(Toledo)--Mark Mockensturm has lived in his Old Orchard neighborhood home for a decade now. He noticed terrible drafts along with high heating bills, so he decided to call on Enersol out of Maumee to get assistance with insulation and air sealing on his 1920's house.

The initial inspection itself typically costs less than a hundred dollars. The total expense of this project cost more than $3000. However, various tax incentives brought this amount down to $900. And in just a few months, the energy savings have been cut in half.

If you want to receive an inspection from Enersol, you can contact the company at 419-891-2112 or go to www.enersolus.com.

And to do a self-inspection, the Department of Energy's website can assist. It's www.energysavers.gov/your_home/energy_audits.
