 Market Size & Trends

The U.S. heating equipment market size was valued at USD 4.21 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2% from 2023 to 2030. Increasing investment in real estate and rapid industrialization is projected to drive demand over the forecast period. Growing preference for energy-efficient certified products is anticipated to be one of the major factors influencing growth over the forecast period. Rising energy consumption in the industrial and residential sectors is projected to drive the preference for solutions that reduce overall operational costs and improve energy savings.

U.S. heating equipment Market size and growth rate, 2023 - 2030

As reported by the U.S. Census Bureau, construction expenditures in the U.S. amounted to USD 22.2 billion in 2022, exhibiting a growth from USD 19.8 billion in the preceding year. Growing construction spending coupled with increasing repair & replacement activities are predicted to boost heating solutions growth. The construction sector in the U.S. is focused on developing sustainable and energy-efficient structures. The Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) is a recognized green building certification program that is established by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).

LEED focuses on reducing energy consumption by designing and developing energy-efficient projects. HVAC systems must comply with the requirements outlined by New Buildings Institute, Inc.’s publication titled “Advanced Buildings: Energy Benchmark for High-Performance Buildings.” Such policies have further enabled the development and installation of environmentally sustainable solutions.     

A noteworthy trend within the industry is the emergence of intelligent and interconnected heating systems. These advanced systems provide improved control and automation capabilities, empowering users to efficiently manage energy consumption and reduce expenses.

Application Insights

The industrial segment dominated the market and held the largest revenue share of 44.8% in 2022. Heating systems are widely used in the mining, automotive, and food & beverage industries. Increasing investment in developing the manufacturing sector of the U.S. is projected to influence demand over the coming years positively. According to an update from THE FINANCIAL TIMES LTD. in April 2023, companies have committed to investing over USD 200 billion in manufacturing projects within the U.S. since Congress granted significant subsidies in the previous year. These proactive initiatives and substantial investments are anticipated to be influential drivers of growth within this sector throughout the projected period.

U.S. heating equipment Market share and size, 2022

The commercial segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period. Heating equipment in office buildings includes systems such as central heating, boilers, and furnaces. The growth of this segment is influenced by factors like new construction, renovation projects, and energy efficiency requirements.

U.S. Heating Equipment Market Trends

The U.S. heating equipment market is projected to grow on account of increasing construction growth and favorable repair and replacement activities. In the production and processing of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, mining, oil and gas, and the automotive industry, heating equipment is crucial. The demand for products that are certified as energy efficient drives the market growth in the U.S. The demand for solutions that reduce operating costs and improve energy savings is expected to increase as energy consumption in the industrial and residential sectors continues to rise.

The increasing growth of the housing and construction sectors for single and multi-unit dwellings is expected to boost the demand for heating equipment. In addition, higher consumer spending habits are projected to increase the revenue of restaurants and other commercial establishments, which is expected to drive the demand for heating equipment in the commercial sector.

Heat pumps, boilers, furnaces, and unitary heaters are among the heating appliances that are predicted to have rapid growth in the United States. One of the key reasons driving the expansion of this market is the combination of rapid industrialization and rising demand for more advanced equipment. The rising need for home heating solutions that are energy efficient is also anticipated to increase market demand in the coming years.

Growing disposable income coupled with cheaper financing options has given companies more cash in hand to upgrade their capital equipment in offices, production facilities, and stores. Consequently, it is easier to invest in expensive equipment upgrades while loan rates are low, and hence, it is predicted to augment the market growth for heating equipment in the U.S.

The cost of installation is accompanied by high labor costs and the cost of drilling & excavation. A heating system requires fine-tuning and custom fabrication of parts during installation to ensure that it works smoothly, or the system is likely to fail prematurely. The cost of replacing old heating equipment includes removal & disposal of the old unit, lines, ducts, and wiring needed for the new system to run properly, thus limiting the demand for heating equipment.

Several policies such as The Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) is established by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), which is a recognized green building certification program LEED focuses on reducing energy consumption by designing and developing energy-efficient projects. Such policies further enhance the development and installation of heating solutions.

Equipment Insights

The heat pumps segment accounted for the largest revenue share of 34.1% in 2022. Heat pumps are used for temperatures with moderate warming and cooling requirements. It can provide equivalent area conditioning at one-fourth the operating cost than conventional HVAC systems. With a growing emphasis on energy efficiency and sustainability, heat pumps have gained popularity due to their high energy efficiency ratings. Government regulations and incentives promoting energy-efficient technologies have also encouraged the adoption of heat pumps.

The boiler segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.0% over the forecast period. Boilers are used for various applications such as water heaters, power generation, cooking, central heaters, and sanitation. They are extensively preferred in the commercial, institutional, industrial, as well as the educational sector.

Boilers are further segmented into two broad categories namely, water boilers and steam boilers. Hot water remains essential to daily requirements in kitchens and laundries. The increasing population & rapid development of housing projects are expected to augment the growth of water boilers over the coming years. Steam boilers have been gaining preference in the domestic and industrial segments owing to ample consumption of steam in the industrial and commercial sectors. Boilers with a capacity ranging from 10-50 MMBtu/hr are generally used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. They find major applications in the food industry and other manufacturing units.
