Protect More with Less: More Coverage for Lower Cost

When it comes to lightning protection, businesses and property owners are often faced with costly and complex solutions that require extensive installation. Traditional lightning rod systems demand multiple rods, intricate wiring, and ongoing maintenance, resulting in expenses that can quickly add up to thousands of dollars for commercial properties. However, with the revolutionary CMCE Lightning Suppressor, you can achieve superior protection with a single, cost-effective device. 


Expansive Coverage with One Device 


Unlike traditional lightning rods that only protect structures and require numerous components to cover a large area, the CMCE Lightning Suppressor offers a groundbreaking solution. A single CMCE device provides protection for an impressive 500,000 square feet, ensuring comprehensive safety for not just buildings but also surrounding outdoor areas. This means parking lots, recreational spaces, storage yards, and other open environments can be safeguarded under the CMCE's expansive coverage. 


Beyond Structural Protection 


Traditional lightning rods are designed primarily to protect the structure they are installed on. Unfortunately, they do not offer protection for adjacent areas and leave gaps in coverage that can lead to damage to outdoor equipment, vehicles, and people. Additionally, lightning rods do not guarantee 100% protection from lightning strikes, as they work by attracting strikes and attempting to direct to the ground rather than preventing them. 


On the other hand, the CMCE takes a proactive approach by preventing lightning formation within its coverage zone. This groundbreaking technology provides a shield over the installation area, ensuring that everything within its range is effectively protected from potential strikes. 


Cost-Effective Lightning Protection 


Installing traditional lightning protection systems can be an expensive and labor-intensive endeavor, with costs including multiple rods, extensive cabling, grounding systems, and regular inspections to ensure ongoing effectiveness. In contrast, the CMCE Lightning Suppressor simplifies the process and reduces costs significantly by requiring only one device to cover extensive areas without the need for complex installation and frequent maintenance. 


Protect more with less with the CMCE Lightning Suppressor – a single device that delivers expansive coverage, cost savings, and comprehensive protection for both structures and open spaces. Don’t settle for outdated solutions when advanced technology offers superior results.

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.
