Market Dynamics
Introduction
An Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) is a mechanical ventilation system used in buildings to improve indoor air quality while simultaneously conserving energy. It achieves this by transferring heat and humidity from the outgoing exhaust air to the incoming fresh outdoor air. This process helps to maintain a comfortable and healthy indoor environment by ensuring proper ventilation while minimizing the loss of heating or cooling energy.
COVID-19 Impact
The global community is grappling with the negative consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has also had a significant impact on the production of energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) at manufacturing facilities due to sudden lockdown measures. According to various secondary sources, it has been reported that in the United States, around 45% of HVAC companies experienced a decline in their seasonal sales due to reduced installations of energy recovery ventilators and a shortage of workforce. Numerous industries have faced disruptions as a result of the coronavirus and have seen substantial declines in performance until the latter part of 2020. Notably, the HVAC sector has been among the less affected industries due to the crucial need for effective ventilation across various fields. As a result, it is anticipated that the ERV market witnessed a moderate impact during the pandemic and is expected to gradually recover in the upcoming forecast period.
Market Drivers
The market growth rate is being driven by the increasing need to decrease energy usage in homes and businesses, as well as the rising prevalence of environmentally friendly buildings. Moreover, the market will be positively influenced by the increasing emphasis on maintaining indoor air quality and a greater awareness among individuals about the quality of indoor environments. Nevertheless, the growth of the energy recovery ventilator market is hindered by the significant expenses associated with installation and maintenance.
