Of the 11,916 occupied homes in Deptford, 83% heat with natural gas, 4% with heating oil, 10% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=060XX00US3401517710, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 83% of Deptford against electricity at 10%, 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.
Deptford has 4 points less oil heat than Gloucester County as a whole, where 8% of homes burn oil, and 1 points less electric heat than the county's 11% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US34015, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Deptford home was built in 1976 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=060XX00US3401517710, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6.2 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=060XX00US3401517710, checked 2026-10-19).
73% of Deptford homes are single-family detached, 5% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 13% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=060XX00US3401517710, checked 2026-10-19).
With 73% detached houses and 5% in small multi-family buildings, a Deptford quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 24% of Deptford homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=060XX00US3401517710, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
No electric utility is on file for Deptford 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 Deptford is $91,706 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=060XX00US3401517710, 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: 11F.

That 11F figure is the Gloucester County cold-day number a Deptford heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 11F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 83% of Deptford on gas and 10% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Deptford home has 6.2 rooms and was built around 1976, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
