To hang the gutters onto the fascia, you will need to locate and mark the end of each rafter on the fascia board, typically at 24-inch intervals. There are a few methods you can use to hang the gutters:
1. Spike and ferrule method: Install a spike and ferrule combination into the fascia board at each rafter mark. The spike goes through the ferrule and into the fascia board. Hang the gutter onto the spikes, making sure the drip edge hangs into the gutter and not behind it.
2. Hidden hanger method: Install hidden hangers onto the fascia board at each rafter mark. These hangers have a hook that the gutter slides into. Make sure the drip edge hangs into the gutter and not behind it.
Refer to the instruction manual for specific details on the installation process, including the recommended spacing for spikes or hidden hangers, and any additional steps or considerations.
Please note that working above grade can be dangerous, so it is important to follow OSHA regulations and use proper fall protection systems. If you are unsure about the installation process, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional and consult with your local building inspector or permit office for approvals and any specific variations that may apply to your area.
