ABSTRACT:
A device for use with guttering, troughs and downspouts which collects water and blocking debris, including a channel open at one end including a chute portion and a pair of side walls capable of being attached to a trough so that the chute portion is aligned with the bottom of the trough and the chute portion slopes downward and away from the trough at its attachment to the trough and the pair of side walls are connected to the front wall of the trough so as to allow water to flow from the trough to the channel, and an outlet located in the chute portion of the channel capable of conducting water from the channel to a downspout, the outlet being displaced between the trough side of the channel and the open end of the channel, wherein the channel and the outlet when used in guttering between a trough and a downspout allow water to be collected by a trough, flow to the channel, flow down the chute, flow into the outlet and then flow through a downspout, while also allowing blocking debris to pass through the channel, over the chute, over the outlet and out the open end of channel while bypassing a downspout.
