Spray Foam Insulation in Auburndale, FL

Spray Foam Insulation in Auburndale serves a city founded in 1880 by Frank Fuller, who came seeking refuge from cold Northeastern winters. The town was first called Sanatoria, after a hotel, and was renamed Auburndale when the railroad arrived in the 1880s. Two CSX lines still run through the city. The 2020 census counted 15,616 residents and 6,295 housing units, 9.1% of them vacant.

A mix of eras

Auburndale has older homes near its downtown and lakes and newer subdivisions toward the highways. Older homes usually need attic sealing and insulation first. Newer homes often have ducts in the attic, where foam on the roof deck or careful duct sealing makes a big difference.

Code and targets

Florida's 8th Edition energy code, in effect since December 31, 2023, lists R-38 for ceilings in climate zone 2. The Department of Energy suggests R-49 to R-60 for an empty attic in zone 2. Many older Auburndale attics fall well short.

Shops and storage

Auburndale sits in an area with citrus history, warehouses and plenty of outbuildings. Steel shops and storage buildings sweat in humid weather and heat up under the sun. Closed-cell foam stops both problems.

Planning the work

We write each area as its own line, attic, walls, shop, so you can do the most important part first.

Railroad-side homes

Houses close to the two CSX lines that run through the city often have older, leaky construction and hear every passing train. Air sealing and dense-pack in frame walls cut both drafts and some of the noise. Open-cell foam in interior walls helps with sound between rooms. We will tell you honestly how much quieter to expect, since windows usually carry most of the noise.
