    Fred Wimmer:The MLGW "The Energy Doctor" just left my house. He was very experienced and went over every crack and opportunity. He found a carbon monoxide leak and may have saved us more than money. It was a tiny rusted spot behind the duct as it went into the chimney. The program is named "The Energy Doctor", and he was on time for our appointment. Call:528-4188.
