Abstract
A gutter cover, components thereof, and associated methods. The gutter cover is configured to be installed over a gutter to prevent debris from entering the gutter. The gutter cover can be made of a webbing material having openings through which water can pass. The gutter cover includes features that facilitate water penetration through the gutter cover for the water to enter the gutter. For example, the webbing material is formed to define a diverter protruding upward and extending lengthwise along the gutter cover body. The diverter has a peak, a rear leg extending upward and forward toward the peak, and a forward leg extending downward and forward from the peak. The rear leg is steeper and shorter than the front leg such that the rear leg defines a water impact surface configured to break surface tension of water flowing along the top of the gutter cover.
