Las Vegas / Lovelock
Lovelock has 1,481 residents (give or take 359) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19), about 1,720 people per square mile.
Lovelock is about 324 miles from the Census center point for Las Vegas in a straight line and covers 0.861 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 587 occupied homes in Lovelock, 75% heat with natural gas, 1% with heating oil, 12% with electricity and 0% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 75% of Lovelock against electricity at 12%, 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.
Lovelock has about the Pershing County oil share of 0% and 9 points less electric heat than the county's 21% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US32027, checked 2026-10-19).
Lovelock has 742 housing units, 20% built before 1940 and 50% before 1980, with 8% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19).
Lovelock has 10 points more pre-1940 homes than Pershing County as a whole (10%) and 6 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 14% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US32027, checked 2026-10-19). An older stock means more insulation upgrades before the heat pump goes in.
The median Lovelock home was built in 1980 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 4.7 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19).
58% of Lovelock homes are single-family detached, 19% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 12% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19).
46% of Lovelock homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 58% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
Lovelock has 21 points more detached houses than Pershing County overall (37%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US32027, checked 2026-10-19).
46% of Lovelock homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US3243000, checked 2026-10-19), so the market splits between resident-led jobs where the occupant picks the system and landlord-led jobs where they do not, and the rebate paperwork differs.
No electric utility is on file for Lovelock on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Median household income in Lovelock is $42,074 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US3243000, 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: 5F.

That 5F figure is the Pershing County cold-day number a Lovelock heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 5F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 75% of Lovelock on gas and 12% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Lovelock home has 4.7 rooms and was built around 1980, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
