Contractors' confidence in economy growing, survey says

March 8, 2014

ACCA members ended February feeling pretty good about the HVAC sales economy.

For the month, the Air Conditioning Contractors of America’s Contractor Comfort Index was 72 on a 100-point scale. That’s three points higher than it was a month ago.

The figures are based on a survey of members about their near-term feelings toward the HVAC market economy. A number over 50 represents positive sentiments.

ACCA members are feeling substantially more confident than they were a year ago, when the index was 58.

The next survey will be released at the end of this month.
