How Pittsburgh Homeowners Can Beat HVAC Tariffs

Starting May 1, 2025, new tariffs on HVAC equipment and components are set to take effect, leading to price increases across the industry. These tariffs, particularly on steel, aluminum, and imported parts, are expected to raise HVAC equipment prices by 5% to 20%, depending on the product and manufacturer.​

What’s Happening?

The U.S. government has announced tariffs that will impact the cost of raw materials and imported HVAC components. For instance, steel and aluminum tariffs are anticipated to increase the cost of HVAC systems by 15-30%. Additionally, components like compressors and circuit boards, often sourced from countries like China and Mexico, are subject to tariffs ranging from 25% to 34%, further driving up prices.​

How Will This Affect You?

These tariffs mean that both new HVAC installations and repairs will become more expensive. Even if your system doesn’t need immediate replacement, future repairs could cost more due to increased prices of parts and components.​
