All Shelters have been designed by Registered Structural Engineers and have undergone a rigorous Third Party Review process. Statement from FEMA P-320: “Having a safe room built for your home or small business can help provide “near-absolute protection” for you and your family or employees from injury or death caused by the dangerous forces of extreme winds.” Near Absolute Protection definition from FEMA P-361: Level of protection afforded to the occupants of a safe room built according to the guidance in the most current edition of FEMA P-361. Our current knowledge of tornadoes and hurricanes indicates that safe room occupants will have a very high probability of being protected from injury or death. This shelter is not waterproof. The Swisher ESP Safety Shelter™ has undergone and passed testing at the National Wind Institute at Texas Tech University.
