Question:

Lightning rods: So'East PA.My neighbor has one that he's never put up. I don't. Any thoughts?

No strikes in neighborhood in over 30 yrs. Any thoughts.

Answer:

Check with your local building code to see what they specify. In most areas you need to be licensed to make gas connections.
(1) enough strength well if you want more water to go though the pipe, you can increase the pressure, thus if the pipe is to thin it will break (2) a large cross-sectional area. well if you want more water another way is to increase the pipe size (3) enough length to conduct the flow not sure what they are asking on this one but i guess if you have 2 inches of pipe it really doesn't do much does it. (4) a sufficient drop. the drop means water pressure, greater the pressure the more water will flow.
