I suggest you do lots of research and shop around. I did and looked at all of the specs for number of rods, size and type of cable, type, size and depth of ground stakes, installation techniques, etc. There is quite a lot to it, and far too detailed to report at the moment. My 1600 sq.ft. CYV was done for under $1000 and my neighbor's smaller house for less than that. This did not include surge protectors.
