Manchester / Jackson
Jackson has 897 residents (give or take 188) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19), about 13 people per square mile.
Jackson is about 84 miles from the Census center point for Manchester in a straight line and covers 66.77 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 Jackson that is 03846 (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).
Jackson is spread out at 13 people per square mile across 66.77 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.
Of the 443 occupied homes in Jackson, 0% heat with natural gas, 26% with heating oil, 10% with electricity and 43% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19).
Propane leads in Jackson at 43%, ahead of oil at 26%, 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.
Jackson has 16 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).
Jackson has 1,006 housing units, 16% built before 1940 and 50% before 1980, with 17% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19).
Jackson has 3 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 Jackson home was built in 1980 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.4 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19).
86% of Jackson homes are single-family detached, 8% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 2% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19).
With 86% detached houses and 8% in small multi-family buildings, a Jackson quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 9% of Jackson homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
Jackson has 9 points more detached houses than Carroll County overall (77%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US33003, checked 2026-10-19).
Only 9% of Jackson homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=060XX00US3300338260, checked 2026-10-19), so nearly every quote here is the resident talking to the installer directly, and the rebate goes to the person living in the house.
New Hampshire Electric Cooperative lists Jackson among the New Hampshire communities it serves for electricity (New Hampshire Department of Energy, utilities by city and town, https://www.energy.nh.gov/utilities-providers/utilities-city-town, checked 2026-10-19).
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 Jackson address before counting it. With 10% of Jackson 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.
Median household income in Jackson is $117,986 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=060XX00US3300338260, 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: -18F.

That -18F figure is the Carroll County cold-day number a Jackson 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.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Jackson home has 5.4 rooms and was built around 1980, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
