An Alu-Rex quote should name the exact model and whether it is being installed with new gutters or onto an existing system. DoublePro, T-Rex and Gutter Clean serve different installation needs; they are not interchangeable labels for the same mesh guard.
In This Article
Alu-Rex DoublePro
The 5-inch DoublePro specification sheet shows a perforated top layer and a lower layer with offset openings. The material is aluminum, not two layers of woven stainless-steel mesh. Check the specification for the size being quoted.
Ask how the installer will handle corners, outlets and access for maintenance. The product specification does not establish the condition of your fascia or the appropriate drainage capacity for your roof.
Alu-Rex T-Rex
Alu-Rex identifies T-Rex as a continuous fastening system for gutters. A quote should use the manufacturer's model name and describe its installation. Ask for a model-specific product sheet rather than a generic description of the material.
Compare the installation purpose
| Product family | Manufacturer-described purpose | Confirm on your quote |
|---|---|---|
| DoublePro | Continuous hanger with dual-layer perforated aluminum protection | Gutter size, exact model and new-gutter installation scope |
| T-Rex | Continuous gutter fastening system | Model, gutter compatibility and protection terms |
| Gutter Clean | Protection fitted to existing gutters | Condition of the existing system and retrofit compatibility |
See the manufacturer's product guide for the product-family distinctions and the current resource library for installation sheets and warranties.
Questions for an Ontario property
Explain which trees surround the roof, where debris collects and whether overflow occurs during rain or snowmelt. Ask how the chosen system will be inspected and how the outlets remain accessible. A gutter guard does not replace an assessment of recurring roof ice or an obstructed underground drain.
What to include in the installation scope
- Exact product name and the gutter runs receiving it.
- Whether gutters are retained, repaired or replaced.
- Cleaning and drainage checks before installation.
- Treatment of corners, roof valleys and outlets.
- Inspection access, maintenance instructions and written warranty terms.
