Bartlett in numbers

Bartlett has 3,281 residents (give or take 18) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19), about 44 people per square mile.

Bartlett is about 76 miles from the Census center point for Manchester in a straight line and covers 74.8 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).

The quote form takes a ZIP code; for Bartlett that is 03812, 03838, 03845 (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).

Median household income in Bartlett is $59,754 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=060XX00US3300303700, 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.

Bartlett is spread out at 44 people per square mile across 74.8 square miles of land, so a long refrigerant line run between the outdoor unit and the farthest indoor head is the sizing question an installer checks first.

Multi-family first

47% of Bartlett homes are single-family detached, 14% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 27% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19).

21% of Bartlett homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 47% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

Bartlett has 30 points fewer detached houses than Carroll County overall (77%) and 20 points more five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 7% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US33003, checked 2026-10-19).

Heating fuel in Bartlett

Of the 1,606 occupied homes in Bartlett, 8% heat with natural gas, 21% with heating oil, 10% with electricity and 40% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19).

Propane leads in Bartlett at 40%, ahead of oil at 21%, and a propane home is the clearest heat pump case on this door because delivered fuel is priced per gallon with no pipe to fall back on.

Bartlett has 21 points less oil heat than Carroll County as a whole, where 42% of homes burn oil, and the same 10% electric share (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US33003, checked 2026-10-19).

Your utility and the rebate

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

NHSaves air source heat pump rebate, run by NHSaves (Eversource, Liberty, Unitil), is a live program for New Hampshire addresses and lists a standard figure of $250 (registry row 6 verified 2026-10-14, https://nhsaves.com/residential/electric-heating-cooling-equipment/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Bartlett address before counting it. With 10% of Bartlett homes already on electric heat and 69% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.

Age of the stock

Bartlett has 4,573 housing units, 5% built before 1940 and 40% before 1980, with 12% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19).

Bartlett has 10 points fewer pre-1940 homes than Carroll County as a whole (15%) and 8 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 20% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US33003, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Bartlett home was built in 1982 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 4.9 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=060XX00US3300303700, checked 2026-10-19).

Sizing for Carroll County

Heating design temperature: -18F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Carroll County row, 99% heating, PDF page 81 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 -18F figure is the Carroll County cold-day number a Bartlett heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at -18F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Bartlett home has 4.9 rooms and was built around 1982, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
