Seattle / Battle Ground
Battle Ground has 21,886 residents (give or take 41) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19), about 2,520 people per square mile.
Battle Ground is about 128 miles from the Census center point for Seattle in a straight line and covers 8.685 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 7,444 occupied homes in Battle Ground, 43% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 54% with electricity and 2% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 54% of Battle Ground homes, ahead of gas at 43%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
Battle Ground has about the Clark County oil share of 0% and 8 points less electric heat than the county's 62% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US53011, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Battle Ground home was built in 2003 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.6 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19).
75% of Battle Ground homes are single-family detached, 7% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 12% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19).
With 75% detached houses and 7% in small multi-family buildings, a Battle Ground quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 27% of Battle Ground homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
Battle Ground has 8 points more detached houses than Clark County overall (67%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US53011, checked 2026-10-19).
57% of Battle Ground housing was built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US5304475, checked 2026-10-19), and homes that recent usually meet the insulation codes in place at the time, so a heat pump sized to the floor plan lands closer to the real load than it would in an older neighborhood.

PSE heat pump rebates (electric resistance to ASHP conversion), run by Puget Sound Energy, is a live program for Washington addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $2,400 per system (registry row 14 verified 2026-10-14, https://www.pse.com/en/rebates/heating/electric-resistance-to-air-source-heat-pump-conversion-rebate, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Battle Ground address before counting it. With 54% of Battle Ground homes already on electric heat and 45% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.
Seattle City Light heat pump instant discounts, run by Seattle City Light, is a live program for Washington addresses and lists a standard figure of $300 (registry row 47 verified 2026-10-16, https://seattle.gov/city-light/residential-services/home-energy-solutions/heating-and-cooling-your-home, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Battle Ground address before counting it.

Median household income in Battle Ground is $104,977 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US5304475, 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: 24F.

That 24F figure is the Clark County cold-day number a Battle Ground heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 24F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Battle Ground home has 5.6 rooms and was built around 2003, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
