Chris Craft, an HVAC manufacturers rep with Target Sales, talks about the big shift to indoor air quality. Specifically how top HVAC contracting businesses are shifting toward providing IAQ products and services. Chris shares that this shift is driven by customer demand, new technology, and smart business owners.
Customers are becoming more aware of the importance of indoor air quality. As a result, they are increasingly looking for ways to improve the air in their homes and businesses. At the same time, new technology is making it easier for HVAC contractors to offer IAQ products and services.
HVAC contractors can differentiate themselves from their competitors by offering these services and attracting new customers. As a result, the shift to indoor air quality is only going to increase in the coming years.
