Minneapolis / Burnsville
Burnsville has 64,463 residents (give or take 63) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US2708794, checked 2026-10-19), about 2,585 people per square mile.
Burnsville is about 14 miles from the Census center point for Minneapolis in a straight line and covers 24.937 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 Burnsville that is 55306, 55337 (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 Burnsville is $87,024 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US2708794, 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.
45% of Burnsville homes are single-family detached, 4% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 30% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US2708794, checked 2026-10-19).
35% of Burnsville homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US2708794, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 45% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
Burnsville has 13 points fewer detached houses than Dakota County overall (58%) and 10 points more five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 20% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US27037, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 25,891 occupied homes in Burnsville, 75% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 21% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US2708794, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 75% of Burnsville against electricity at 21%, 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.
Burnsville has about the Dakota County oil share of 0% and 5 points more electric heat than the county's 16% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US27037, checked 2026-10-19).

That -9F figure is the Dakota County cold-day number a Burnsville heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at -9F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 75% of Burnsville on gas and 21% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Burnsville home has 5.8 rooms and was built around 1982, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
