Every Cardinal blown-in install is specified to the guidance issued by the U.S. Department of Energy, ENERGY STAR, and the Florida Building Commission — the three bodies that define how a South Florida attic should be insulated. We don't guess at R-value. We install to code, document it, and prove it in thermal imaging.
R-30 to R-60 for South Florida attics
The DOE recommends R-30 to R-60 of attic insulation for homes in DOE Climate Zone 1 (South Florida), noting that proper insulation is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve energy efficiency and comfort. Cardinal blows to R-38 — the midpoint of the DOE's recommended range for our climate.
DOE — Blown-In & Loose-Fill InsulationUp to 15% savings on heating & cooling
ENERGY STAR recommends R-30 to R-60 for Florida attics and reports that sealing air leaks and adding insulation can save homeowners up to 15% on heating and cooling costs — and up to 37% when paired with a radiant barrier in South Florida's climate. Cardinal air-seals before every blow so insulation performs at its rated R-value.
ENERGY STAR — Seal & InsulateR-30 ceiling minimum in the Florida Building Code
The Florida Building Commission administers the Florida Building Code, which sets a minimum ceiling insulation value of R-30 for residential construction in South Florida. Cardinal installs to or above code on every job — and documents compliance with a depth-measurement and FLIR proof report before you pay the balance.
Florida Building Commission — FBCThe Cardinal standard exceeds all three.
We air-seal before we blow, install to R-38 (above the R-30 code floor), document depth at multiple points, and deliver a FLIR thermal proof report — so you can see the install meets DOE, ENERGY STAR, and Florida Building Code guidance before you ever pay the balance.
