We have a deep basement which helps also, but nothing is designed to take a direct hit. I wouldn't mind a safe room but I suspect that we will never do this. I have been researching the smaller and less expensive subterranean systems lately for the blog and also because our daughter bought a house with no basement. Her best bet in a tornado is one of her interior bathrooms which is windowless, but I still think this is something she should research.JaneofVirginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15320442534060401465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1185219031783989911.post-63603613719173076252012-12-09T16:53:35.853-08:002012-12-09T16:53:35.853-08:00My husband and his employer have installed a coupl...My husband and his employer have installed a couple of tornado shelters in the past (we're in a tornado prone area). Most of us (here) have basements, which help. I don't happen to have one but if I did not have a basement it would be something I would seriously consider. Some of these models are small-standing room only- and some as large as a very small bedroom or walk in closet, in fact they can be installed in new construction as a closet which can be a safe room. They ones they installed were fire proof and could function as a gun safe/valuable safe. (These were above ground). For anyone that can afford it it really is a nice thing to have.
