Heat pump installation in Lebanon, OR - up to $1,000 rebate

Lebanon in Linn County

Lebanon has 19,344 residents (give or take 32) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US4141650, checked 2026-10-19), about 2,699 people per square mile.

Lebanon is about 71 miles from the Census center point for Portland in a straight line and covers 7.166 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).

Fuel mix

Of the 7,650 occupied homes in Lebanon, 39% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 58% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4141650, checked 2026-10-19).

Electricity already heats 58% of Lebanon homes, ahead of gas at 39%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.

Lebanon has about the Linn County oil share of 0% and 4 points more electric heat than the county's 54% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US41043, checked 2026-10-19).

Housing stock

Lebanon has 8,149 housing units, 9% built before 1940 and 50% before 1980, with 30% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4141650, checked 2026-10-19).

Lebanon has 7 points more homes built after 2000 than the county's 23% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US41043, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Lebanon home was built in 1980 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4141650, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.1 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4141650, checked 2026-10-19).

58% of Lebanon homes are single-family detached, 8% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 19% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4141650, checked 2026-10-19).

45% of Lebanon homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4141650, 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.

Lebanon has 5 points fewer detached houses than Linn County overall (63%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US41043, checked 2026-10-19).

45% of Lebanon homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4141650, 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.

Rebate path

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

Energy Trust of Oregon heat pump incentives, run by Energy Trust of Oregon, is a live program for Oregon addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $1,000 per system (registry row 15 verified 2026-10-15, https://www.energytrust.org/incentives/residential-cooling-solutions/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Lebanon address before counting it. With 58% of Lebanon homes already on electric heat and 40% 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 Lebanon is $63,176 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4141650, 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: 22F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Linn County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 100 to 102 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 22F figure is the Linn County cold-day number a Lebanon heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 22F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Lebanon home has 5.1 rooms and was built around 1980, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
