The global commercial air conditioner (AC) market size reached 18.5 Million Units in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 27.5 Million Units by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4% during 2024-2032. The rising installation of advanced and energy-efficient cooling systems in hospitality establishments, elevating temperatures and humidity levels worldwide, and increasing acceptance of ACs as utility products represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Commercial air conditioners are electrical appliances designed to chill, heat, and dehumidify air in defined, usually enclosed spaces. They rely on a refrigeration cycle to treat the air and work by drawing the warm air from the room and replacing it with cooler air. They generally combine the heating and cooling systems into a single rooftop unit for optimum energy consumption. They aid in maintaining a comfortable temperature and air quality for customers and employees in commercial spaces of all sizes. They are widely available in different cooling capacities, power, and settings, such as chillers, central air conditioning systems, packaged units, and multi-split and ductless mini-split air conditioners. Since these units require a significant amount of space, they are commonly installed on the rooftops of buildings, which also assists in preventing noise from disturbing the inhabitants or business operations. As a result, commercial air conditioners are extensively deployed in various commercial settings, including shopping malls, offices, schools, gyms, hotels, restaurants, shops, and movie theaters.
Due to the rapid growth of the hospitality and travel and tourism industries, there is a surge in the installation of advanced systems in hotels, restaurants, and resorts to improve guest satisfaction, comfort, and retention. This, coupled with the escalating demand for energy-efficient cooling systems, especially from regions with soaring temperature and humidity levels, represents the primary factor driving the market growth. Additionally, the combined effects of ozone layer depletion and constantly worsening climate conditions owing to elevating air pollution levels and global warming have led to a gradual increase in the average temperature worldwide. In line with this, the rising acceptance of air conditioning systems as utility products instead of luxury items on account of climate change has augmented the product demand to maintain cool and comfortable temperatures in commercial spaces. Furthermore, the introduction of stringent government regulations on refrigerants is prompting manufacturers to develop energy-efficient and eco-friendly products. Along with this, the launch of innovative product variants by key players, such as commercial air conditioners embedded with energy-saving features and inverter and air purification technologies, has catalyzed the market growth. Other factors, including rapid urbanization and industrialization, increasing construction of commercial spaces, improving lifestyles, and ongoing technological advancements, are also anticipated to provide a positive thrust to market growth.
