この夏は「エアコン工事に注意」 2027年問題、ナフサ不足も

This summer, consumers are being advised to exercise caution regarding air conditioner installations. A potential shortage of skilled technicians, linked to the "2027 problem" where many experienced workers are expected to retire, could lead to difficulties in securing timely installations. Furthermore, a scarcity of naphtha, a key petrochemical feedstock, is impacting the production of materials essential for air conditioning units and their components, potentially exacerbating supply chain issues.

These factors could lead to delays, increased costs, and reduced availability of air conditioning services and units during a period of high demand.
