HVAC Systems Market Size, Price, Analysis by 2028

The HVAC system market is projected to reach US$ 455.96 billion by 2028 from US$ 246.10 billion in 2022. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.8% during 2022–2028.

There is a growing penetration of IoT enabled devices across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Taking advantage of the same, and to provide their customers with unique solutions, HVAC manufacturers developed the smart HVAC system. These systems utilize wireless technology to communicate with nearby smart devices and adjust the indoor environment automatically.  Additionally, in commercial settings, these systems can aid in energy saving while providing a quieter environment. Furthermore, harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning(ML), such systems can be improvised for predictive maintenance, thus offering better cost savings and longer operational life. Owing to integration of such advanced technologies, adoption of smart HVAC systems has been rising across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. HVAC manufacturers have been entering into collaborations with different ecosystem companies or improving their product offerings. All such factors have been collectively driving the HVAC system market size.

Strategic Insights

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on HVAC System Market Growth

The continuous growth in the COVID-19 patient pool compelled government authorities across the US and other countries to impose stringent travel bans and social restrictions in the first three quarters of 2020, which led to significant disruptions in construction industry and manufacturing plants among others. Containment measures also led to the limited availability of the workforce, which further hampered manufacturing, supply, sales and installation of these systems. Hence HVAC system market size witnessed significant decline during this period. The HVAC system market growth experienced a slowdown owing to the presence of limited workers in manufacturing facilities, temporary shutdown of factories, and reduced demand from residential, commercial, and industrial sectors in 2020.
