Deltec Homes

Hurricane Ready.

Deltec’s round homes are designed to do more than capture beautiful 360-degree views. Their aerodynamic shape, radial structural system, high-strength materials, and reinforced connections give them the strength to stand up to some of nature’s most powerful storms.

And we have decades of real-world performance to prove it. From Andrew and Katrina to Michael, Dorian, and Ian, Deltec homes have endured some of the most destructive hurricanes on record. Our round homes built over the last 30 years have a documented 99.9% survival rate.

Our 360° Signature Collection builds on this legacy of hurricane resilience, with seven models and 40 floor plans specifically designed to be Hurricane Ready, with high-wind upgrades available to meet demanding building requirements.

Our circular homes are aerodynamic, working with nature not against it — reducing the concentrated wind pressures that can lead to structural failure.
The roof and floor trusses radiate from the center of the house, dispersing the energy from sustained high winds throughout the entire structure
Deltec engineers focus on the critical connections that tie a home's structure together - oversized truss hangers keep a Deltec roof anchored to the walls, and continuous metal strapping transmits wind through the home to the foundation and ultimately the ground.

Storm after storm, the Deltec home is left standing.

Invest in Superior Construction

Deltec uses the best materials available, including special southern Georgia yellow pine that is twice the strength of commonly used structural lumber. High-quality Marvin windows come from North Dakota, and LP Smart Siding from Maine.
Every Deltec is manufactured using our advanced panelized building system. Wall panels, roof and floor trusses and 5/8” sheathing are pre-cut and precision-fabricated at our state-of-the-art facility in Asheville, NC, resulting in a premium-quality, energy-efficient structure delivered directly to the job site, where it is assembled and finished like a stick-built home.
Precision construction, an airtight building envelope and our circular design means every Deltec is engineered for energy efficiency. Deltec has won three prestigious US Department of Energy Zero Energy Ready Home Awards (2019, 2021, and 2023).

Round homes perform better in hurricanes – by design.

Unlike conventional construction, all aspects of a Deltec hurricane resistant round home are ingeniously designed to work as a system, making it the smartest home you can build for high wind areas.

Shape

Wind can’t build up enough pressure on any side to cause a structural failure.
Optimum roof pitch (6/12) for wind deflection and reduced lift.
Circular structure transfers environmental loads most efficiently.

Engineering

Radial floor & roof trusses work like spokes on a wheel.
Energy from sustained winds is dispersed instead of building up in a single area.

Construction

Machine rated 2400 psi framing lumber used in trusses and walls is twice as strong as typical framing material.
5/8” sheathing used on exterior walls, roof and floor strengthens the home and prevents flying debris from penetrating the structure.
Reinforced windows with impact glass prevent wind and water from entering the home.

Connections

Oversized truss hangers keep roof system anchored to walls.
Walls have multiple construction ties to the floor system for structural stability and to transfer shear forces.
Continuous metal strapping from roof trusses to foundation helps maintain structural stability.

Energy Efficiency

Designed to support solar energy use to provide power or hot water in the event of power outages.
Enhanced insulation maintains a balanced temperature inside the home.
Reflective metal roof helps reduce radiant heat gain in the home.
Passive solar design helps heat and cool the building through appropriate window placement.
