Geodesic Dome Rental Business FAQ
How does the cost to entry compare with traditional rental properties?
Geodesic domes offer a low cost to entry compared to traditional rental properties. Their modular design and the use of cost-effective materials allow for a more affordable initial investment. This makes it easier for new entrants to start their business without the need for substantial capital.
What about the maintenance costs?
The maintenance costs for geodesic domes are significantly lower than those for conventional buildings. Their geometric structure gives them superior durability and resistance to extreme weather conditions, reducing the need for frequent repairs and upkeep. This contributes to a higher ROI over time.
How do geodesic domes appeal to travellers?
Travellers are increasingly looking for unique and Instagram-worthy accommodations. Geodesic domes meet this demand with their distinctive appearance and immersive nature experience. They attract a wide range of guests, from eco-conscious travelers to those seeking a luxury glamping experience, increasing occupancy rates and profitability.
Can the aesthetic appeal of geodesic domes really impact my rental business?
Absolutely. The unique and futuristic look of geodesic domes makes them highly attractive to potential renters. This aesthetic appeal can significantly enhance your listing's visibility and desirability on rental platforms, leading to more bookings and the ability to command higher rental prices.
How do geodesic domes contribute to a higher ROI?
Geodesic domes contribute to a higher ROI through several key factors: their low initial investment and maintenance costs, their appeal to a broad audience, and their ability to stand out in the competitive vacation rental market. Additionally, their energy efficiency and minimal environmental impact can also qualify them for green certifications and tax incentives, further increasing their profitability.

Commandes personnalisées
Autoriser
Selon l'utilisation que vous comptez faire de votre dôme, légalement, vous devrez peut-être passer par le processus d'autorisation auprès de votre municipalité. Les réglementations provinciales, étatiques et locales varient et méritent d'être examinées à l'avance.
Nous pouvons fournir des cotes de charge de neige et de vent estampillées par un ingénieur pour AB, BC, NB, NS et ON pour toutes nos principales tailles de dômes afin de faciliter l'obtention des permis processus. Nous pouvons également généralement aider à trouver un ingénieur pour effectuer les études pertinentes requises pour d'autres régions.
Selon leur taille, nos dômes sont capables de résister à une charge de neige comprise entre 60 et 100 psi et à des vents allant jusqu'à 320 km/h. Celles-ci incluent une marge de sécurité de 4x pour les structures occupées par l'homme, vous pouvez donc être assuré qu'elles sont plus que capables de résister à toutes les conditions météorologiques défavorables. Nous pouvons également fournir des données d'essais au feu, ainsi que des plans estampillés pour des plates-formes en bois parfaitement ajustées.

Depending on size, our Domes are capable of withstanding between 60-100psf snow load and up to 320km/h winds. These include a safety margin of 4x for human-occupied structures, so you can rest assured that they are more than capable of withstanding whatever adverse weather comes their way.
