Product Details
The Esp Safety Shelter™ measures 84"L x 144"W x 80"H and accommodates up to 25 people for private use and 15 for business settings. It has been rigorously tested at the National Wind Institute at Texas Tech University, successfully withstanding nine impacts from 15 lb 2x4's traveling at 100 mph—equivalent to the force of an F5 tornado with winds reaching 250 mph. The shelter meets or exceeds all requirements set by the National Storm Shelter Association (NSSA), FEMA 320, and ICC-500 standards. Designed for above-ground use, the Esp Safety Shelter provides comprehensive protection against natural disasters and various human threats. Each unit is compliant with NSSA standards and adheres to FEMA P320/P361 and ICC-500 code requirements when installation guidelines are followed. The shelters are engineered by registered structural engineers and have undergone a meticulous third-party review process. Manufactured in the USA, the Esp Safety Shelters are engineered to endure extreme tornado conditions and serve as a secure area during home invasions, granting critical time for emergency responders. The FEMA P-320 states that safe rooms can offer nearly absolute protection from the dangerous forces of extreme winds, while FEMA P-361 defines near absolute protection as a very high probability of safeguarding occupants from injury or death during tornadoes and hurricanes.
