The Global Residential Water Softening Systems Market is Projected to Register a CAGR of 5.04% and Reach a Value of USD 5,505.4 Million By 2027.
Water softening systems are filtration systems that remove high concentrations of calcium carbonate, magnesium, and certain ions in hard water that cause water flow blockage in hot and cold-water pipes, water heaters, boiler tubes, cooling towers, and any other surfaces it comes in contact with. A water softening system filters out hard water minerals and softened water. This soft water is more compatible with soap and extends the lifetime of plumbing and other appliances.
With the spread of COVID-19 around the globe, residential water softening systems manufacturers are taking preventive measures in the form of plant closures to curb the spread of COVID-19. However, the situation remains uncertain as an increasing number of European companies have suspended work, and manufacturers in the US and APAC regions have extended the shutdown periods. Declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO), COVID-19 has compelled the governments of several countries to impose lockdowns in an effort to reduce its spread.
The global residential water softening systems market is driven by factors such as rising health concerns and awareness about water-borne diseases and ongoing smart city projects in developing countries. However, the high lack of awareness is expected to restrain the market growth. Nevertheless, the increasing technological advancement in water softening systems is expected to create growth opportunities for the market players.
In recent years, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) has been increasingly organizing many campaigns to raise awareness regarding health and safety among individuals. Such campaigns are often aimed at educating individuals regarding the causes of illness due to water-borne diseases. As per the WHO, unsafe drinking water, sanitation, and hand hygiene lead to approximately 4 billion cases of diarrhea annually across the globe. Furthermore, the consumption of impure water or contaminated water is directly linked to the occurrence of several diseases, including cholera, diarrhea, dysentery, and typhoid. The rising cases of cholera and other serious illnesses such as guinea worm disease, typhoid, and dysentery are increasingly prompting individuals to drink pure water.
The lack of awareness in rural areas in developing countries such as India and China is expected to restrain the growth of water softening systems. Most of the people living in these areas are less aware of the effects of hard water on electrical appliances. Therefore, the advantages of water softening systems are expected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Moreover, people still use old conventional methods such as chlorination, ceramic filtration, cloth straining, and slow sand filtering to overcome these methods; as a result, the growth of the demand for residential water softening systems is expected to be restrained.
The global residential water softening systems market is very competitive, mainly due to the presence of several players. These players focus on research &development for providing technologically advanced residential water softening systems to customers. Furthermore, the integration of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) in residential water softening systems is expected to boost the adoption of smart water softening systems, especially in residences.
