North America HVAC Filter Change Service Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Type (Product, Service), By Filter Type (HEPA Filters, Washable Filters), By Equipment Type, By Application, By Country, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030
North America HVAC Filter Change Service Market Growth & Trends
The North America HVAC filter change service market size is anticipated to reach USD 5.2 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2024 to 2030. The market is driven by increasing construction activities coupled with the presence of stringent regulations supporting installation of HVAC systems and timely replacement of their air filters. Moreover, the rise in awareness regarding the importance of indoor air quality maintenance is expected to further propel the market demand over the forecast period.
The demand for HVAC filter change services in the U.S. and Canada is expected to be driven by the increasing construction of new residential, commercial, and industrial buildings in these countries, along with the renovation of existing ones. HVAC filters such as HEPA filters, disposable filters, UV light filters, pleated filters, and electrostatic filters are used for air filtration depending on the air quality standards to be adhered with and the types of suspended particles present in it. In residential settings, such as apartments or single-family housing units, central forced air systems are used that usually accommodate rectangular filters. These filters can be installed underneath the furnace fans or into the ceilings or wall vents.
Moreover, most residential HVAC systems are equipped with disposable air filters, which have a MERV rating of 1-4. However, according to the California Air Resource Board, premium one-inch disposable filters with MERV 13 ratings and costing up to USD 25 are becoming increasingly common in the U.S. owing to the higher filtration efficiency. These aforementioned factors are anticipated to augment the market demand in the coming years.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the construction value in the U.S. grew by 11.8% in 2022 compared with the value in 2021. The non-residential construction comprises the development of lodges, commercial places, offices, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, religious buildings, amusement & recreation centers, communication networks, transportation infrastructure, etc. The growing population in the U.S. and Canada is driving the demand for affordable housing units and infrastructures and leading to the expansion of urban areas. In addition, the requirement for proper heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems in buildings in expanding urban areas in these countries is expected to surge the installation of new HVAC systems and drive the growth of HVAC filter change service industry in the U.S. and Canada over the forecast period.
Moreover, installing Internet of Things (IoT) sensors on HVAC systems offers capabilities of real-time data recording and efficient functioning of air filtration in HVAC systems. Smart HVAC incorporates IoT technology, which plays a significant role in enhancing the functioning and overall performance of HVAC systems. There are various components in smart HVAC systems that can vary depending on the type and complexity of the systems. Some of these components include cloud & dashboard, IoT gateway controller, IoT sensors & actuators, and HVAC equipment.
Manufacturers are seeking product launches, mergers & acquisitions, and expansions to produce new products. For instance, in July 2023, Sensirion AG introduced SEN6x, which combines multiple sensors and measures up to nine environmental parameters namely PM10, PM1, PM2.5, PM4, relative humidity, temperature, volatile organic compound index, CO2 or HCHO, and NOx index. This sensor simplifies the integration, cost reduction, and allows customization as per the requirement.
North America HVAC Filter Change Service Market Report Highlights
- Based on type, the product segment led the market in 2023 with a revenue share of 72.9%. HVAC air filters are used to remove suspended air particles and hazardous microorganisms from the air. This filtered air is passed through the HVAC air handling units and ducts to maintain the required air characteristics such as moisture content and temperature. Based on the end-use requirement, these air filters are designed to attain the particular Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) and airflow. The air filters are classified based on the MERV value
- Based on filter type, the electrostatic filter segment held a revenue share of 23.2% in 2023. These filters are used in industrial settings to protect manufacturing equipment from suspended air particles. They are also used in manufacturing plants, such as chemical processing plants and food & beverage manufacturing plants, where air quality is required to be maintained with the highest level of purity standards
- Based on equipment type, the central AC filter segment led the market in 2023 with a revenue share of 37.9%. Central air conditioning cools and removes moisture from the air of an entire building by supplying the conditioned air with the help of ducts and vents. It is a convenient and cost-effective method by which uniform temperature and moisture can be maintained in commercial, residential, and industrial spaces. Air filters are used in the central AC systems to improve the air quality
- In terms of application, the residential segment is projected to witness a CAGR of 4.5% over the forecast period. HVAC filters used in residential buildings are designed to filter out dust, pollen, and bacteria. They filter the polluted air going inside buildings, thereby protecting the internal components of air-conditioning systems. Moreover, in residential HVAC systems, washable and UV light filters are used to clean solid suspended particulates, bacteria, and mildew from the air
- Based on region, Canada is anticipated to witness a CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period. According to Statistics Canada, the total investment in industrial construction increased from USD 0.6 million in January 2022 to USD 0.8 million in December 2022. Thus, increasing investment in building construction is anticipated to propel the demand for HVAC systems, which is further expected to drive the demand for filter change services over the forecast period
