Size Of Seamless Aluminum Gutters
In some regions, smaller width seamless aluminum gutters are commonly used, but wider gutters are gaining popularity. Seamless aluminum gutters are also available in larger sizes, which are often used for industrial or commercial applications.
The difference between gutter sizes lies in their capacity to hold water. If your area frequently experiences heavy rainfall and you notice that rainwater consistently overshoots your current gutter system, a wider gutter system might be the most suitable option for your home.
In addition to climate, several factors are crucial in determining the appropriate gutter size for your home. These include the roofline, surface area, and pitch of your roof. Another cost-effective approach is to use different gutter sizes within the same system, particularly for areas that require higher capacity.
Gutter Sizes & Volume Capacity: Is There a Standard Size?
Breaking the Mold: Reshaping Standard Sizes
The standard size for residential seamless gutters is influenced by the region of the country, as well as the size and style of the home. Homeowners are increasingly opting for larger gutters, often choosing sizes of 6 inches, 7 inches, or even 8 inches, which are considered “oversized.” Although a 6-inch gutter is only one inch larger than a 5-inch gutter, it can handle a significant increase of 40% more water. In certain situations, larger or “oversized” gutters may be necessary for the entire home or specific sections of the roofline.
