Do you ever feel like you're heating and cooling the entire neighborhood? Don't know how to begin making your historic home more energy efficient? A home energy audit could tell you where to begin and how to prioritize your money-saving efforts.

Preservation NC, the Raleigh Historic Districts Commission, and Home Performance NC have teamed up to offer one lucky Raleigh homeowner a free home energy audit. The winning audit will be videotaped to create an informational video about home energy audits and common problems and solutions. The video will be used online and at public events to promote energy-efficiency improvements in historic houses.

Want to know more? Visit PreservationNC.org/EnergyAudit. There you can tell us why we should choose you and your house. You can even go to our Flickr group to upload pictures or post a video auditioning yourself and your home to our YouTube group.

Creative submissions are encouraged! A complete list of contest rules is available at PreservationNC.org/EnergyAudit.
