Yountville in numbers

Yountville has 3,348 residents (give or take 18) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19), about 2,247 people per square mile.

Yountville is about 59 miles from the Census center point for San Francisco in a straight line and covers 1.49 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).

Median household income in Yountville is $80,342 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US0686930, 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.

Multi-family first

49% of Yountville homes are single-family detached, 10% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 10% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19).

33% of Yountville homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 49% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

Yountville has 18 points fewer detached houses than Napa County overall (67%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US06055, checked 2026-10-19).

Heating fuel in Yountville

Of the 1,489 occupied homes in Yountville, 64% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 34% with electricity and 0% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19).

Gas heats 64% of Yountville against electricity at 34%, and a cold-climate heat pump sized for this market replaces the gas system outright, so the usual quote is a whole-home install.

Yountville has about the Napa County oil share of 0% and 6 points more electric heat than the county's 28% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US06055, checked 2026-10-19).

Your utility and the rebate

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

LADWP Consumer Rebate Program heat pump HVAC, run by LADWP, is a live program for California addresses and publishes its terms without one headline figure (registry row 24 verified 2026-10-14, https://www.ladwp.com/residential-services/assistance-programs/consumer-rebate-program, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Yountville address before counting it. With 34% of Yountville homes already on electric heat and 64% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.

Age of the stock

Yountville has 1,822 housing units, 8% built before 1940 and 38% before 1980, with 22% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19).

Yountville has 3 points more homes built after 2000 than the county's 19% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US06055, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Yountville home was built in 1987 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US0686930, checked 2026-10-19).

Sizing for Napa County

Heating design temperature: 26F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Napa County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 11 to 13 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 26F figure is the Napa County cold-day number a Yountville heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 26F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 64% of Yountville on gas and 34% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Yountville home has 5 rooms and was built around 1987, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
