UK
