Re: Safe Room - Costs/Benefits?

said by nunya:

What about a fraidy hole? No mods to building structure, and often don't even require a permit.

Depends on the water table and how much land the homeowner has to play with. Still, that's ideal protection, and for a small additional expense, it can also double as a good fallout shelter as that wouldn't require too many modifications.

As long as there is power, the water table doesn't matter, the Telco down here where the water table is only a few feet down has hundreds of FraidyHoles, only they call them CEV's.
