Storm Shelters May Be Worth Investment

Full Description:

"Storm shelters can protect against F-5 tornado winds, and Category 5 hurricane winds. They can be built into a home, inside a garage or behind a stairwell, or they can be buried into the ground.

The fiberglass exterior keeps the inside cool, while people, pets, or any priceless possessions stay safe. Many say this investment can actually save money by not wasting time and money by leaving town.

Dick Ault, VP of Storm Shelters of NW Florida, said, "You can stay and take care of your property. You don't have to worry about trying to get back into the county after you've left, sometimes the power's out and you can be there, secure your property and keep your family safe."

Officials say these shelters only work with properties that are not affected by rising water. These storm shelters range in price, anywhere from $4,000 to 7,000.
