Salt Lake City / South Jordan
South Jordan is about 16 miles from the Census center point for Salt Lake City in a straight line and covers 25.761 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
South Jordan has 82,686 residents (give or take 49) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19), about 3,210 people per square mile.
The quote form takes a ZIP code; for South Jordan that is 84009, 84095 (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).
3,210 people per square mile puts South Jordan in suburban density, where the outdoor unit usually sits in a side yard and the noise is not an issue for neighbors.
Of the 26,740 occupied homes in South Jordan, 84% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 14% with electricity and 2% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19).
South Jordan has about the Salt Lake County oil share of 0% and 2 points less electric heat than the county's 16% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US49035, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 84% of South Jordan against electricity at 14%, 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.
The median South Jordan home was built in 2007 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 7.9 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19).
South Jordan has 27,365 housing units, 1% built before 1940 and 9% before 1980, with 70% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19).
South Jordan has 6 points fewer pre-1940 homes than Salt Lake County as a whole (7%) and 38 points more homes built after 2000 than the county's 32% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US49035, checked 2026-10-19).
70% of South Jordan housing was built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4970850, 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.
71% of South Jordan homes are single-family detached, 1% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 12% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19).
With 71% detached houses and 1% in small multi-family buildings, a South Jordan quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 19% of South Jordan homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4970850, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
South Jordan has 11 points more detached houses than Salt Lake County overall (60%) and 11 points fewer five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 23% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US49035, checked 2026-10-19).
No electric utility is on file for South Jordan 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 South Jordan is $134,047 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4970850, 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.
Heating design temperature: 11F.

That 11F figure is the Salt Lake County cold-day number a South Jordan heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 11F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 84% of South Jordan on gas and 14% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median South Jordan home has 7.9 rooms and was built around 2007, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
