I checked with our insurance agent about lightning rods, knowing that two homes have been destroyed by lightning in TV over the past two years. I was advised that the only good lightning rods are the copper ones, which of course are more expensive. The two homes that were struck by lightning were both concrete/stucko design and the last one hit did have lightning rods, which did not do the job. I've decided to not install them at this time on our new home.
