Hydronic Pumps Market Revenue Share, By Speed, (2024)

Based on speed, the constant speed pumps segment accounted for over 64.14% share of the hydronic pumps market in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% through 2034.
 

  • The constant speed pumps sector is extensively utilized in systems that need a constant and predictable flow. These fixed speed pumps are specially built to work at a set speed. Their application is common in residential and some smaller commercial heating and cooling systems. These pumps are vastly efficient in situations where a constant rate of fluid is best.
     
  • In addition, the increasing rate of unreliability of the cooling and heating equipment in smaller commercial and residential buildings is sustaining constant speed pumps. Constant speed pumps also don't offer the operational efficiency that is common with variable speed pumps. However, for continuous operational consistency with minor flow changes, they are ideal. While the market shifts, these products will remain highly prominent due to their simple designs and low costs.
     

Based on End-use, the industrial segment held around 50.4% share of the hydronic pumps market in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% up to 2034.
 

  • The industrial sector is one of the major markets because it uses machinery for industrial, material handling, and power generation processes. These pumps take an important place at operations with high requirements to pressure, accuracy, and wear resistance in processes of metal working, casting, and assembly. These pumps enable Industries to automate their processes, improve productivity, and reduce system failure rates. With advancement in industrial automation and technology, hydraulic pumps are being incorporated into more sophisticated and efficient systems.
     
  • Additional thrust is given to energy efficient hydraulic system innovations due to growth in renewable energy and increased emphasis on sustainable manufacturing. There is essentially no industrial application, which does not depend on reconnaissance activities.  For example, in September 2019, Little Giant introduced VCMA-20 ULS HVAC condensate pump, which features innovations in design and functionality. This advanced HVAC condensate pump has a safety switch included in it to ensure the safety of the pump in case of any failure.
