That 25F figure is the Bossier Parish cold-day number a Bossier City heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 25F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Bossier City home has 5.4 rooms and was built around 1980, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
