Gutter cleaning system with gutter cleaner and plug resistant downspout cap

Abstract

A gutter cleaning system for cleaning an overhead gutter or the like for residential and commercial buildings. The gutter cleaning system is comprised of the gutter cleaner and plug resistant downspout cap. The gutter cleaner comprised of two pulleys mounted one on each gutter end, cord and a debris pusher slidably placed on the floor of the gutter. The pusher includes a slider body having a directionally pivotal pusher plate on one end and a cord tension spring on the other end. The cord is attached the pusher body and placed around the gutter end pulleys to make a continuous loop. The gutter cleaner is operated from a fixed gutter end location. The plug resistant downspout cap, having the top opening areas narrower than the inside areas of the downspout pipe, is placed over and in the downspout opening. The pusher body in the gutter cleaner slides over the cap top and the pusher plate mounted in the front of the pusher body will sweep the debris on and around the downspout opening areas and prevents the downspout pipe from clogging. In this manner, the full straight length of the gutter will be cleaned of debris with each application of the gutter cleaning system.
