Gibsonton has about the Hillsborough County oil share of 0% and 3 points less electric heat than the county's 91% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US12057, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 88% of Gibsonton homes, ahead of gas at 2%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
The median Gibsonton home was built in 2002 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US1225900, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.8 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US1225900, checked 2026-10-19).
Gibsonton has 6,739 housing units, 0% built before 1940 and 18% before 1980, with 56% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US1225900, checked 2026-10-19).
67% of Gibsonton homes are single-family detached, 2% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 1% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US1225900, checked 2026-10-19).
30% of Gibsonton homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US1225900, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 67% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
No electric utility is on file for Gibsonton on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Florida utility heat pump rebates (Orlando, Tampa), run by OUC / Duke Energy Florida / TECO, is a live program for Florida addresses and publishes its terms without one headline figure (registry row 26 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.ouc.com/solutions-programs/savings/rebates/heat-pump-ac/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Gibsonton address before counting it. With 88% of Gibsonton homes already on electric heat and 3% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.
Heating design temperature: 33F.

That 33F figure is the Hillsborough County cold-day number a Gibsonton heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 33F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Gibsonton home has 5.8 rooms and was built around 2002, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
