Residential lightning protection systems are installed to safeguard homes and occupants from the destructive effects of lightning strikes. Here are some reasons why getting one might be advisable:

Protection of Property: Lightning strikes can cause extensive damage to a home’s electrical systems, appliances, and electronic devices. A lightning protection system can help prevent these damages by providing a safe path for lightning to travel to the ground, thereby reducing the risk of fire, power surges, and equipment damage.

Safety of Occupants: Lightning strikes can also pose serious risks to the safety of people inside a home. A properly installed lightning protection system can mitigate these risks by diverting the electrical current safely to the ground, reducing the likelihood of injury or death due to electrical shock or fire.

Insurance Benefits: Some insurance companies offer discounts or incentives for homeowners who have lightning protection systems installed. This is because these systems reduce the risk of lightning-related damage, resulting in fewer insurance claims.

Peace of Mind: Knowing that your home and loved ones are protected from the dangers of lightning strikes can provide peace of mind, especially in areas prone to frequent thunderstorms.

Preservation of Electronics and Appliances: Lightning strikes can cause irreparable damage to expensive electronics, appliances, and other household equipment. A lightning protection system helps safeguard these investments by minimizing the risk of damage during storms.

Compliance with Building Codes: In some areas, installing a lightning protection system may be required by building codes or regulations, especially for homes located in areas with high lightning activity or in areas prone to wildfires.

Overall, while the upfront cost of installing a residential lightning protection system may seem high, the potential savings in terms of property damage, insurance premiums, and most importantly, safety, make it a worthwhile investment for many homeowners.

Lightning protection systems (Lightning Rods) are designed to help prevent damage and potential fires that lightning may cause. This is done by reducing the flow of electrical energy (lightning) traveling through flammable building materials in structures.

A standard Lightning Protection System is comprised of Strike Termination Devices (air terminals or the rods) along the ridges, flat-roof portions and perimeters. These lightning rods are interconnected with specialized lightning protection conductor cable coursed throughout the building and terminating at grounding locations, a grounding cable to carry the positive charge to the ground through a grounding or termination rod.

Optionally it is also recommended to install a surge suppressor to isolate the expensive home electronics from an electrical surge caused by the lightning strike. The surge can occur even if the lightning does not strike your house.

Hamilton Rods can retrofit to your existing home or conceal all wires during new construction.
