Hemispherical Domes |
| What diameters are available? |
Any diameter from 8'0" to 36'0". |
| What materials are used? |
Domes are made from 24-gauge Galvalume
steel or Baked Enamel over Galvanized material. Domes are frequently made
in a variety of colors. We can customize any color or finish to the needs
of the customer. |
| Can I paint the dome myself? |
Yes. The dome can be purchased with a
"Washcoat" over galvanized. The washcoat is a paint primer. With a simple
wipe down the sheet is ready for paint. |
| What makes your product special? |
The DeMuth Hemispherical Dome is
"self-supporting"; it does not require any superstructure for erection. It
is a "free-standing" product. |
| How do you attach your dome to a
structure? |
There are a variety of anchoring and/or
attachment systems available to meet the numerous design applications for
this product. After a review of your plans, we will recommend a system
that best meets your application. |
| Is any special re-inforcing needed with
your roof? |
Depending on the diameter, the
geographic and physical location, Re-inforcing Kits are available. These
kits are designed to "hug" the inside wall of the dome and can be applied
without detracting from the "effect" of the dome. |
| Is the dome weatherproof? |
The dome can be weatherproofed with the
application of a top grade of clear caulk at each seam. |
| Can the dome be insulated? |
Yes. There are several ways to apply
insulation. After reviewing your plans, we will recommend a particular
application. |
| Where are your domes made? |
Depending on your application and
location, the dome will be manufactured in either Waterloo, Ontario or
Leola, Pennsylvania. Both facilities have competent professionals to help
in the application and manufacture of a dome roof to meet your needs. |
