HVAC Residential Solution
A major water heater manufacturer was looking to upgrade its existing combustion blower to an ENERGY STAR® high efficiency system. The manufacturer desired a unit with enhanced maintenance that would reduce downtime, and provide communications for better control and diagnostics. It also wanted a pre-mix blower to reduce NO2 emissions and deliver an optimum air-fuel ratio.

Segment Analysis
United States Industry Overview
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment is typically installed in new buildings to regulate climate and provide ventilation. Replacements of existing HVAC equipment is another major market for industry operators. Over the past five years, as disposable incomes increased, consumers had more funds available to invest in home improvements, which included HVAC upgrades. In addition, government regulations, tax incentives and realized savings from replacing old HVAC systems with new energy-efficient equipment led to increasing demand for HVAC replacements in the past five years.
Value of Residential Construction
Residential construction is a key market for industry products because new homes are typically built with related systems. Therefore, an increase in housing construction boosts demand for industry products. The value of residential demand is projected to increase through 2021.
Regal Rexnord Brands
Association
Regal Rexnord actively supports and participates in industry leading trade associations, such as the Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) and the American Society Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), that promote the residential HVAC industry and its member organizations.
