## Resource

If all U.S. single-family homes adopted heat pumps, it would equal taking 32 million cars off the road. But we need to 10x the current adoption pace by 2030. Quilt CEO Paul Lambert explains how his team from Google, Apple, and Nest is making heat pumps irresistible — with sleek design, 25+ SEER2 efficiency, and software that makes systems smarter over time. He also discusses Quilt's rapid scaling strategy, its $20M Series B funding round, and the new 3-zone system.
