MODS® can be stacked up to seven units high and installed as above ground or earth shelter including fully buried “bunker” installations.

These sturdy units are the logical alternative to conventional mobile homes. MODS® provide improved protection from the elements, last longer and require less maintenance.

Three display units are open this week for EAA visitors, the exhibit is located approximately 500 feet to the left of the main entrance gate and are visible from the parking lot. Stop by to see the quality for yourself, or download a brochure for more information.


 

New Design – MODS® Bathroom & Shower Unit

Recently, MODS® International designed and built a new type of unit – a multiple bathroom and shower unit.  These types of units can be used  for events where guests are staying overnight, camp grounds, or even during emergencies – such as forest fires or chemical spills where it is necessary for the responders to have the ability to take a shower.

This particular unit has a split design – one half for the men and one half for the women.  Both sides have two showers and two toilets, and the women’s side also has a double vanity with mirror.

These units are built to the same International Building Codes as our temporary living units.  They have slip-resistant flooring and towel hooks by each shower unit.  There is also a utility room built into the unit that contains the 85 gallon water heater, utility sink, and electrical panel.  Everything in the unit is electric, including the humidity control and baseboard heat – so you wouldn’t have to worry about taking a hot shower then stepping out into the cold air.  The lights in this unit are controlled by motion detectors with timers.  This unit was designed to be very energy efficient.

MODS® units are easily transportable.   All we needed to move the unit was a crane and a flatbed truck.  We can ship them wherever they are needed, and once they arrive, they can be hooked up to water, sewer, and electricity in under an hour.  This particular unit is on its way to Colorado, but we are ready to design and build one for you!
