Editorial H VAC & R is a national building industry – going ahead, without HVAC in any application will be next to impossible. HVAC has become a part and parcel of everybody’s life. So, going with consumption rate, probability of Indian HVAC market to cross $7 Billion by 2022 is definitely very high. As the boom is happening in front of us in every industry, we would definitely witness development in the areas of hospitality, residential, commercial and industrial applications which will rise the need of of specialized allied building services like fire & safety and plumbing, air-conditioning & ventilation with a higher level of engineering and coordination between all the services. Moreover, rising disposable income, construction in residential and commercial sectors, extreme climatic conditions giving rise to focus at improving and enhancing energy efficiency, which could be a major contributor to boost Indian HVAC market for the coming years. India got a good lot of manufacturers in HVC equipments, but the industry experiences a lot of imports from neighboring countries with cheaper prices. So, this industry definitely needs an equilibrium in equipments and products which could be manufactured with huge skilled manpower at all levels. HVAC Industry Analysis and Needed Trends Current challenges HVAC industry face is that all manufacturers started using technology from abroad, it created a gloomy atmosphere for local markets and also they have forgotten to focus on the life cycle cost (which is installed cost, operation and maintenance cost). So, energy efficient products can do wonders, though they are marginally expensive to start with, by one unit saved is two units produced. Projects need to be better executed in a well-planned way, deputing right resources and dedicating the time required. A well executed project will always maintain equilibrium without overcooling and will always have lesser failure rates With respect to the issues of Ozone Depletion and Global Warming, studies on refrigerants are n full form, but fulfilling both the conditions is difficult, only few refrigerants strike a fairly good balance. HVAC systems aid in maintaining air quality in commercial and residential establishments by effectively ventilating and filtering it, and ensuring thermal balance. Significant policies on stringent and eco-friendly norms, refrigerant use, advances in technology, safety pre-requisites, and efficient use of products and services have inclined the market players to advance and expand their business strategies and product offerings. These factors in turn play a noteworthy role in forming a pertinent demand for efficient HVAC system. Pooja Jain
