Unit Heater Market: Industry Expert View on Future Growth and Market Trends
A unit heater is a self-contained heating appliance that can run on a variety of energy sources. Hot water, steam, No. 2 fuel oil, propane, and natural gas are a few energy sources that could be used. A heat exchanger, through which air from the heated room is blown, is usually included in the equipment. A blade fan or a squirrel cage fan can be used for this purpose. A squirrel cage fan has much higher air flows and blowing distances. Large spaces, such as workshops and engine rooms, are heated using unit heaters. The number of unit heaters used for heating increases as the size of the facility that must be kept at a certain temperature rises. Factors contributing to the market growth include the growing commercial sector across North America and Europe, increasing demand for energy-efficient unit heaters, and rising integration of smart technologies in unit heaters.
Unit heaters are available in various sizes and shapes. The next-generation unit heaters are designed to emphasize comfort, ease of use, automated operations, and remote control. Currently, unit heaters are integrated with warning indicators, fireproof materials, and explosion-proof features to make them user-friendly. Major manufacturers such as Qbino and Armstrong are working on incorporating intelligent technologies in their unit heaters. Heating equipment offered by Qbino features easy scheduling, remote access, energy tracking, color touchscreen, and sensor technologies.
Manufacturers such as Goodman Manufacturing Company and Qbino are also focusing on integrating the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (Al) in their unit heaters. Amana—a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment manufacturing company—is engaged in integrating intelligent communication technology in unit heaters to automate operations to offer a better consumer experience with high comfort. Furthermore, the incorporation of smart thermostats, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, and intelligent circuit boards is expected to raise the demand for smart unit heaters during the forecast period. For instance, unit heaters integrated with Al and machine learning better understand the consumer usage pattern and evaluate the time and duration of the usage, which further eliminates the user requirement to operate the unit heater. Thus, the integration of smart technologies with unit heaters is expected to become a significant trend in the unit heater market.
The unit heater market is segmented based on product type, installation, application, and geography. Based on product type, the unit heater market is segmented into gas fired, hydronic, electric, and others. Based on installation, the market is segmented into horizontal unit heater, vertical unit heater, and suspended unit heater. Based on application, the unit heater market is segmented into commercial, industrial, and residential. Based on geography, the market is segmented into North America and Europe.
Airtherm (Mestek Inc), Armstrong International Inc, Beacon Morris, Modine Inc, KING ELECTRICAL MFG CO, Kroll Energy GmbH, Reznor HVAC (Nortek), Thermon Industries Inc, Trane Technologies Plc, and Turbonics Inc are among the key unit heater market players profiled during this market study. In addition to these players, several other important market players were studied and analyzed during this market research study to get a holistic view of the North American and European markets and its ecosystem.
