Lightning rods do work as demonstrated by Ben Franklin 269 years ago for which he received honorary degrees from Harvard and Yale. However, they should be installed by firms listed by UL and their installers who have passed four closed book proctored exams by the Lightning Protection Institute to qualify for Master Installer. Known installers working in this area include A-1 Lightning (not AAA), Triangle Lightning, and Central Lightning. Warning: just because you may find a vendor in the Yellow Pages does not mean they meet the above criteria.
