Manchester is about 63 miles from the Census center point for Nashville in a straight line and covers 15.338 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).

Fuel mix

Of the 4,840 occupied homes in Manchester, 28% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 69% with electricity and 2% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4745500, checked 2026-10-19).

Electricity already heats 69% of Manchester homes, ahead of gas at 28%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.

Manchester has about the Coffee County oil share of 0% and 1 points more electric heat than the county's 68% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US47031, checked 2026-10-19).

Housing stock

Manchester has 5,135 housing units, 3% built before 1940 and 44% before 1980, with 34% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4745500, checked 2026-10-19).

The median Manchester home was built in 1985 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4745500, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.6 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4745500, checked 2026-10-19).

69% of Manchester homes are single-family detached, 11% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 9% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4745500, checked 2026-10-19).

49% of Manchester homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4745500, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 69% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

Rebate path

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

Cold-day number

Heating design temperature: 13F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Coffee County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 111 to 115 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 Coffee County cold-day number a Manchester 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.

Next step

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Manchester home has 5.6 rooms and was built around 1985, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
