As we start enjoying summertime, our A/C units work harder than ever to keep us comfy. Unfortunately, the more HVAC systems cool, the sooner they’ll require repair or replacement as machinery gets worn out from routine use. And just as the demand for repairs is set to be at its highest around mid-summer, thousands of homeowners are going to receive an unwelcomed surprise. A global raw materials shortage is causing problems for the HVAC industry, and that means extended wait times for thousands across North America. If you’re needing to repair your air conditioning system, we recommend doing this soon. Here’s why.
We all know how hard the past year has been, and it’s impacted the supply chain. Several compounding factors plus COVID-19 have led to an international raw materials shortage for numerous industries, which involves HVAC manufacturers. These crucial material shortages will impact the accessibility of lots of household appliances like washing machines, refrigerators and A/C units. Production has stalled for lots of HVAC manufacturers and stock is beginning to become depleted.
With less equipment in supply than previously, more than 125,000 HVAC companies will be impacted. Smaller scale contractors without access to big supply networks may have unavoidable problems getting needed parts for repairs. You may be without A/C for weeks while you are waiting for parts to come.
That’s why we strongly suggest any homeowner who is thinking about getting a new HVAC unit to do it quickly to access the choice selection and price.
