Davidson has 15,660 residents (give or take 291) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19), about 2,410 people per square mile.
The quote form takes a ZIP code; for Davidson that is 28036 (Census 2020 ZCTA to county subdivision and ZCTA to place relationship files, ZIP areas at least 20% inside the town, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/rel2020/zcta520/tab20_zcta520_cousub20_natl.txt and https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/rel2020/zcta520/tab20_zcta520_place20_natl.txt, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 5,589 occupied homes in Davidson, 58% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 41% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19).
Davidson has about the Mecklenburg County oil share of 0% and 11 points less electric heat than the county's 52% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US37119, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 58% of Davidson against electricity at 41%, so most quotes here are a partial-home system that carries the shoulder seasons and the summer while the gas boiler stays for the deepest cold, or a whole-home system when the house is ready for it.
The median Davidson home was built in 2005 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 7.1 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19).
Davidson has 6,294 housing units, 2% built before 1940 and 10% before 1980, with 62% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19).
64% of Davidson homes are single-family detached, 1% 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=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19).
20% of Davidson homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US3716400, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 64% 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 Davidson on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Heating design temperature: 22F.

That 22F figure is the Mecklenburg County cold-day number a Davidson heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 22F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 58% of Davidson on gas and 41% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Davidson home has 7.1 rooms and was built around 2005, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
