Product Insights
Based on the product, the cooling product segment is expected to witness the highest growth accounting for more than 54% of revenues share in 2020. It is also expected to grow significantly during the projection period. The cooling segment consists of air conditioning units that include unitary air conditioners, room air conditioners, split & packaged systems, cooling towers and portable units. With the evolution of technology in HVAC systems, valuable features such as IoT-integrated HVAC systems, remote operations, and small units are now possible, allowing for cost savings and improved energy efficiency and comfort. The HVAC Equipment Market is expected to increase as a result of all of these factors. Furthermore, rapidly changing climate conditions in the Middle East and Asia Pacific are expected to increase cooling unit demand.
Heating units, such as furnaces, boilers and heat pumps, are extensively used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Some of the major applications of heating equipment includes molding, floor & wall heating, space heating, steam generation, vaporization, and drying. As a result, regions with extremely cold climates and sectors that require heating are the primary drivers of the heating product segment's growth. Ventilation units are also becoming more popular around the world as air pollution levels grow and people become more conscious of the necessity of maintaining a healthy and safe atmosphere. The spike in demand for air purifiers and other ventilation equipment that lowers air contamination is expected to drive the market forward significantly.
End-Use Insights
Based on the end-use, the residential end use segment is expected to witness a significant revenue share during the forecast period amounting for more than 40% of the global share. It is also anticipated to grow remarkably during the forecast period. As the Residential HVAC units are compact and easy to install as compared to commercial or industrial units. The residential segment consists of HVAC units installed in small places such as houses, small stores and restaurants. Furthermore, the change in lifestyle and rising disposable incomes of the consumers are expected to fuel the market growth.
The commercial segment is also estimated to witness the fastest CAGR over the forecast period owing to increase in infrastructure development and surge in urbanization across major regions, generating demand for more office spaces. Commercial HVAC units require a huge amount of room to install, hence they are typically found on the rooftops of major restaurants, theatres, shopping malls, and other commercial spaces. In the commercial places, the HVAC systems are used continuously, and therefore require frequent maintenance. Therefore, retrofitting and replacement demand of these units is the major factor that is anticipated to drive the growth of the market.
Geographical Coverage
Asia Pacific is expected to contribute the largest revenue share of more than 45% in 2020 owing to rising population, rapid urbanization and increasing disposable income levels. Particularly, China dominated the global market and accounted for the highest unit sales in 2020 because of the presence of companies offering low-cost equipment in China and neighboring countries. This is a significant factor that drives the market growth in the Asia Pacific region.
North America contributed significantly amounting for the second-highest revenue share in 2020 and is expected to grow remarkably over the forecast period owing to the promotions by the Government in this region for the use of energy-efficient systems by providing subsidies and tax benefits. For instance, On 22nd September 2021, In North America, Carrier Corporation has introduced a new Toshiba Carrier touch screen controller for variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems that can connect up to 128 indoor units to one simple interface. This controller enables building managers to access their complete VRF system from a single location, removing the need to monitor individual units.
The European region is also estimated to grow significantly owing to the growing tourism sector and real estate industry in the region.
