The HVAC system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $254.07 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to globalization of markets, focus on net-zero buildings, advancements in refrigerants, renewable energy integration, resilience to climate change, evolving building codes. Major trends in the forecast period include rise of smart HVAC systems, integration of artificial intelligence (ai), variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems, hybrid and integrated HVAC solutions, remote monitoring and control, electrification and heat pump adoption.
The increase in construction activities within the commercial and residential sectors is projected to drive the growth of the HVAC system market in the future. The construction sector encompasses both residential and non-residential infrastructure, which includes commercial, industrial, and other types of buildings. HVAC systems are essential mechanical systems that provide thermal comfort and maintain indoor air quality, commonly used in a variety of settings, including industrial, commercial, residential, and institutional buildings. For instance, in March 2024, Atradius, a Netherlands-based insurance company specializing in trade credit insurance, reported that global construction output is expected to rise by 2.0% in 2024, following a 3.7% increase in 2023. Advanced economies are projected to grow by 1.8%, while emerging markets are anticipated to see a 2.2% rise in building activity. Furthermore, non-residential output and civil engineering are expected to grow by 2.8% and 4.4%, respectively, this year. In 2025, global construction is forecasted to grow by 1.8%, with residential construction output rebounding by 2.4% due to improving economic conditions and the impact of more lenient monetary policies. Consequently, the surge in construction activities in both commercial and residential sectors is driving the expansion of the HVAC system market.
The HVAC system market is experiencing growth attributed to the rising manufacturing industry. HVAC systems are crucial in maintaining optimal indoor conditions, including temperature and air quality, in manufacturing facilities. This regulation enhances productivity and overall efficiency in industrial processes. Eurostat reported a 0.2% increase in industrial output in the European area in July 2023, signaling the importance of HVAC systems in supporting manufacturing growth. As the manufacturing industry continues to expand, the demand for HVAC systems is expected to rise, contributing to the market's overall growth.
