Vapor barriers are supposed to be installed on the heated side of the insulation - except in the State of Alabama (or maybe Mississippi) where is is opposite due to the high humidity.

Maybe in Florida they eliminate the vapor barrier completely? If you have blown in insulation installed in a older house that wasn't insulated, I don't think they can install a vapor barrier.
