The quote form takes a ZIP code; for North Salt Lake that is 84054 (Census 2020 ZCTA to county subdivision and ZCTA to place relationship files, ZIP areas at least 20% inside the town, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/rel2020/zcta520/tab20_zcta520_cousub20_natl.txt and https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/rel2020/zcta520/tab20_zcta520_place20_natl.txt, checked 2026-10-19).

Fuel mix

Of the 8,066 occupied homes in North Salt Lake, 86% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 12% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19).

Gas heats 86% of North Salt Lake against electricity at 12%, so most quotes here are a partial-home system that carries the shoulder seasons and the summer while the gas furnace handles the coldest nights, or a whole-home system when the house is ready for it.

North Salt Lake has about the Davis County oil share of 0% and the same 12% electric share (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US49011, checked 2026-10-19).

Housing stock

North Salt Lake has 8,271 housing units, 1% built before 1940 and 27% before 1980, with 56% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19).

North Salt Lake has 17 points more homes built after 2000 than the county's 39% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US49011, checked 2026-10-19).

The median North Salt Lake home was built in 2002 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6.1 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19).

59% of North Salt Lake homes are single-family detached, 8% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 20% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19).

33% of North Salt Lake homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 59% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

North Salt Lake has 16 points fewer detached houses than Davis County overall (75%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US49011, checked 2026-10-19).

56% of North Salt Lake housing was built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19), and homes that recent usually meet the insulation codes in place at the time, so a heat pump sized to the floor plan lands closer to the real load than it would in an older neighborhood.

Rebate path

No electric utility is on file for North Salt Lake on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.

Median household income in North Salt Lake is $101,447 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4955210, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.

Cold-day number

Heating design temperature: 12F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Davis County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 125 to 127 of 141 (Revised 11/11/2020), https://www.energystar.gov/sites/default/files/Design%20Temperature%20Limit%20Reference%20Guide%20(2019%20Ed)%20-%20ENERGY%20STAR%20Single-Family%20New%20Homes_Rev11.pdf, fetched 2026-10-19, 99%.

That 12F figure is the Davis County cold-day number a North Salt Lake heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 12F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 86% of North Salt Lake on gas and 12% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median North Salt Lake home has 6.1 rooms and was built around 2002, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
