Canada HVAC Equipment Market Analysis

The Canada HVAC Equipment Market size in terms of shipment volume is expected to grow from 3.38 million units in 2025 to 4.05 million units by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.68% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment are systems for circulating air between indoor and outdoor areas and heating and cooling in residential and commercial buildings. These techniques also filter and clean indoor air and maintain humidity at optimal levels. Government initiatives, such as rebates and tax incentives for energy-efficient HVAC installations, encourage consumers and businesses to invest in newer, more efficient systems. Also, increasing awareness of the importance of indoor air quality and its impact on health is driving the demand for HVAC systems with advanced filtration and ventilation capabilities across the country.

  • There are initiatives in Canada offering rebates for installing energy-efficient equipment such as heating systems and heat pumps. Islanders can access both the Government of Canada's Greener Homes Grant and efficiency PEI rebates. Citizens who fall below the income level of CAD 35,000 are eligible for larger rebates. In May 2023, the Canadian government and the province of Manitoba joined forces to provide millions to upgrade ventilation, heating, and cooling equipment (HVAC) in Manitoban schools and healthcare facilities. These initiatives are likely to boost the growth of HVAC systems.
  • With the country aiming for net-zero emissions by 2050, the Canadian government is encouraging the adoption of energy-efficient HVAC devices, such as heat pumps, air conditioners, and others, which is another primary market growth driver. As a result, large HVAC vendors are active in the region, and their numerous investments in new product launches are assisting the government in meeting its objectives.
  • Further, in terms of heating equipment, though most Canadian households use forced-air heating systems to warm their homes, the demand for heat pumps, which are more energy-efficient than air furnaces, is expected to rise significantly in the coming years. This is driven by favorable government initiatives promoting heat pump adoption. Additionally, ventilation equipment, such as air handling units, is becoming popular as air pollution levels grow and people become more conscious of maintaining a healthy and safe atmosphere.
  • The need to upgrade existing buildings with more efficient HVAC systems to reduce energy consumption and operational costs contributes to market growth. For instance, in November 2023, a joint investment of more than USD 384,000 was made to support retrofits to the Carnegie Building in Saint John. Announced by MP Wayne Long and Mayor Donna Reardon, this project will significantly help to reduce the facility's carbon footprint. The investment will help improve the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system throughout Carnegie Building, creating significant energy savings for a cultural landmark of the city.
  • Canada is also witnessing significant vendor activities in terms of air source heat pump technology. For instance, in December 2023, Terravis Energy, a subsidiary of Worksport Ltd, a Canadian technology company, unveiled a prototype of a residential air source heat pump designed for heating and cooling purposes. The heat pump boasts a coefficient of performance (COP) of approximately 1.8 and a seasonal coefficient of performance (SCOP) of around 3.0. Currently, the prototype utilizes R32 refrigerant, which has a global warming potential (GWP) of 675. Worksport Ltd mentioned that it aligned with the new 2024 mandate in Canada, which requires refrigerants to have a GWP of 750 or lower. These significant advancements will be crucial in determining the region's future availability of heat pump technology.
  • According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), Canada is considering requiring energy performance better than a factor of 1 (corresponding to an equipment efficiency of 100%) for all heating systems by 2030, thereby banning all conventional coal-oil and gas-fired boilers. Such activities are anticipated to stimulate the demand for Heat pumps in the Canadian market.
  • According to a research article from the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology published in 2023, out of 4,500 respondents in Canada, 90% had mechanical ventilation devices over the cooktop (66% of which were vented to the outside), and 30% reported regularly using their device. Amidst increasing wildfires and rising toxic pollution levels during such disasters, there is an increasing need for exhaust and air filtration systems.
  • Manufacturers are facing many efficiency requirements and changes to refrigerants that are primarily driven by the US Department of Energy (DOE), which has a significant impact on the market in Canada. New DOE energy efficiency standards for 2023 were expected to significantly impact all rooftop units sold in Canada. Moreover, the filters, coils, and fins, among others, of an HVAC system, such as an air conditioner, require regular maintenance for the equipment to work efficiently and effectively throughout its operating life. Neglecting necessary maintenance will reduce air conditioning performance and significantly increase energy consumption.
  • The conflict between Russia and Ukraine is expected to impact the electronics industry significantly. The conflict might cause extra disruptions and affect the supply chains of semiconductors, leading to further increases in the prices of electronics. Overall, the impact of the conflict on the electronics industry is expected to be significant. This would hamper the production of the country's HVAC equipment.
