Advancements in the HVAC industry help keep our Bend, OR, homes comfortable, safe, and healthy in new and innovative ways. Some trends are emerging for 2025, so let’s take a look at what you can expect.
1. Predicting Maintenance and Repairs
Thanks to new AI and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, the HVAC industry is shifting toward predictive maintenance and repair needs. This innovation enables systems to provide real-time data on performance, efficiency, and indoor air quality (IAQ), allowing for more precise predictions about when a unit will need maintenance. By spotting a decrease in efficiency, an increase in energy consumption, or IAQ issues early on, technicians can perform more affordable maintenance and repairs before a problem becomes complicated and costly. This trend will continue to grow, helping homeowners save on energy and repair costs while improving overall comfort.
2. Better Monitoring
We’ve seen a big shift in the types of smart thermostats and monitoring devices available. By upgrading your home’s monitoring and control technology, you can ensure more precise heating and cooling and optimize energy usage. These devices now offer advanced features that monitor not only temperature but also humidity, IAQ, and energy consumption. Smart systems are also equipped with machine learning algorithms that adjust HVAC settings automatically based on your usage patterns. Additionally, this level of monitoring helps you control indoor air quality, which directly impacts your health and well-being, as it can help manage particulate matter concentrations and other contaminants.
3. Air Decontamination
It’s no secret that our indoor air is often unhealthier than the air outside. We’re seeing more homes incorporate advanced air purification systems, UV-C light technology, and improved filtration systems to address contaminants like volatile organic compounds (VOCs), allergens, and pathogens. If this equipment continues to evolve and expand into more residential settings, we may see a major boost in IAQ overall. These systems are already helping to reduce indoor pollutants and improve health, and this trend is expected to grow even more as air quality becomes a top priority for homeowners.
