Cold-day number

Heating design temperature: 32F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Lafayette Parish row, 99% heating, PDF pages 51 to 54 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 32F figure is the Lafayette Parish cold-day number a Youngsville heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 32F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.

Next step

Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Youngsville home has 5.9 rooms and was built around 2011, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
