Though the construction and HVAC equipment markets worldwide are projected to experience massive growth in the coming years, the global warm air heater market is unlikely to follow the same trend during the forecast period. The market growth is predicted to be sluggish, with demand expected mainly from retrofitting activities in the commercial sector and new demand from the residential sector.The stringent energy efficiency directives across countries worldwide and the threat of cheaper and cost-efficient substitutes pose major challenges to the growth trajectory of warm air heaters. If vendors in the market fail to introduce a revolutionary product in the near future, the market could see a steep decline in its growth and eventually phase out completely beyond the forecast period.At present, EMEA is the leading region in the global warm air heater market with the highest number of installations; however, APAC is expected to experience the fastest growth, riding on possible demand from Chinese infrastructure developments.In this industry research report, Technavio covers the present scenario and growth prospects of the global warm air heater market for 2016-2020.
