Is it recommended to get a surge protector installed from the electric company for protection against a lighting hit?

It has been discussed but you do have options.. You can rent or buy from the electric company or you can buy from an electrical contractor like Munn's.

It has been said that the contractors are a better deal. With all the lighting it is highly recommended. They also recommend smaller protectors on the garage door opener, TV, Microwave, lawn sprinklers and any computers.
