Gutterpumps

Internal gutters and rain can mix
 
(+1, -1)

So, a lot of homes these days are selling for 1$.

On top of that a lot of older homes are selling for just a little bit more. And these older homes have slumped internal gutters or just slumped gutters due to one or more centuries of earthquakes and flood rains shifting the structure.

This is a product consisting of a solar panel, a battery, a pump and a couple hoses that, given enough pooling at input A, propells the lot, out to output B.

It may not save the house. But it may buy a few years.

Drop a gutterpump in your gutter today!

       Are bad gutters really so expensive to replace and so dangerous for a house?

       Internal gutters can hold a threateningly Damocles like pool of water over critical structural elements.

       Why can't you just fix the gutters though?

       //Would you buy that for a dollar?//   

       If it means you own the site, and the site is desirable, you could just scrap it all, or at least rip the top off - and build something more sensible.   

       But if the place has centuries of earthquakes to deal with, maybe just live somewhere else.

       Next time that somebody I know is being a doofus I'm going to say' "Quit being such a Gutterpump."
