According to the latest market research study published by P&S Intelligence, the U.S. HVAC furnaces market is projected to grow from USD 861.9 million in 2024 to USD 1,038.3 million by 2032, exhibiting a 2.4 % CAGR between 2025 and 2032. The market remains fragmented, with residential applications leading the way and the Northeast emerging as the largest regional segment while the West posts the fastest growth. Demand is fueled by prolonged, severe winters across much of the country and ongoing urbanization tied to population growth. Additionally, heightened emphasis on energy efficiency and emissions reduction is encouraging both homeowners and commercial users to upgrade to cleaner, smarter furnace systems.
Government policies and incentives aimed at bolstering
emissions reduction and energy savings—combined with the integration of
smart-home capabilities—are major market accelerators. Modern furnaces
increasingly feature remote control via smartphones and voice assistants, along
with hybrid setups that pair gas furnaces with electric heat pumps to enhance
efficiency amid variable climates.
