Fuel mix

Of the 5,445 occupied homes in Cedarburg, 81% heat with natural gas, 1% with heating oil, 16% with electricity and 0% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US5513375, checked 2026-10-19).

Gas heats 81% of Cedarburg against electricity at 16%, 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.

Cedarburg has about the Ozaukee County oil share of 2% and 1 points less electric heat than the county's 17% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US55089, checked 2026-10-19).

Cedarburg has 5,704 housing units, 11% built before 1940 and 55% before 1980, with 21% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US5513375, checked 2026-10-19).

Cedarburg tracks Ozaukee County on housing age, with the county at 11% pre-1940 and 22% post-2000 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US55089, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Cedarburg home was built in 1977 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US5513375, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6.2 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US5513375, checked 2026-10-19).

63% of Cedarburg homes are single-family detached, 10% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 22% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US5513375, checked 2026-10-19).

38% of Cedarburg homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US5513375, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 63% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

Rebate path

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

Focus on Energy air source heat pump instant discount (ratepayer), run by Focus on Energy, is a live program for Wisconsin addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $900 per system (registry row 20 verified 2026-10-07, https://assets.focusonenergy.com/production/docs/trade-ally/TAS-Trade-Ally-Solutions-Rebates-Overview-20260101_CLEAN.pdf, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Cedarburg address before counting it. With 16% of Cedarburg homes already on electric heat and 82% 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 Cedarburg is $84,896 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US5513375, 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: 0F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Ozaukee County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 137 to 140 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 0F figure is the Ozaukee County cold-day number a Cedarburg heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 0F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 81% of Cedarburg on gas and 16% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Cedarburg home has 6.2 rooms and was built around 1977, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
