The word “efficiency” might as well be a synonym for Boston. The city was the first in the U.S. to require new buildings to achieve net zero carbon emissions standards. It is ranked among the country’s top most energy-efficient cities, and it’s prioritizing heat pumps in its recently-announced Boston Energy Saver Program to help residents and small businesses cut their energy bills while transitioning off fossil fuels. It just made sense for Quilt to make its East Coast debut in this city of high performance.
So, Bostonians, please welcome Quilt to the neighborhood. We feel electrified to bring homes in the greater Boston area the most efficient heating and cooling system on the market, and we’re partnering with Forge, Massachusetts’ local heat pump experts, to execute it flawlessly.
This partnership is what happens when two heat pump-obsessed companies look ahead and see the same future. We come together in pursuit of the same purpose: to get more homes off of fossil fuels and onto the magic of heat pumps.
Quilt and Forge for Boston (and beyond)
After a successful San Francisco Bay Area launch and some serious momentum — we’re expanding to three other West Coast cities — we’re delighted to bring the most-efficient heat pump system into homes on the opposite coast. Homeowners in the greater Boston Area, Eastern Massachusetts, and Central Massachusetts can start booking installations with Forge now.
Forge is our very first Quilt Certified Partner on the East Coast. We trust this team because of their demonstrated expertise, care, and passion for heat pumps and seamless installations. We’ve looked to Forge for guidance from our early days, when Quilt was just an idea, and their invaluable insights into the HVAC industry helped shape our product and company goals. Partnering together in this next venture is a logical step forward in our quest to get more homes off fossil fuels and onto heat pumps.
Every one of Forge’s electricians and HVAC installers are trained and employed in-house, which means every technician is a pro. These established heat pump experts value customer service as much as they do a heat pump with industry-leading efficiency metrics, which is how they deliver a stellar installation experience.
Boston’s coolest summers and coziest winters yet
If you call Boston home, you know the meaning of weather extremes: From icy white winters to wicked hot summers that leave little chance for good hair days, Bostonians must be well-prepared for both ends of the weather spectrum.
And while the outside windchill and humidity may be out of our control, Quilt can make things a whole lot more comfortable at home — all while getting your home off oil or natural gas.
Think heat pumps can’t handle a Boston chill? Quilt is a cold weather powerhouse, retaining 100% heating capacity in freezing temperatures down to -5° F with reliable, continuous heating performance in even colder temperatures.
Take it from Judy, a Massachusetts homeowner who began using Quilt in 2024. “This winter in the Northeast was very cold, with temperatures and wind chills dipping well below 0° F,” she said. “We did not need to turn our oil on at all!”
With industry-leading performance ratings (a SEER2 rating of 25 and HSPF of 12), Quilt is the most efficient way to heat and cool your home.
Plus, Quilt’s smart features help save energy and money and make the system even more useful: Proprietary millimeter wave occupancy detection technology learns household patterns, automatically adjusting comfort settings and cuts down energy use in empty rooms.
Quilt systems achieve 400% efficiency, which means they produce four units of heating or cooling for every one unit of electricity, a benefit that cuts emissions, reduces energy consumption, and lowers your energy bill in the long run. Plus, Quilt’s design aligns with Boston’s practical and understated elegance: The indoor units have customizable panels that can be wallpapered or painted to complement the interior style homeowners have so proudly curated.
