Reflections from the world’s largest HVAC exhibition – ISH Frankfurt
The quest for energy savings has had a big impact on the industry. Compared to the last exhibition, when gas boilers were still in high demand, the focus within the heating sector has now shifted dramatically to heat pumps – which are omnipresent and in high demand with the visitors. There is also a lot of focus on the HVAC controls on a system level, once again with crowds at the exhibition trying to take in all the latest technological advances. It is increasingly clear that there are huge savings to be made by making all parts of the system work in a harmonised and seamless way, eliminating waste, but the question is how to do it.
