Deltec Homes Hurricane Resistant Homes Withstand Hurricane High Winds ASHEVILLE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Deltec Homes hurricane resistant homes provide people who choose to live near coastal areas a safe round home from high winds and water versus traditionally built homes. As of June 2, 2009, the forecasters from Department of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University anticipate a slightly below average probability of United States and Caribbean major hurricane landfall. "In four decades, we have never lost a Deltec Home to a hurricane. Our homeowners continue to tell their own real life stories of their hurricane resistant homes so others may realize the hurricane resistant home benefits of owning a Deltec Home" said Joseph Schlenk Marketing/Sales Director of Deltec Homes. Peter Levin lives in Miami, FL. His home, a Deltec round home, survived Hurricane Andrew, a category 5 storm which destroyed areas in south Florida. "The eye of Andrew passed over our home," he said. "All we lost were a few shingles." A few years later, Levin's hurricane resistant home endured Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma in the same year. Homes around them were destroyed, but their Deltec hurricane resistant round home was undamaged. He knows why. "It stood because of the round shape. The wind has no place to hit it, so it just goes around. It's a natural shape," he explained.
