Fuel mix

Of the 22,144 occupied homes in Pinellas Park, 3% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 92% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US1256975, checked 2026-10-19).

Electricity already heats 92% of Pinellas Park homes, ahead of gas at 3%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.

Pinellas Park has about the Pinellas County oil share of 0% and the same 92% electric share (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US12103, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Pinellas Park home was built in 1978 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US1256975, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 4.8 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US1256975, checked 2026-10-19).

52% of Pinellas Park homes are single-family detached, 6% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 19% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US1256975, checked 2026-10-19).

Pinellas Park has 11 points fewer five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 30% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US12103, checked 2026-10-19).

Rebate path

No electric utility is on file for Pinellas Park 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 covers qualifying equipment at $1,150 per system (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 Pinellas Park address before counting it. With 92% of Pinellas Park homes already on electric heat and 4% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.

Median household income in Pinellas Park is $63,432 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US1256975, 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: 37F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Pinellas County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 17 to 20 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 37F figure is the Pinellas County cold-day number a Pinellas Park heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 37F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Pinellas Park home has 4.8 rooms and was built around 1978, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
