Guidelines for Locating a Qualified Installer
ESP Safety Shelters, Swisher Acquisition Inc. or any of its affiliated companies do
not endorse, recommend or prequalify any shelter installation companies or
individuals. The information below is only provided as a guide to assisting the
shelter owner in identifying a qualified installer. ESP Safety Shelters, Swisher
Acquisition Inc. or any of its affiliated companies shall have no liability in
regards to the performance or cost of any installer hired by the shelter owner.
ESP Safety Shelters are designed to be installed by the owner (DIY) if desired.
DIY Installation does require heavy lifting, some tools (as listed in this
manual) and assistance from 2 to 3 additional people. DIY Installation does
not eliminate the need for a Qualified Inspector to certify the installation.
ESP Safety Shelters can also be installed by a third party. To locate a third party
installer you have a few choices:
1) Visit the National Storm Shelter Association’s website
www.nssa.cc/installers. This site will provide you with a list of pre-
approved installation companies who are registered members of the
NSSA.
2) Locate a local installer that is experienced in general construction and
installing anchor bolts in concrete. There are also a number of
resources online to assist in your search. However, word of mouth
referrals are always the best option. The installer you choose does not
have to be experienced in Storm Shelter installation, but they should
have experience in the above mentioned trades. Always ask for
references and contact the Better Business Bureau to thoroughly check
the installer’s reputation.
3) Remember, the Installation and Inspection Checklists MUST always be
followed to ensure the near-absolute protection provided by your ESP
Safety Shelter.
4) Finally, regardless of who installs your ESP Safety Shelter it MUST be
inspected by a Qualified Inspector using the Inspection Checklist that
came with your unit.
