HVAC distribution residential equipment average selling price growth measures the year-over-year change in average selling price for residential HVAC equipment.

Watsco reported a 2% increase in average selling prices for domestic residential HVAC equipment in the second quarter of 2026.

Selling price can move independently of unit demand

Product mix, efficiency levels, refrigerant technology, manufacturer pricing, tariffs, and inflation can all change average selling price.

That is why ASP should be separated from residential equipment unit volume growth.

Regulatory transitions can shift mix

The transition to A2L refrigerant systems raised average selling prices sharply in parts of 2025 as new products entered the mix.

Read ASP growth with equipment sales mix before treating it as pure pricing power.
