No electric utility is on file for Rockledge on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
OUC heat pump A/C rebate, run by OUC, is a live program for Florida addresses and up to $1,150 (registry row 26 verified 2026-10-25, https://www.ouc.com/solutions-programs/savings/rebates/heat-pump-ac/, checked 2026-10-25); confirm eligibility for the Rockledge address before counting it.

That 40F figure is the Brevard County cold-day number a Rockledge heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 40F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Rockledge home has 5.9 rooms and was built around 1990, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
