Oklahoma City / Tecumseh
Tecumseh has 6,332 residents (give or take 25) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19), about 422 people per square mile.
Tecumseh is about 36 miles from the Census center point for Oklahoma City in a straight line and covers 15.019 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).
Tecumseh is spread out at 422 people per square mile across 15.019 square miles of land, so a long refrigerant line run between the outdoor unit and the farthest indoor head is the sizing question an installer checks first.
Of the 2,339 occupied homes in Tecumseh, 50% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 49% with electricity and 0% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 50% of Tecumseh against electricity at 49%, 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.
Tecumseh has about the Pottawatomie County oil share of 0% and 6 points more electric heat than the county's 43% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US40125, checked 2026-10-19).
Tecumseh has 2,610 housing units, 5% built before 1940 and 57% before 1980, with 19% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19).
Tecumseh has 4 points fewer pre-1940 homes than Pottawatomie County as a whole (9%) and 8 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 27% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US40125, checked 2026-10-19).
The median Tecumseh home was built in 1977 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.2 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19).
77% of Tecumseh homes are single-family detached, 6% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 8% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19).
With 77% detached houses and 6% in small multi-family buildings, a Tecumseh quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 43% of Tecumseh homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4072650, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
43% of Tecumseh homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4072650, 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.
No electric utility is on file for Tecumseh on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Power Forward with PSO residential rebates (ASHP), run by PSO (Public Service Company of Oklahoma), is a live program for Oklahoma addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $500 per system (registry row 51 verified 2026-10-14, https://powerforwardwithpso.com/programs/heat-pump/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Tecumseh address before counting it. With 49% of Tecumseh homes already on electric heat and 50% 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 Tecumseh is $48,573 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4072650, 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: 13F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Pottawatomie County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 97 to 100 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 13F figure is the Pottawatomie County cold-day number a Tecumseh heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 13F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 50% of Tecumseh on gas and 49% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Tecumseh home has 5.2 rooms and was built around 1977, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
