The quote form takes a ZIP code; for Andover that is 55304 (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).

Fuel mix

Of the 10,970 occupied homes in Andover, 89% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 9% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US2701486, checked 2026-10-19).

Gas heats 89% of Andover against electricity at 9%, so most quotes here are a partial-home system that carries the shoulder seasons and the summer while the gas furnace handles the coldest nights, or a whole-home system when the house is ready for it.

Andover has about the Anoka County oil share of 0% and 4 points less electric heat than the county's 13% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US27003, checked 2026-10-19).

Housing stock

Andover has 11,157 housing units, 2% built before 1940 and 23% before 1980, with 33% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US2701486, checked 2026-10-19).

Andover has 6 points more homes built after 2000 than the county's 27% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US27003, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Andover home was built in 1994 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US2701486, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 7.6 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US2701486, checked 2026-10-19).

92% of Andover homes are single-family detached, 0% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 3% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US2701486, checked 2026-10-19).

With 92% detached houses and 0% in small multi-family buildings, a Andover quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 6% of Andover homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US2701486, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.

Andover has 22 points more detached houses than Anoka County overall (70%) and 10 points fewer five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 13% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US27003, checked 2026-10-19).

Only 6% of Andover homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US2701486, 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.

Rebate path

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

Xcel Energy MN residential rebates 2024-2026, run by Xcel Energy, is a live program for Minnesota addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $2,000 per system (registry row 13 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.xcelenergy.com/staticfiles/xe-responsive/Programs%20and%20Rebates/Residential/24-1-201%20MN%20Res%20Rebate%20Summary%20Information%20Sheet.pdf, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Andover address before counting it. With 9% of Andover homes already on electric heat and 90% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.

CenterPoint Energy MN ducted ASHP rebate, run by CenterPoint Energy, is a live program for Minnesota addresses and lists a standard figure of $1,100 (registry row 46 verified 2026-10-16, https://www.centerpointenergy.com/en-us/savings-solutions/energy-efficiency/ducted-air-source-heat-pump, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Andover address before counting it.

Median household income in Andover is $137,593 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US2701486, 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.

Cold-day number

Heating design temperature: -11F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Anoka County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 60 to 64 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 -11F figure is the Anoka County cold-day number a Andover heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at -11F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 89% of Andover on gas and 9% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Andover home has 7.6 rooms and was built around 1994, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
