Equipment for HVAC Market COVID-19 Analysis

A decline in revenue generation from the power industry has had a substantial impact on the global economy. Private energy generation companies with no long-term power purchase agreements are expected to be the hardest hit during this period due to electricity demand reduction. As the demand for coal and gas has declined, coal mining companies and gas exporting nations have witnessed drastic declines in revenue generation. This has substantially impacted economic activities, causing job losses and salary deductions worldwide across supply chains.

Many utilities in developing nations that still depend on manual meter readings for generating monthly bills are expected to incur losses in terms of revenue collection during the lockdown period. Revenue collection in such countries will decline during this period having a negative economic impact. For instance, many utilities in India are still dependent on manual meter readings, which has reduced revenue collection across the country. As a measure to increase revenue generation, the Indian government has increased taxes on petrol and diesel. This is expected to have a notable impact on the Indian citizens, and prices for many other commodities such as vegetables and pulses are dependent on the costs incurred in the supply chain. Such hikes in prices will have a negative impact on the low and middle-income social classes, which have limited resources during the crisis. As economic activities are further slowing down globally, global economies are expected to witness a further decline in revenues until the pandemic crisis stabilizes.

HVAC equipment are essential equipment for various industries. However, the global pandemic has induced a steep decline in the demand for HVAC equipment market, especially in economies with complete lockdowns. As these are essential equipment for utilities and many other essential industries, manufacturers are still supplying the HVAC equipment to prevent the risk of fire. However, the market has witnessed a steep decline from end-use industries such as residential, commercial, and transportation. This is due to the decline in residential and commercial construction. Furthermore, the automotive manufacturing industry is at a standstill due to the lockdown, reducing the demand for HVAC equipment at the showrooms and manufacturing centers. Additionally, due to lockdowns globally, public and private transportation usage has declined considerably, drastically reducing vehicle breakdowns, leading to a further decline in the demand for HVAC equipment market. However, as many economies have resumed economic activities in June, the demand for HVAC equipment is expected to gradually increase their average growth rate by the second quarter of 2021.

Equipment for HVAC Market Dynamics

The Equipment for HVAC Market is driven by factors such as the increasing need for fire safety solutions and stringent government regulations. However, the cases of product failure are expected to restrain the market growth to a certain extent. On the other hand, the increasing product demand from emerging economies and the rapid industrialization are expected to create growth opportunities for the Equipment for HVAC Market players.

Equipment for HVAC System Market Drivers

• Increasing need for fire safety solutions

Fire safety solutions are essential in ensuring safety and preventing fatalities and property loss. Over the past few years, there have been several fire-related accidents in residential, commercial, and industrial spaces that have led to several deaths. Hence, it becomes necessary for architects and engineers to install fire safety solutions in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings to avoid such losses. HVAC and fire protection insulation systems are the fire-rated ventilation ducts to avoid fire and thus guard the property against fire hazards. The fire ductwork systems are designed to extract hot gases, smoke, and flames to ensure safety and protect the buildings, property, and individuals. HVAC and fire protection insulation systems are implemented in factories, public places, malls, and industrial facilities. These systems must comply with the fire codes and norms legislated by the government or city, state, and federal regulatory authorities. Moreover, HVAC and fire protection insulation systems prevent the spread of fire from one area to another. These systems must be tested periodically to ensure better operability during an emergency and protect assets in the premises, limiting the extent of the loss. Thus, the concerns regarding the safety of individuals have contributed to a growing need for fire safety solutions, which is expected to drive the growth of the global equipment for HVAC market during the forecast period.

Equipment for HVAC System Market Opportunity

• Increasing demand from emerging economies

The population growth and increase in per capita disposable income in emerging economies, such as South Africa, Qatar, Indonesia, Chile, and India, have led to the rapid development of the residential, commercial, industrial, and public sectors. These countries focus on developing various commercial, industrial, and public places as part of the country's economic growth. The increasing applications of HVAC and fire protection insulation systems in developing countries are expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for the manufacturers offering HVAC systems and enable them to expand their operations in economies with significant growth potential. Additionally, government initiatives such as FDI regulations and the deregulation of the pricing policies in these countries are likely to present significant investment opportunities for HVAC equipment vendors.

Equipment for HVAC System Market Restraints

• Cases of product failure

The effective working of HVAC and fire protection insulation systems enhances the safety of residential, commercial, industrial, and public places, reducing the losses of lives and money. HVAC and fire protection insulation prevent the fire from spreading. The proper selection of a ductwork system is complex due to its construction, type, building dimensions, orientations, and other configurations. However, various issues, such as stability, insulation, and integrity, cause the failure of HVAC systems. Such issues cause the ducts to collapse, crack, form holes, or cause smoke leakage. Thus, many end users focus on selecting ducts as per their needs and investing in periodic repair & maintenance to ensure effective functioning. Improper functioning of HVAC and fire protection insulation systems also leads to unnecessary operational costs and safety issues. Thus, cases of product failure are expected to restrain the growth of the global equipment for HVAC market to a certain extent during the forecast period.
