Gutter Downspout Opening Noise Multiple Streams Of Water

Stuffing stuff inside the downspout will only clog it one day anyway.

Gutter downspout opening noise multiple streams of water.

Change the downspout angle. The trick to quieting down this irritating noise is to attach something to the bottom of the downspout on the inside to absorb the water as it drips or trickles down. It is however not an appropriate solution where heavy rainfall occurs. Angling the ends of your downspouts further away from the house will help water flow seamlessly down without dripping and splashing.

It makes noise lots of it. The water pouring onto your roof creates a soothing white noise that clears your mind and calms your soul. A downspout chain basically replaces the biggest part of the gutter by hanging it along the gutter downspout opening and allows the water dribble to move down the chain effortlessly without making a noise. The problem is not the water coming down the problem is the sound.

The sound of trickling or gurgling water can be soothing but water clattering through a downpipe like a handful of marbles just let loose can be annoying. But there are ways you can quiet a noisy downspout. Bang on it with a drumstick. Absorb the water.

If you have a window near your gutters and downspouts the persistent clunk clunk clunk or thud thud thud of rain hitting metal may wake you up rather than help you drift to dreamland. So my solution is to kill the sound. That is until your gutters and downspouts join in. If you have metal downspouts and they drive you crazy when it rains you might think that there is nothing you can do about it.

This can be achieved by putting a scrubber sponge a square of artificial turf a section of shingle or a foam downspout insert into the bottom of the downspout opening.
