Lightning strikes can be shocking By AMBER DILLEYGlasgow Daily Times “In some cases they are on shingles, sometimes underneath them,” Botts said.
Botts also said the lightning deflectors have become uncommon. “In the past 10 years, we’ve done maybe two lightning rod systems on homes,” he said He added that in the right situation, they can be a good investment, but it depends on the location and elevation of the house. Because of that, he said, “it can cost as much at $1,000 or as little as $10.” What’s it cost? Homeowner’s insurance estimates through the AllState Web site Quick Quote Generator indicate premiums de-pend on the age of a house, the materials it is made of, how close it is located to fire stations and hydrants and the price of the home. These estimates are for a brick house built in 2000 that is within five miles of a fire station and within 500 feet of a hydrant. - $1 million – estimated annual premium of $2,570. - $750,000 – estimated annual premium of $2,050. - $500,000 – estimated annual premium of $1,520.00 - $250,000 – estimated annual premium of $810 - $100,000 – estimated annual premium of $480.
