HeroX Air Domes

What does it actually cost to run a HeroX dome each month?

→ Inflation system: $1,000-$2,000/month
→ Heating: varies by climate (proper insulation cuts this in half)
→ Lighting: depends on LED spec and hours of operation
→ Total annual operating cost: typically $36K-$80K for a sports dome

The variable that matters most is insulation grade. Operators on our premium insulation see payback in 2-3 years on energy savings alone — and significantly lower opex for the next 20.

If you're modeling year-2 numbers and trying to estimate utilities, this is the post to save.

From cramped outdoor courts to doubled sales — one Belgian club's first dome winter.

The story: a small tennis club operating 5 months a year, losing members each off-season. After one HeroX dome, year-round revenue more than doubled.

If you want a HeroX dome operational before winter, this is your deadline.

Our 60-day order-to-opening fast track means: decisions made by mid-August → domes operational by mid-October. In time for fall leagues, junior camps, and the first cold front.

Wait until October to start, and you're playing catch-up for the entire winter season. Every winter week without indoor capacity is members migrating to a year-round competitor.

Don't let next winter be the one you watched from the sidelines.

Why we spec Sattler and Serge Ferrari membranes — and what that means for your dome.

Our fabric: 32-36 oz/yd². Most competitors: 20-28 oz/yd². That's 20-40% thicker.

What you get for that:
→ More puncture resistance
→ Longer service life (25+ years)
→ Better UV stability
→ NFPA 701 fire-rated
→ The same membranes used in major stadiums worldwide

Fabric weight isn't a vanity spec. It's the difference between a dome that looks tired in year 5 and one that holds up for two decades.

How long until your dome is up? Honest timeline.

— Engineering: 7–14 days
— Manufacturing: 16–20 weeks (mechanicals are the long lead)
— Shipping: 2–4 weeks
— Site install: 1–3 days with 8–15 local laborers + HeroX supervision
— Permits: 3–9 months (parallel track)

Total: 6–9 months realistic. Fast-track: 60 days from order to opening (yes, we've done it).

"Can I actually afford this?" — the question every operator asks first.

Yes. Here are the three pathways we walk operators through:

1. Traditional financing: 5.99% fixed, 2-6 year terms, $0 down possible
2. Lease-to-own: monthly payments, ownership at the end of term
3. Revenue-share: HeroX co-invests for proven operators (20-60% rev share)

On a $300K project, monthly payments often land under $5,500 — frequently less than the new monthly revenue the dome unlocks.

Paris, France — Le Rancy Tennis Club merged its dome directly into the existing clubhouse.

No detached structure. No external transition. The membrane integrates with the building, so members walk straight from the lobby onto a covered court.

1,225 m². 35 × 35 × 13m. Built 2025.

Everyone talks $/sq ft. Owners care about $/booked court-hour.

Tennis math (per court):
— 16 hours of bookable time per day
— 350 operating days per year
— $40 average court-hour rate
= ~$224,000 per court, per year — at 100% utilization.

Most operators hit 70–85%. So plan for $155K–$190K per court, per year.

Now multiply by your court count. That's your revenue ceiling. The dome is the unlock.

Air dome or fabric structure? Quick decision guide.

Air dome: $15–25/sq ft upfront, higher operating cost, fully relocatable, fastest to install.
Fabric structure (steel/aluminum frame): $25–55/sq ft upfront, lower operating cost, permanent feel, better for industrial.

Sports facility with seasonal flex? Air dome.
Hangar, warehouse, mining cover? Fabric.
