Of the 2,178 occupied homes in Louisburg, 60% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 38% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US2042875, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 60% of Louisburg against electricity at 38%, 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.
Louisburg has about the Miami County oil share of 0% and 11 points less electric heat than the county's 49% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US20121, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Louisburg home was built in 1997 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US2042875, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.7 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US2042875, checked 2026-10-19).
76% of Louisburg homes are single-family detached, 15% 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=160XX00US2042875, checked 2026-10-19).
With 76% detached houses and 15% in small multi-family buildings, a Louisburg quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 32% of Louisburg homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US2042875, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
Louisburg has 8 points fewer detached houses than Miami County overall (84%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US20121, checked 2026-10-19).
44% of Louisburg housing was built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US2042875, 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.
No electric utility is on file for Louisburg 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 Louisburg is $68,824 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US2042875, 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: 8F.

That 8F figure is the Miami County cold-day number a Louisburg heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 8F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 60% of Louisburg on gas and 38% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Louisburg home has 5.7 rooms and was built around 1997, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
