Ventilation Equipment – A US Market Overview

United States Ventilation Equipment Market Trends and Outlook
The U.S. ventilation equipment manufacturing industry experienced a slight contraction of 0.5% in 2020, with production declining to 24.7 million units. This modest downturn showcased the industry's resilience during the significant challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. On the supply side, operational restrictions impacted many businesses, while demand in the residential sector remained relatively strong. The pandemic underscored the critical importance of healthy and filtered indoor air in workplaces, homes, public establishments, and retail spaces. Additionally, historically low interest rates in 2020 and rising per capita disposable income spurred residential construction, which further supported industry sales. As disposable incomes increased, consumers allocated more funds to home improvements, including ventilation upgrades. However, the non-residential construction sector, a key market for new ventilation equipment, faced reduced demand for commercial spaces due to the pandemic's effects.

Demand rebounded sharply in 2021 and 2022, driven by a recovery in commercial and residential construction, government-backed renovation initiatives, and heightened awareness of the importance of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) following the pandemic. This resurgence revitalized a previously stagnant market. Ventilation equipment shipments grew by 6.5% in 2021 as the economy began to stabilize. The U.S. ventilation market saw significant growth during this period, fueled by infrastructure investments, particularly in air handling units and other ventilation products for homes and schools.

However, in 2023, demand declined slightly as economic uncertainty, rising interest rates, and escalating construction costs slowed construction activity across the region. Additionally, the sharp rise in interest rates since mid-2022 further curtailed housing demand, which reduced the need for ventilation equipment during the 2023-2024 period reaching US$5 billion in 2024. Shipment value of the United States ventilation equipment is projected to grow by a CAGR of 5.7% over the forecast period, reaching US$7 billion by 2030, attributed mainly to high growth in sales of high valued HRV/ERV Units.

Major companies operating in the United States Ventilation Equipment market include Air Distribution Technologies, Captiveaire Systems, Greenheck Fan Corporation, Chart Industries, Inc.
