A Smart Move in a Storm-Prone City 

In the heart of Miami, where summer storms are frequent and lightning strikes are a real concern, Barcelona Condos has taken proactive measures to protect its residents and infrastructure. With safety, efficiency, and reliability in mind, the property management team recently installed a CMCE-120 Lightning Suppressor — one of the most advanced lightning prevention systems on the market today. 

One Device, Half a Million Square Feet of Protection 

Covering an impressive 500,000 square feet with a single device, the CMCE-120 now serves as the first line of defense against lightning-related damage for this prominent residential complex. By choosing CMCE Lightning Suppression, Barcelona Condos demonstrates its commitment to cutting-edge protection and long-term risk reduction. 

Prevention Over Reaction 

The decision wasn’t just about prevention — it was about trust. Unlike traditional lightning rods that attract and redirect lightning, the CMCE system prevents strikes from forming in the first place. With minimal maintenance requirements and a sleek, unobtrusive design, the CMCE-120 fits seamlessly into the building’s safety strategy while offering peace of mind during Florida’s most volatile weather. 

Leading by Example in Residential Safety 

At Capitol Electronics, we are proud to support forward-thinking communities like Barcelona Condos. Their decision to invest in the future of lightning protection sets a new standard for residential safety in storm-prone regions.
