North Salt Lake at a glance
Heating and cooling climate
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for the BOUNTIFUL-VAL VERDA, UT station show about 5,725 heating degree days and 989 cooling degree days in a typical year, with about 118 nights at or below freezing and 41 days reaching 90°F or more. Heating demand is far larger than cooling demand here, so the furnace, boiler or heat pump carries most of the load and a breakdown in a cold snap is the most pressing kind of call.
