No electric utility is on file for Palm Coast on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Florida utility heat pump rebates (Orlando, Tampa), run by OUC / Duke Energy Florida / TECO, is a live program for Florida addresses and publishes its terms without one headline figure (registry row 26 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.ouc.com/solutions-programs/savings/rebates/heat-pump-ac/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Palm Coast address before counting it. With 94% of Palm Coast homes already on electric heat and 3% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.

That 36F figure is the Flagler County cold-day number a Palm Coast heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 36F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Palm Coast home has 5.9 rooms and was built around 2003, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
