Orlando / Windermere
Windermere is about 18 miles from the Census center point for Orlando in a straight line and covers 1.905 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).
Windermere has 3,086 residents (give or take 51) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19), about 1,620 people per square mile.
Of the 1,184 occupied homes in Windermere, 7% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 92% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19).
Windermere has about the Orange County oil share of 0% and 1 points more electric heat than the county's 91% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US12095, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 92% of Windermere homes, ahead of gas at 7%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
The median Windermere home was built in 1989 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 8.3 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19).
Windermere has 1,359 housing units, 2% built before 1940 and 34% before 1980, with 18% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19).
Windermere has 22 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 40% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US12095, checked 2026-10-19).
98% of Windermere homes are single-family detached, 0% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 0% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19).
With 98% detached houses and 0% in small multi-family buildings, a Windermere quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 4% of Windermere homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
Windermere has 44 points more detached houses than Orange County overall (54%) and 30 points fewer five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 30% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US12095, checked 2026-10-19).
Only 4% of Windermere homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US1278050, checked 2026-10-19), so nearly every quote here is the resident talking to the installer directly, and the rebate goes to the person living in the house.
No electric utility is on file for Windermere 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 Windermere address before counting it. With 92% of Windermere homes already on electric heat and 8% 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 Windermere is $177,778 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US1278050, 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: 38F.

That 38F figure is the Orange County cold-day number a Windermere heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 38F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Windermere home has 8.3 rooms and was built around 1989, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
