Tips for Preparing Your Home for a Safe Room Installation
Natural disasters can happen when we least expect them. Having a safe room, or a storm shelter, will help you be prepared when disaster strikes. If you decide to add a safe room to your home, read the following installation tips provided by FamilySAFE, the leading provider of custom home shelters across the country, especially in tornado alley. Locate a dealer near you to help you with all your shelter needs!
Where to Install
The first step when preparing your home for installation is deciding where your safe room should be. Above-ground safe rooms can be strategically placed within existing homes, while below-ground shelters can be integrated during new construction if the area is not prone to flooding. You can build a safe room outside your home as well. If you’re unsure where the best place to build a safe room is on your property, contact the professionals at FamilySAFE shelters today.
When to Install
Short answer — as soon as possible. You want to ensure you and your family’s safety as soon as you can, especially if you live in an area prone to tornadoes and hurricanes. The best way to be prepared is by having your shelter installed before storm season, which means you should aim for installation during the fall and winter months.
What to Install
With FamilySAFE shelters, our safe rooms are manufactured using high-grade steel built to withstand the strongest tornadoes and hurricanes. While you can build a safe room yourself, the risk of improper installation can cause more issues when disaster hits. FamilySAFE uses the highest quality materials, offering maximum protection against even the most powerful tornadoes.
Who Should Install
