As the new year begins, many of us resolve to improve our lives and protect what matters most. One essential resolution for property owners is ensuring their homes and outdoor spaces are ready for the unpredictable storms that lie ahead. Lightning strikes are among the most destructive and costly hazards of severe weather. Fortunately, the CMCE Lightning Suppressor offers an innovative solution to safeguard your property for years to come.

Why Lightning Protection is Crucial

Lightning strikes can cause extensive damage, from structural fires to electrical system failures, not to mention the risk to personal safety. With climate change contributing to more severe weather events, the likelihood of experiencing damaging lightning strikes has increased significantly. Traditional lightning rods and surge protectors address the aftermath of a strike, but they do little to prevent lightning from forming in the first place.

How the CMCE Works

The CMCE Lightning Suppressor neutralizes the atmospheric electric field that leads to lightning formation by continuously absorbing electrical charges during a thunderstorm. This proactive approach prevents strikes from occurring. With its ability to cover large areas, the CMCE is ideal for protecting homes and outdoor spaces of all sizes. Durable and low maintenance, it provides reliable performance through years of storm seasons.

Prepare Your Property for Storm Season

Installing a CMCE Lightning Suppressor is an investment in your property’s safety and longevity. With its cutting-edge technology and proven effectiveness, this system is a game-changer for anyone living in storm-prone areas. As we enter the new year, now is the perfect time to ensure your property is ready for whatever nature has in store.

Lightning-Free Living: The Invisible Shield Protecting Olympus Harbour Island

By Rachel Rowland • May 23, 2025

Luxury Living, Elevated Olympus Property is a nationally recognized leader in luxury multifamily living, known for managing and developing high-end residential communities across the United States. With a strong emphasis on lifestyle, comfort, and long-term value, Olympus Property has built a reputation for excellence in both service and innovation. One of its standout communities, Olympus Harbour Island , is a prime example of upscale urban living. Located on Tampa’s exclusive Harbour Island, this waterfront property offers resort-style amenities, panoramic city views, and proximity to downtown attractions, all while maintaining an air of refined tranquility. Olympus Harbour Island’s Vulnerability to Strikes The premium location that makes Olympus Harbour Island so desirable also places it at a heightened risk for lightning strikes. Tampa, Florida, is widely regarded as the “Lightning Capital of North America,” experiencing some of the highest lightning strike densities in the country. With Harbour Island’s exposure to open water and its array of tall, modern structures, the community faced real vulnerability to lightning-related damage. These risks included power surges, potential fire hazards, structural damage, and service disruptions—each of which could compromise resident safety, operational integrity, and the luxury living experience Olympus strives to uphold. Game-Changing Protection: CMCE Lightning Suppression To address these concerns, Olympus Property installed the advanced CMCE Lightning Suppressors at Olympus Harbour Island . Specifically, the property is now protected with a CMCE-120 and a CMCE-55 , covering 600,000 square feet total. Unlike traditional lightning rods that attempt to redirect a strike to the ground, the CMCE is engineered to prevent lightning formation altogether. It works by balancing the electrical field and deionizing the surrounding atmosphere, effectively eliminating the conditions necessary for lightning to form. In doing so, the CMCE creates an invisible shield—like a protective dome—over the covered area, ensuring that lightning simply cannot develop or strike within its coverage area. Prevention Over Reaction: The Benefits of CMCE This proactive and preventative approach aligns with Olympus Property’s dedication to forward-thinking solutions and resident safety. By installing the CMCE-120 and CMCE-55 Lightning Suppressors , Olympus Harbour Island has eliminated its exposure to lightning threats, ensuring uninterrupted comfort for residents and safeguarding the property’s critical infrastructure.
