I am certain I have the skills, experience, and tools to tackle the job, but would like to confirm with people who really know the subject - that my own understanding and plans are correct - before I actually buy materials and begin the work. It is a very very very large house (200 years old brick building in Czech Rep.). We had a roofing company install a new aluminum roof, and they removed the original RODS and CABLES and told us we'd have to get another company to install new equipment. My current plan is to attach tall copper rods to two of the chimneys, then run well insulated thick copper cable thru the roof into the attic. Run the cable along the attic beams to the roof eave - thru the wall to the outside - then down to the ground to re-connect with the original rod going into the ground. Can anyone offer some feedback and advice. Thanks so much in advance.
