Beautiful Heat: Quilt Turns Decarbonization Into Desire

A few months ago, Quilt became the first company in residential HVAC history to deliver an over-the-air upgrade—making its systems 20% more powerful overnight.

Quilt is rethinking how homes heat and cool themselves. Its software-driven, ductless HVAC system blends intelligent controls, high-efficiency heat pumps, and a design language that belongs in modern architecture. By bringing the pace and polish of consumer technology to an overlooked industry, Quilt transforms comfort into a catalyst for electrification.

Co-founder and CEO Paul Lambert joins Josh Dorfman to share how Quilt’s approach—what he calls “technical arbitrage”—adapts proven innovations from EVs and connected devices to reimagine the American home for the electric age.

This episode explores how software, design, and emotion converge to make clean energy aspirational and why desire may be the most powerful tool in decarbonization.
