Written by Brett Linton
March heating and cooling equipment shipments jumped 33.1% over February, now at 2.24 million units, according to recent data from the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI).
This is the third highest level in SMU’s history, just behind the June 2020 high of 2.28 million units and the June 2018 high of 2.27 million units. March levels are up 15.6% from one year prior, and this is the 10th consecutive month that shipments have increased on a year-over-year basis.
