Not rain gutters, but something....
I've decided that my new house doesn't really need rain gutters. I'm in
Southern California, get very little rain except in the winter, have no basement, and have substantial eaves draining water away from the exterior walls. However... my front porch has a small roof of its own, probably no more than four feet in depth. It's just shallow enough that people standing on the porch waiting for the door to be opened are exposed somewhat to the dripping off the porch roof. I don't really want to put a raingutter on my porch roof, but I would like something to sort of divert the sheets of water from the center front edge of the roof. Is there some sort of device that would divert or funnel water rolling down the roof away from the center edge, letting it pour off the left and right edges of the porch roof? And if there is such a thing, what's it called? | ______________ | | / \ | | / ? \ | | -------------------------------- | | || ----- || | | || | | || | | || | *| || | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jim Beaver |
