Savannah / Griffin
Griffin has 23,761 residents (give or take 43) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19), about 1,692 people per square mile.
Griffin is about 198 miles from the Census center point for Savannah in a straight line and covers 14.045 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 9,538 occupied homes in Griffin, 49% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 48% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 49% of Griffin against electricity at 48%, and a cold-climate heat pump sized for this market replaces the gas system outright, so the usual quote is a whole-home install.
Griffin has about the Spalding County oil share of 0% and 3 points less electric heat than the county's 51% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US13255, checked 2026-10-19).
Griffin has 10,316 housing units, 7% built before 1940 and 55% before 1980, with 22% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19).
Griffin has 3 points more pre-1940 homes than Spalding County as a whole (4%) and 7 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 29% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US13255, checked 2026-10-19). An older stock means more insulation upgrades before the heat pump goes in.
The median Griffin home was built in 1976 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19).
60% of Griffin homes are single-family detached, 20% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 15% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19).
62% of Griffin homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 60% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
Griffin has 17 points fewer detached houses than Spalding County overall (77%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US13255, checked 2026-10-19).
With 62% of Griffin homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US1335324, checked 2026-10-19), most heat pump quotes here are landlord-driven: the landlord signs the contract and picks the equipment, and the tenant sees the lower bill.
No electric utility is on file for Griffin on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Georgia Power Home Energy Improvement Program heat pump conversion, run by Georgia Power, is a live program for Georgia addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $1,850 per system (registry row 28 verified 2026-10-14, https://www.georgiapower.com/residential/solutions/home-solutions.html, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Griffin address before counting it. With 48% of Griffin homes already on electric heat and 50% 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 Griffin is $43,632 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US1335324, 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: 20F.

That 20F figure is the Spalding County cold-day number a Griffin heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 20F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 49% of Griffin on gas and 48% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Griffin home has 5 rooms and was built around 1976, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
