Electricity already heats 97% of St. Augustine Beach homes, ahead of propane at 2%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
St. Augustine Beach has about the St. Johns County oil share of 0% and 9 points more electric heat than the county's 88% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US12109, checked 2026-10-19).

No electric utility is on file for St. Augustine Beach 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 St. Augustine Beach address before counting it. With 97% of St. Augustine Beach 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.
Heating design temperature: 34F.

That 34F figure is the St. Johns County cold-day number a St. Augustine Beach heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 34F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median St. Augustine Beach home has 5.4 rooms and was built around 1987, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
