How an HVAC Parts and Equipment Shortage Could Affect You Parts and Equipment

As we start enjoying the summer, our A/C units work harder than ever to keep us comfortable. Unfortunately, the more HVAC systems cool, the sooner they’ll need repair or replacement as parts get worn out from routine use. And just as the need for repairs is set to be at its highest around mid-summer, thousands of homeowners are going to receive an unwanted surprise. A global raw materials shortage is causing issues 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 suggest doing this soon. Here’s why. 

What’s Causing the Shortage? 

We all know how challenging the past year has been, and it’s taken a toll on the supply chain. Multiple compounding factors on top of COVID-19 have created an international raw materials shortage for numerous sectors, which involves HVAC manufacturers. These essential material shortages will impact the availability of a lot of household appliances such as washing machines, refrigerators and A/C units. Production has ceased for lots of HVAC manufacturers and inventories are beginning to dwindle. 

Why the Shortage Could Impact You 

With less equipment available than previously, more than 125,000 HVAC contractors will be impacted. Smaller scale contractors who don’t have access to major supply networks may run into inevitable problems getting necessary parts for repairs. You might be without A/C for weeks while you are waiting for parts to come. 

That’s why we strongly advise any homeowner who is thinking about replacing their HVAC unit to do it quickly to get the top selection and price.
