Top Impacting Factors
Rapid and unpredictable climate changes with rise in temperature along with increase in customer inclination toward comfort requiring control of humidification and proper distribution of air are the major factors driving HVAC system market share. However high installation and maintenance cost of HVAC systems due to need for periodic maintenance and lack of skilled technician for these purposes tend to hamper the HVAC system market growth.
On the other hand, government regulations to install thermally-driven air-conditioners using solar energy with a view to control the quantity of greenhouse gases and other pollutants further boosts the market revenue. Development of IoT-enabled HVAC units that provide real-time information about condition of systems and allow remote-control of connected systems through internet is anticipated to present new pathways to the HVAC system industry.
New Product Launches to Flourish the Market
Leading global market players adopt necessary steps to provide dependable indoor comfort solutions with high performance at affordable price. In December 2019, Trane Inc., a leading provider of residential comfort solutions and remote services, launched the RunTruTM, a ducted heating and cooling equipment to offer customers simple, dependable solutions at an affordable cost. RunTru comprises of a full line of ducted split and packaged units, up to 14SEER air-conditioners (ACs), heat pumps, furnaces, coils and air handlers.
RunTru ACs comprise of the A4AC3 and A4AC4 air-conditioners that are equipped with all-aluminum coils with scroll compressor and operates quietly at 74-76db. They come in full array of cooling capacities and are suitable for any size space. RunTru offers cost-effective A4HP4 heat pumps for residents in mild climate. These units are efficient and durable with 1.5-5ton capacity, 14SEER, all-aluminum coil and scroll compressor. The device is available in variable size options and are used to keep homes comfortable year-round at an affordable price.
Surge in Use of HVAC Systems in Automotive and Industrial Applications
HVAC systems are used in automobiles to clean, cool, heat ventilate, and dehumidify the air entering the cabin depending on the inputs of the operator as well as the electronic sensors. In defense sector, military HVAC systems are used in workstations for direct surveillance drones that operate in harsh conditions such as desert, extreme heat, blowing sand and driving rain.
In February 2020, Johnson Controls, multinational conglomerate focusing on efficiency, controls and automation, introduced a series of 27.5 to 50 ton commercial rooftop units featuring simple, smart controls that delivers maximum system control and extended equipment life. The roof-top units offer greater part-load efficiency by 31% than competitive models and reduces operating cost. The units are equipped with multiple air-flow strategies including two-stage constant volume, two-stage with IntelliSpeed fan control, four-stage variable air volume and four-stage with IntelliSpeed fan control.
In addition, it is equipped with easy-to-use controls along with broad range of heat options such as staged and modulating gas heat, stainless steel heat exchangers and electric heat. It is further simplified as it is equipped with accessible connections, coil cleaning hatches, hinged access panels, convenience outlets, service disconnect switches and optional service valves hence enhancing ease of service during maintenance. The units are optimized to help identify issues incorporated with an optional Mobile Access Portal that offers remote diagnostic monitoring of the device thereby reducing trips to the job site.
