When it’s not freezing outside and snow on your roof melting away, snow melt gradually comes down the roof and can slide across the mesh and off your gutter. If that happens and you have concerns about this, you should remove the gutter guard in those areas. This anomaly of snowmelt runoff can happen with all gutter guards.
