Recent Developments in the Global Water Heater Market

Published: Oct 2024

Global water heater market is projected to have a CAGR of around 5.7% during the forecast period (2024-2031). The market growth is driven by the increasing disposable income, improving the standard of living especially in emerging economies. Additionally, the increasing government support in the form of subsidies for the development of energy-efficient water heaters for domestic and industrial purposes is also propelling the market. Furthermore, the growing application of water heaters in commercial sectors such as hotels, hospitals, and spas is bolstering the market growth.  The rising adoption of solar water heaters is creating ample opportunity for the market. However, the solar water heater has a comparatively high installation cost and requires more space for installing solar panels, which is hindering the adoption of solar water heaters. Additionally, the lower penetration of water heaters in developing and under-developed economies is anticipated to present a considerable challenge to the market growth, during the forecast period. 

The global water heater market is segmented by energy source (gas, electricity, hybrid, and solar), by mode of water supply (on-demand or tank-less, and storage or tank water heater), by end-user (residential, commercial, and industrial), and by geographies (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World).

The major players in the global tube packaging market include A.O. Smith Corp., Ariston Thermo S.P.A., Bradford White Corp., General Electric Co., Bajaj Electricals Ltd., Noritz Corp., Haier Group, Havells India Ltd, Rheem Manufacturing Co., Vaillant Group, and Whirlpool Corp., Venus Home Appliances (P) Ltd. among others. The market players are contributing significantly to the market growth, by the adoption of various business strategies, such as collaborations, mergers and acquisitions, product portfolio diversification, and more.
