Free gutter covering available to residents of Orinda and Moraga
By Sora O'Doherty
The Moraga-Orinda Fire District board of directors on Nov. 15 approved a continuation of the home hardening grant program. MOFD received a new shipment of "Gutterglove-Leafblaster Pro" gutter covering just in time for the rainy season. These stainless-steel guards are designed to minimize the accumulation of leaves and debris that will become combustible material in the dry months. Having gutter coverings can protect your home from damage due to flying embers in the fire season. They will also help prevent your gutters from clogging with leaves and reduce the need for maintenance during the rainy season.
The material will be distributed from the MOFD Fire Station 41, 1284 Moraga Road on Fridays, Jan. 12 and 26 from 3 to 6 p.m. and Saturdays, Jan. 13 and 27 from 10 a.m. to noon.
Please do not apply if you cannot pick up the material on one of these days. Unfortunately, MOFD staff and volunteers are only available to distribute the materials on the days and times listed.
Information and an online tool to determine the quantity of material you will need, installation instructions, material specifications, and how to contact a contractor to complete your installation are available online at www.leafblaster.com/moraga-orinda/
District residents can receive this material at no charge by completing the request available online at https://forms.gle/qzJ4hsQ29sfxQhFr8.
