1.If in your database the filed is allow NULL and has also a default value 0.0 (like you said), when you insert or update new data in the database, if you do not specify any value for that field the value will be the default value (like you said).
2.But if your code set that filed NULL value (directly or indirectly from the user input) the NULL value will be saved, because you set a value for that field and that filed allow NULL.
3.The solution is, in your MVC Controller class, before to save into the database to check that filed or UI control (text box) from where that value come for NULL value.
