George Washington's Geothermal Upgrade

As the father of our country, George Washington was known as a forward thinker and an innovator. Now, visitors to the George Washington Birthplace National Monument in Virginia can experience that same spirit when they visit a building that is heated and cooled by a geothermal heat pump. Special Correspondent Josh Zepps follows each step as National Park Service workers complete the archeologically sensitive engineering project inside and outside the Memorial House near the site where Washington was born in 1732. Homeowners can get similar systems installed on their own property and qualify for federal tax breaks to help cover the cost.
