How installing heat pumps works in Marlborough

Local laws, grants, and zoning play key roles in heating/cooling your home—from what you pay to which forms you fill out. Luckily, Forge does the heavy lifting. We handle it all: design, installation, rebates, and service—all adhering to Marlborough's requirements.

Permitting & codes

Marlborough requires building permits for any new HVAC system, including heat pumps. The city enforces the state building code and the stretch code. Electrical permits also required.

Zoning & restrictions

Generally, condensers should be placed in side/rear yards to meet setbacks. Marlborough’s noise bylaw addresses loud mechanical noise, especially at night, with specific dBA restrictions. The Historical Commission may review for downtown properties or older landmarks.

Incentives & rebates

Mass Save rebates for qualifying heat pump installations: up to $8,500 for systems installed in 2026, and up to $7,500 for systems installed from January 1, 2027. 0% HEAT Loan financing through Mass Save for eligible homeowners.

Here’s what our customers say about Forge.

“Forge provided an outstanding experience from start to finish. They were responsive to our specific requests for a heat pump. The team was professional, friendly, and efficient, completing the installation in half the expected time, making things easier for our family. Highly recommend!”

Brenda C.

“Very satisfied with Forge's work and professionalism! They installed a ductless mini-split in our basement, replacing an old unit. While another company gave us a costly quote to relocate it, Forge investigated thoroughly and confirmed it could stay in the original spot. On time, efficient, and a pleasure to work with!”

Kathy C.

“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!”
