Public

Adding lightning protection to any structure exponentially increases the safety of the building. It is imperative that public structures be protected above and beyond - whether it is a community’s century-old church, a hospital data center, or a convention center with thousands of people. Recovering from a electrical strike or consequential fire may take weeks or months. Vital public services cannot be interrupted. By choosing to include lightning protection in your project, your hospitals, monuments, police and fire stations are all protected to a higher standard.

Education

Pre-school through higher education, the average U.S. resident devotes a considerable amount of time perusing an education. Places of learning are an invaluable resource and regular gathering site for our children and loved ones. They should be protected from the disastrous effects of lightning strikes and fire. A professionally installed system is discreet, leaving the overall appearance of the building intact. Having lightning protection installed on a facility ensures the safety of its occupants and its resources: computer labs, science and biomedical labs, data centers, libraries, auditoriums and many others.

Electrical strikes cause millions of dollars in residential damage each year. Between 2007 and 2011 United States fire departments responded to an annual average of 22,600 fires started by lightning; 19% of those where residential. Your home is your sanctuary. It contains the people and possessions most important to you. We provide lightning protection for your place of residence and peace of mind for you. By installing lightning protection on your home, you are actively protecting yourself from one of mother natures’ most destructive forces. Midwest Lightning & Grounding can provide you with the most up-to-date lightning protection system available, as well as bring existing systems up to current codes, to ensure you are protected. Properly designed lightning protection systems can be surprisingly discrete.  Even if a lightning strike does not ignite a fire, it can still cause a lot of damage to a home’s electronics. Today’s modern home has thousands of dollars in computers, audio/video equipment, heating and cooling systems, and computer-run appliances that are vulnerable to electrical surges.
