A data center is built so that no single failure can take it offline. Lightning is one of the few events that can reach every system at once.

The roof equipment, the utility service, the generators and the telecom lines can all be hit by the same surge. Protection has to treat the building, the grounding and the surge protection as one system.

A hospital cannot close because a storm is coming.

That changes what lightning protection is for. It is not only protecting a roof. It is keeping emergency power, nurse call, alarms and the patient record running while the weather is at its worst.

All South Lightning Protection has completed 16 hospital projects across Florida.

A month ago, FOX 13 Tampa Bay came to our Tampa warehouse with the question homeowners were asking after a run of lightning fires in the Bay Area: can I protect my house?

The fires in that story hit commercial structures, apartment buildings and a high school gym. A house takes a strike the same way, through the roof, and the protection is the same engineering scaled to a home.

Our Senior Executive Vice President, Chuck Voight, put it simply on air: "It can keep your house safe from being damaged, even when you're sleeping."

A lightning protection system does not attract lightning, and it does not stop a strike from happening.

What it does is give the strike a planned path. Air terminals on the roof intercept it, conductors carry it along the roofline and down the side of the house, and a grounding system disperses it into the earth. Without that path, the current finds its own way through framing, wiring and plumbing.

It is also not a surge protector. Surge protection at the electrical panel is a separate layer, and a complete residential system includes both.

A school campus is not one building. It is classrooms, a gym, an auditorium, and an athletic complex where students are outside on open fields and metal bleachers.

Lightning protection has to account for all of it. The buildings need a complete system, the stadium lights and press box need to be grounded and bonded, and the fire alarm and intercom need surge protection so they keep working during a storm.

All South Lightning Protection brings 40+ years of experience to Florida school campuses.

The summer storm pattern is fading, and for most Florida homeowners that is when lightning drops off the list of things to think about.

It should not. Florida sees more lightning than any other state in the continental US, and the exposure on a house does not reset in October. Fall fronts still bring storms, and next summer arrives on schedule.

The quieter months are the best time to plan protection, because the work gets designed and installed before the season that tests it. All South Lightning Protection brings 40+ years of experience to homes across Florida.

Most buildings that need lightning protection are already standing.

Retrofitting an occupied building is a different job from designing for new construction. Conductors have to work with finished surfaces, grounding ties into an electrode system somebody else put in, and none of it can compromise the roof.

It is routine work when it is done by people who have done it before. All South brings 40+ years of experience on Florida buildings.

The most common reason homeowners rule out lightning protection is that they think it will be visible.

On a well designed residential system it mostly is not. The air terminals are low profile and the conductors follow the lines of the house.

For a waterfront Florida home full of connected systems, the cost of protection is a fraction of what one event costs.

A lightning protection system is not maintenance free, and September is when a Florida summer has already tested it.

Fasteners loosen, connections corrode in salt air, and conductors get moved or removed during roof and mechanical work without anyone realising what they were part of.

Each one is small. Together they break the path the system depends on.

There is a difference between a lightning protection system that is compliant and one that has been certified as compliant.

A UL 96A Master Label means the design, the components, the installer and the finished installation were all checked, and the label is issued by a third party rather than by the company that did the work.

For owners and insurers, that independence is the whole point.
