Gutter and downspout size for Redwood rain
Gutters are sized for the worst few minutes of a storm, not for the year. In Redwood the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 9.29 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 11). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 780 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,550, 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.
The houses in Redwood
Half the homes in Redwood were built by 1990, 19% before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). At that age a gutter has seen decades of leaves and storms, and the fascia it hangs from has too.
76% of households own their home, and 30% of homes are detached houses, 3% townhouses. Where an HOA governs the exterior, its rules on gutter color and style apply before any order is placed.
