When to clean gutters in Enterprise
The first fall frost comes around October 2 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around May 21 (median dates, NOAA normals). Booking the fall cleaning after the first frost, once the trees over the roof are bare, catches the season’s drop in one visit; the spring cleaning comes after the pollen and catkins are down.
When to clean gutters explains how the trees over a roof change the schedule.
Gutter and downspout size for Enterprise rain
What overwhelms a gutter is a burst, not a season. In Enterprise the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 4.12 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 1). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 1,750 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 3,500, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook. Try your own roof in the gutter and downspout calculator, which starts from this figure.
