Healthy Homes for Every Florida Climate — From Coast to Corner
In-person Healthy Home Assessments statewide from Orlando. Get your Home Health Score, address moisture and radon exposure at the source, and build with GaiaCrete™ — Florida's answer to spray foam.
Mold and moisture
Florida's year-round humidity means moisture management is the #1 threat to home health. Vapor-permeable, high-alkalinity mineral composition wall systems inhibit mold at the source instead of hiding it behind chemicals.
Hurricane resilience
Wall systems in Florida must handle wind, water intrusion, and post-storm moisture. GaiaCrete™ is monolithic, mold-resistant, and won't degrade after storm exposure the way spray foam and fiberglass do.
Radon exposure
Multiple Florida counties are EPA Zone 1 for radon. Understanding indoor air quality — including radon, VOCs, and moisture — starts with a Home Health Score assessment.
What Climate Zone 1A-2A Means for Florida Homes
Florida's hot-humid climate creates the country's most challenging environment for indoor air quality and moisture management. Coastal salt air, hurricane exposure, elevated radon levels in several counties, and year-round humidity make healthy home construction and retrofits essential — not optional.
Florida Building Code (FBC) 8th Edition
HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone) requirements apply in Miami-Dade and Broward counties.

Home Health Score
A free screening that scores your home across indoor air quality, moisture and mold risk, building materials, and ventilation — so you know where to look first.
Healthy Home Assessment
A professional walkthrough of materials, moisture conditions, and ventilation, delivered as a prioritized action plan. Screening and guidance — not a medical or diagnostic service.

- Net carbon sink by design
Actual thermal performance varies by formulation, density, moisture content, installation method, and complete wall assembly. Final whole-wall thermal performance depends on the complete assembly, including material density, framing, finishes, thermal bridging, moisture conditions, and installation.
