Based on application, the industry can be broadly trifurcated into residential, commercial, and industrial segments. Residential sector is projected to surpass USD 18 billion by 2032 owing to the increasing demand for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly water heating solutions. Advent of new technological innovations with manufacturers developing advanced water heaters offering improved efficiency, faster heating times, and greater reliability will further sway the industry size. For instance, in May 2024, Germany based ait-group introduced a new range of air to water heat pump called Hybrox with propane refrigerant primarily designed for large homes and multi-family buildings. Additionally, the lineup is available in 11 & 16 kW to serve heating, cooling and domestic hot water (DHW) requirements across new & renovated buildings.
The Asia Pacific variable speed heat pump water heater is anticipated to cross USD 14 billion through 2032. The industry is witnessing significant growth propelled by a combination of rapid urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and expanding residential construction. Moreover, continuous R&D initiatives to boost technological advancements along with increasing consumer awareness favoring advanced systems with enhanced energy efficiency will boost the residential heat pump industry size. For instance, in March 2024, Chinese heat pump manufacturer called Guangzhou Sprsun New Energy Technology Development Co., Ltd. unveiled R290 DC inverter air source heat pump unit designed for cooling, heating, and DHW operations. Additionally, the product has a peak heating capacity of 9.1 kW with low noise operation to deliver a coefficient of performance (COP) rating of 4.2 at 7 °C.
