Lightning Protection

Print VersionBookmarkEmail this page to a friend.
Installing a lightning protection system is not a do-it-yourself project, but it is very important in protecting your home from the massive damage lightning can cause. Systems vary, but they all consist of an air terminal on the roof that is connected by a copper or aluminum conductor to a 10' grounding rod driven into the ground. Have it installed and inspected by a certified specialist.
