Why heat pumps make sense for multi‑family properties

Heat pumps are the most modern and energy-efficient way to heat and cool multi-family properties. (Yes, they heat AND cool!) The three biggest benefits?

Efficient heating + cooling in one system: Heat pumps can serve individual units or entire buildings. Whether your property has existing ductwork or not, there are flexible options (ducted or ductless) to match your building’s layout.

Cost-effective: You can get up to $10,000 per unit in Mass Save™ rebates, plus long-term energy savings. If you’re switching from oil or electric baseboard, utility bills can drop by as much as 50%.

Environmentally friendly: Heat pumps are better for the planet and improve indoor air quality. No fossil fuel combustion means cleaner air inside and reduced emissions outside.

Here’s what our customers say about Forge.

“We live in Jamaica Plain, on the third floor of a classic triple-decker. Summer and hot spring days can become unbearable. After years of using window units, we decided to look into mini-splits. We interviewed three different contractors and found Forge to offer the most convincing plan. Overall, we couldn’t be happier. Wouldn't hesitate a moment to recommend to anyone who is considering installing heat pumps or mini-splits.”
Mattia A.
“Forge did an awesome job installing my whole home heat pump. The whole process was super smooth and easy from start to finish. The crew that did the install was professional and got everything done on time. Cayden (the crew lead) was extremely informative. Of the many contractors we’ve worked with since buying our new home, Forge has been the best.”
Jacob H.
Forge installed an additional wall-mounted unit to our existing heat pump and went above and beyond by fixing issues left by a previous contractor. They spent extra time to ensure everything was in perfect order. The team was professional, polite, and kept us informed throughout the process. Highly recommend!”
