Default Lighting Protection issues
The alarm for this fire was received at the county fire department at 4:28 a.m. on Thursday, March 31, 2011 and the property is located in the Fairways subdivision just outside of The Villages. As a result, you may experience door-to-door lightning sales people in our neighborhoods especially in those villages near where this event took place. Sales tactics may include high pressure and low-ball prices. If you do consider a lightning protection system see the Lightning Matters columns in the April 2011 and July 2010 that can be found on line at the POA web site. Be sure to get two quotes from a Underwriters Laboratories or Lightning Protection Institute "listed" installer. Remeber this is a buyer beware marketplace.
