About Geodomes
Q: Are all Geodesic Domes the same?
Unlike many other companies that use lower-quality materials that may not be as durable, strong, or visually appealing, Harmony Domes ensures that we only use the highest-quality materials, so you can enjoy years of durability and satisfaction.
While other dome companies simply send you a kit and leave you to figure out assembly, insulation, climate control, fixtures, appliances, and furnishings, we handle it all for you. At Harmony Domes, we customize and complete your dome exactly the way you envision it—without the hassle. Now that’s peace of mind!
Q: What is a geodesic dome?
The short answer? It’s your perfect sanctuary.
The scientific answer? It’s a geodesic dome made of galvanized steel struts that follow precise geodesic lines, creating a strong, open framework of triangles or polygons. Invented by R. Buckminster Fuller, who patented the design in 1954, the geodesic dome is one of the most durable, aerodynamic, energy-efficient, lightweight, and economical structures in existence, offering unmatched strength, longevity, and ease of construction.
Q: How do I clean the exterior of my geodesic dome?
To extend the life of your Harmony Dome, it’s important to clean the vinyl cover every 180 days by gently removing dirt and stains. Use a power nozzle, mild soap solution, and a soft scrub brush for the best results.
Avoid using solvents, abrasive brushes, wire pads, or high-pressure steam cleaners, as they can damage the surface.
After cleaning, be sure to rinse your dome thoroughly with water to eliminate any leftover cleaning solutions. Additionally, regularly brush out the bottoms of the window pockets and the base of the dome to keep everything in top condition.
Q: Can you create separate rooms in a Harmony Dome?
Absolutely! There are countless ways to create distinct spaces, from walls and partitions to screens and lofts. We’ll collaborate with you to design the perfect layout and bring your vision to life!
Q: What are zoning constraints for residential dome structures?
Zoning requirements can vary by city and county, so it’s important to obtain approval from your local Building Department. We’re happy to assist by providing structural analysis documents from our engineers, which include specifications for seismic, wind load, and snow load requirements.

Q: What is the warranty for a Harmony Dome?

Q: What kind of window options are offered?
You can customize your dome windows anyway you’d like! You can choose between round, triangle and panoramic windows.
There are also window and ventilation screens available.
Q: What kind of doors are available?
You can choose between single and double conventional doors that lock. We offer a variety of styles and offer door discounts for domes that are shipped out of state for cost purposes.
Q: How durable is the framework of a Harmony Dome?
Our frames are tough! They are hot-dip galvanized on both sides and completely protected from corrosion and rust—even if they’re exposed to humidity and water for long periods of time.
You can also choose optional powder coating in a wide variety of colors. Most people do choose a white powder coating but it’s up to you!
Q: How does a solar fan work?
We prefer PRANA to the solar fan. It’s like magic, but it’s not!
The Solar Fan is a ventilation fan that removes air from within the Dome and vents it out.
Q: What is PRANA?
The PRANA Recuperation System is an advanced ventilation and air exchange system designed to enhance indoor air quality by efficiently managing temperature and humidity. It works by recovering heat and energy from the outgoing air and using it to precondition the incoming air, ensuring a fresh, comfortable environment while reducing energy consumption. This system is ideal for maintaining a healthy, eco-friendly indoor climate in energy-efficient homes and buildings.
Q: What membrane colors do you offer?
We offer our standard Crystal White included in our kits. Additional colors are Heavy Blue, Taupe, Sandstone, Cloudy Gray, Deep-Sea Green, Sand & Pale Garnet are available for an additional cost.
Q: What is the fabric used on the exterior of Harmony Domes?
We use architectural PVC fabric manufactured in Belgium that surpasses the quality of most Dome companies.
It’s extremely durable, waterproof, flame retardant and resistant to UV and mold. All of the membranes come in the same thickness (650g/sqm), the same fire retardant and fungicide coating and can operate in -40° – 120°. And their life expectancy is 8-12 years depending on site-specific conditions.
Q: What weather conditions can Harmony Domes withstand?
Rain, snow, hail, sleet, sunshine, or extreme winds—your Harmony Dome can handle whatever Mother Nature throws its way, even if all of it happens in one day! (We’re looking at you, Colorado!)
We use only the highest-quality materials to ensure comfort and protection in virtually any environment. Thanks to its unique shape, most snow naturally slides off the dome, especially if kept heated. However, if heavy snowfall does accumulate, manual removal may be needed. For areas with extreme snow loads or high winds, we offer a reinforced framework option. If your location doesn’t experience such extreme conditions, additional reinforcement is not necessary.
Harmony Domes are built to withstand winds up to 120 mph and snow loads up to 80 psf. Our Premium Insulation boasts an R-6 value, but we can easily accommodate more stringent local requirements if needed.
Q: Can a Harmony Dome be used year round? 365?
Absolutely! Harmony Domes can be set up as both permanent and semi-permanent structures, offering a safe, weatherproof shelter in any climate. Not only do they stand strong against the elements, but they also provide a stunning interior that you can fully customize to suit your style!
Designed to withstand winds up to 120 mph and snow loads up to 80 psf, Harmony Domes are built for durability. We can easily meet your county or city’s building code requirements with a quick upgrade to pipe diameter or frequency.
With Premium Insulation and a certified R-value of 6, Private Use Harmony Domes are designed to keep you comfortable year-round, even in extreme conditions, and can accommodate up to 25 occupants.
