Re: house fire in poinciana
This is a very sad story, and we are relieved that no one was injured.
Recently two of our neighbors had lightning/grounding rods installed on their roofs (ran about $2500 I think). I haven't seen them on any of the buildings owned by The Villages, such as the rec centers, etc., and wonder how effective they would be in a really powerful direct hit like the one last night?
Does anyone have professional knowledge or experience with this, and is there anything else that can be done to protect the gas lines in the attic from such a strike?
