That 14F figure is the Davidson County cold-day number a Goodlettsville heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 14F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Goodlettsville home has 5.7 rooms and was built around 1990, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
