Also, our global commercial water heaters market report looks at factors such as increasing demand from the hospitality sector, technological innovations in commercial water heaters, and growing government initiatives promoting the use of energy-efficient heating solutions. However, high installation and maintenance cost, increasing market competition, and technical challenges associated with the product may hamper the growth of the commercial water heaters industry over the forecast period.

Global Commercial Water Heaters Market: Overview

Increasing demand from the hospitality sector

The energy savings from water heaters in commercial spaces are higher than residential buildings because they are installed in many bathrooms as well as the frequency of hot water use is also high. As the frequency of use is high in establishments such as hospitals, hotels, and airports, every watt of energy saved while heating water gets multiplied. So, high energy savings, coupled with increasing investments in new hotels, are key driving factors for the adoption of water heaters in the hospitality sector. This demand from the hospitality sector will lead to the expansion of the global commercial water heaters market at a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period.

Increasing demand for hybrid water heaters

Water heaters mainly use solar, propane, oil, and electricity as an energy source for heating water. However, hybrid water heaters also called as heat pump water heaters, make use of surrounding hot air, and transfer the heat to an enclosed water tank. Hybrid water heaters can overcome the drawbacks of conventional gas and solar water heaters as they use limited energy to heat water. Such features make hybrid water heaters more energy-efficient than standalone solar or gas water heaters. This development is expected to have a positive impact on the overall market growth.
