Rebate path

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

Cold-day number

Heating design temperature: 2F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Montgomery County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 94 to 97 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 2F figure is the Montgomery County cold-day number a Huber Heights heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 2F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 64% of Huber Heights on gas and 33% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Huber Heights home has 6 rooms and was built around 1976, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
