You can use a gutter brush guard and then place the lids back on top of your ACO drain.. or a channel drainage leaf and debris trap. You could always then fill the ACO with 20m stones after using the trap. Hope this helps.. need anymore information on your outdoor space please contact us @luxurylandscapes2021 also on Instagram
