Of the 9,857 occupied homes in Horsham, 41% heat with natural gas, 17% with heating oil, 37% with electricity and 3% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=060XX00US4209135808, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas leads in Horsham at 41%, but 20% of homes still burn delivered oil or propane, and those 1,971 or so homes are where a heat pump pays back fastest.
Horsham has about the Montgomery County oil share of 15% and 10 points more electric heat than the county's 27% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US42091, checked 2026-10-19).
Horsham has 10,079 housing units, 4% built before 1940 and 50% before 1980, with 13% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=060XX00US4209135808, checked 2026-10-19).
Horsham has 12 points fewer pre-1940 homes than Montgomery County as a whole (16%) and 4 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 17% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US42091, checked 2026-10-19).
The median Horsham home was built in 1980 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=060XX00US4209135808, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6.5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=060XX00US4209135808, checked 2026-10-19).
55% of Horsham homes are single-family detached, 7% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 17% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=060XX00US4209135808, checked 2026-10-19).
29% of Horsham homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=060XX00US4209135808, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 55% 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 Horsham on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
PPL Electric Savings Phase V heat pump rebate, run by PPL Electric Utilities, is a live program for Pennsylvania addresses and lists a standard figure of $225 (registry row 16 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.pplelectricsavings.com/ppl/media/allresrebates_612026.pdf, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Horsham address before counting it. With 37% of Horsham homes already on electric heat and 61% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.
PECO heating and cooling rebates (ASHP), run by PECO, is a live program for Pennsylvania addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $1,950 per system (registry row 17 verified 2026-10-14, https://pecohomerebateprogram.com/heating-cooling-rebates.html, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Horsham address before counting it.
Duquesne Light residential HVAC instant discounts (ASHP), run by Duquesne Light, is a live program for Pennsylvania addresses and lists a standard figure of $215 (registry row 49 verified 2026-10-15, https://dlcinstantdiscount.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/DLC-Residential-HVAC-Product-Incentives-Customers-v260806.pdf, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Horsham address before counting it.
Median household income in Horsham is $122,311 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=060XX00US4209135808, 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: 6F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Montgomery County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 102 to 105 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 6F figure is the Montgomery County cold-day number a Horsham heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 6F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 41% of Horsham on gas and 37% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Horsham home has 6.5 rooms and was built around 1980, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
