ABSTRACT:
A water diverter that diverts water flow from under siding or external fascia on a building to the environment in regions adjacent a portal, such as a window, door or vent. The water diverter includes a first wall, a base joined with the first wall, and an outer wall joined with the base. In an upper portion the first wall, base and outer wall form a collector that collects water flowing along a building wall or the portal structure. In a lower region, the first wall, base and outer wall cooperate to define the channel. The base may be angled or curved outwardly from the building wall to divert water away from the building wall and into the channel. Preferably, the upper portion is disposed under siding, and the lower portion is disposed on the exterior of the siding so that water travels from under the siding to the environment, downwardly along the portal structure.
