Concern for the environment and the need to reduce overall energy consumption has prompted the development of new energy-saving heating and air conditioning systems. This emphasis on better energy management is expected to lead to the replacement of older HVAC/R systems and the installation of newer, more efficient models in existing homes and buildings. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration mechanics and installers is projected to increase 28 percent during the next decade.
