Dome Homes
Applications
Features
Built like a giant ice cooler, the double fiberglass shell sandwiches a core of urethane foam and a Space Age Thermal Barrier Foil insulation for a very high energy efficient dome. Also, the dome shape has 1/3 less outside surface than a conventional building for an additional 30% energy saving.
Our dome structure has withstood direct hurricane strikes on the Florida coast. Height strength, plus flexibility of the fiberglass shell greatly reduces the risk of structural damage or personal injury in earthquake regions. Snow and ice damage is reduced due to the lack of conventional shingles and roofing materials. Its dome shape provides additional structural support during heavy snow accumulations.
Twenty-seven years of testing under normal living conditions by residents from the Florida Coast to West Texas to the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee have proven the durability and energy efficiency of our fiberglass dome homes.
