Lightning rods installed in Fort Myers by WB Lightning RodsWhy Install a Lightning Rod in Fort Myers

Lightning rods are metal poles that are installed on commercial buildings and local homes to protect them from lightning strikes in Fort Myers. If lightning strikes the building, it will be drawn to the rod, rather than the rooftop, where high voltage can travel throughout the building and destroy electronics or cause fires.

Instead of attracting lightning, the rods actually function as the path of least resistance to channel electricity directly into the ground and away from the building or other objects. Well-positioned lightning rods can handle a tremendous amount of electrical currents and divert them from homes and other buildings.

 

Protecting Fort Myers Homes From Lightning Strikes

Lightning strikes are frequent in Fort Myers, and whether a protection system is in place or not, buildings are regularly struck. WB Lightning Rods has helped many residents prepare by installing a lightning protection system in Fort Myers. Lightning strikes the tallest structures in the area, usually houses and trees. When it strikes a structure that is not a good conductor, that structure can sustain massive electrical and/or heat damage.

Lightning rods serve the important function of redirecting electric currents away from homes and commercial buildings, preventing fires and electrical devices from being "fried". WB Lightning Rods has been in the business if keeping properties safe from the damaging effects of lightning strikes for more than 74 years. Highly knowledgeable, the Fort Myers lightning rod specialists at WB Lightning Rods will devise and install a lightning protection system to suit your needs.

Fort Myers Lightning Protection System Components

Houses and commercial buildings benefit from the installation of lightning protection systems in many ways. There are several important components that make up a lightning protection system for Fort Myers residents that WB Lightning Rods regularly installs.

1. Lightning Rods: The lightning rods are positioned at the highest point of the lightning protection system, and serve to take the strike.

2. Lightning Cables: Manufactured from copper or aluminum, the cables attach to the rods and direct lightning strikes into the ground.

3. Grounding Devices: Steel rods that transfer the electricity from the strike deep into the ground, and away from other structures.

4. Fort Myers Surge Protectors: Connected between the electrical conductors and the ground. They are used to minimize the rise in voltage.
