AHR Expo 2026 wrapped up successfully in Las Vegas after three days of professional exchange and product display from February 2–4, 2026 (U.S. local time). As one of North America’s most influential HVACR events, the show brought together manufacturers, contractors, system integrators, utilities, and technology providers to explore what’s next in heating, cooling, building automation, and energy efficiency.
Key Themes from the Show Floor
This year’s exhibition made one message clear: the HVAC market is moving rapidly toward connected, data-driven, and energy-efficient systems. Across multiple halls, exhibitors and attendees focused on:
-
Smart HVAC controls that improve comfort while reducing operating costs
-
Energy visibility and metering for residential, commercial, and multi-site portfolios
-
Wireless field devices that simplify retrofit deployments
-
Interoperability and open integration for platforms, gateways, and building systems
For many North American B2B visitors, “easy to deploy + easy to integrate” emerged as a major decision factor—especially for light commercial buildings and hospitality projects.
OWON’s Participation: Devices and Solutions for Energy + HVAC IoT
Among the companies showcasing integrated hardware and solutions, OWON Technology drew consistent interest with a portfolio spanning smart energy management, HVAC control, wireless building systems, and smart hotel applications.
At Booth C8344, OWON presented multiple product categories designed for practical deployment and integration needs:
-
Smart energy meters (single-phase, split-phase, and three-phase options) for real-time monitoring and energy management
-
Smart thermostats designed for North American 24VAC HVAC systems, supporting common residential and light commercial scenarios
-
Smart hotel solutions that connect comfort control, occupancy sensing, and energy management into a unified room management approach
-
Integration-ready components and APIs aimed at system integrators and equipment manufacturers seeking scalable deployment
Strong On-Site Engagement and Collaboration Discussions
Throughout the exhibition, OWON’s team held productive conversations with visitors from system integration firms, property management groups, and solution providers. Discussions focused on how smart energy metering and HVAC controls can be combined to improve operational visibility, reduce energy waste, and support scalable deployments across multiple buildings.
A repeated theme during these interactions was the need for flexible integration options—from device-level connectivity to gateway and platform-level cooperation—so partners can align solutions with their own ecosystems and project requirements.
Looking Ahead to AHR 2027
With AHR Expo 2026 now concluded, the market’s momentum toward smart HVAC and energy IoT is only accelerating. For suppliers and integrators alike, the next stage will be about turning connected devices into measurable outcomes: reduced operating costs, improved occupant comfort, and faster deployments.
OWON expressed appreciation to all visitors who stopped by for discussions at the booth and looks forward to reconnecting at AHR Expo 2027, while continuing to explore cooperation opportunities with partners in North America.
