Why do most homes in this corridor use heat pumps instead of furnaces?
Gas furnaces make the most sense in climates with long, cold winters, and this part of Florida doesn't have one.

Most of the original equipment in this corridor is landing in the 10 to 15 year range, shorter than the 20-plus years you'll sometimes hear quoted for older Tampa neighborhoods. It's not a coastal salt-air issue since this corridor is inland, it comes down to run hours and standard builder-grade equipment tiers. Once a system passes that mark, repair costs and efficiency loss usually make replacement the better math.
