Demilec Home Energy Audit Nationwide

Demilec Home Energy Audit in Pflugerville: What to Know First

We provide independent Demilec home energy audit in Pflugerville as an unaffiliated service provider, with same-day or next-day scheduling for most calls and a written price delivered before any work starts. A typical Demilec audit runs $280-$480 for a single-zone system, and you’ll receive documented blower-door readings and thermal imaging - not a verbal summary. This page is for Pflugerville homeowners who installed Demilec spray foam between 2012 and 2021 and are now seeing uneven temperatures, rising utility bills, or moisture indicators that suggest the envelope has shifted. Call (737) 259-8352 for a free estimate with a written scope.

How Demilec Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Demilec SEALECTION 500 open-cell foam shrinkage at top plates. In Pflugerville’s clay-heavy soils, seasonal foundation movement stresses the foam-to-wood bond at the attic perimeter. We find 3-8% linear shrinkage in homes built 2014-2018, creating a convection channel that bypasses the R-value entirely. We cut back the degraded foam, seal the gap with closed-cell touch-up, and re-test with the blower door to confirm the CFM50 drop.
• Demilec Heatlok Soya HFO cold-weather application defects. This line was specified heavily in the Stone Hill Town Center builds during 2016-2019, and batches applied below 40°F substrate temperature never achieved full rise density. The result: internal voids we locate with FLIR thermal imaging, then drill and inject with compatible two-component foam rather than tearing out intact surrounding material.
• Demilec 500 Demi-Fresh off-gassing and indoor air quality complaints. The citrus-oil additive in this residential line breaks down under sustained attic heat above 140°F - common in Pflugerville’s west-facing roof planes. We don’t just mask odor; we remove the degraded foam layer, ventilate the cavity to safe VOC levels verified with a photoionization detector, and reinstall with a non-amine formulation.
• Demilec Agribalance shrinkage at rim joists in crawl spaces. The higher bio-content in this series absorbs seasonal moisture in Pflugerville’s spring humidity spikes, then releases it as dimensional change. We see this most in the Windermere and Blackhawk neighborhoods where crawl space encapsulation was omitted. Our fix: remove the compromised Agribalance, install a proper vapor barrier, then re-foam with a hydrophobic closed-cell alternative.
• Demilec SEALECTION Agri-Bond delamination from OSB roof sheathing. The adhesive interface fails when roof leaks - even minor ones from wind-driven rain on shallow-pitch sections - saturate the foam before the sheathing dries. We map the delaminated zones with moisture meters, remove only the affected foam, treat the sheathing with borate if mold is present, and reapply with a primer-compatible closed-cell system that bonds to damp-tolerant substrates.

Our Demilec Home Energy Audit Process

1. 1
   Schedule and scope. You call (737) 259-8352; a live person answers. We confirm your Demilec product line from installation records or visual ID, and email a written price range before the appointment.
2. 2
   Blower-door baseline. We run a pressurization test - a measurement that shows, in one number, how much conditioned air your building envelope is losing. This is your pre-job CFM50, documented with photos of the manometer reading.
3. 3
   Thermal imaging and physical inspection. Our tech scans with FLIR for voids, shrinkage, and delamination, then probes suspect areas with a moisture meter and core samples where needed. We photograph every anomaly.
4. 4
   Diagnosis and repair plan. We identify whether your issue needs OEM Demilec touch-up foam, compatible third-party material, or removal and replacement. We explain the trade-offs in writing - no verbal-only recommendations.
5. 5
   Repair, re-test, and documentation. We complete the air sealing or foam work, run a second blower-door test, and hand you a written report with before-and-after CFM50 numbers, thermal images, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise backed by Haven Standard warranty language.

Why Pflugerville Homeowners Call Topside Attic Insulation Pflugerville for Demilec Work

We’ve been in attics throughout Pflugerville’s growth corridors since 2016, and the regional heat load patterns in the Stone Hill Town Center area aren’t a surprise to our crew. Wes Okafor, our owner, trained in building systems technology at Kennedy-King College on Chicago’s South Side, where the curriculum drilled air-sealing fundamentals before insulation was even discussed. That sequence - sealed first, then insulated - is how we approach every Demilec job.

We publish before-and-after blower-door numbers on every applicable job, so you verify the performance change rather than taking our word. Our materials include Demilec, Icynene, and Reflectix systems, so we’re not locked into one manufacturer’s solution when another fits your cavity condition better. Calls are answered by a live person 24/7, and every job closes with a written warranty under our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
