North American HVAC Circulator Pumps Markets

SUMMARY

The North American heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) circulator pumps market generated revenues of $144.2 million in 2004 and is expected to witness positive growth though the forecast period. The North American HVAC circulator pumps market is highly competitive with very little room to differentiate among competing products. In a mature and price competitive circulator pump market, manufacturers are challenged to improve production methods to minimize manufacturing costs in order to reduce price. As a result of price competition and limited market demand, circulator pump manufacturers are re-evaluating production procedures to become more cost-efficient. To be competitive, circulator pump manufacturers have to reduce overhead and production costs to a minimum in order to offer low prices. Lean manufacturing is revolutionizing the circulator pump industry and manufacturers are seeking competitive advantages by reducing production costs and reflecting it in the price. The manufacturers can succeed in the market by expanding their product offerings to provide different accessories along with the pumps while reducing their overhead costs.

The North American heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) circulator pumps continues to be highly mature, and consists of numerous manufacturers, and has witnessed an increase in competitiveness among the market participants. The market is likely to witness positive growth in revenues through the forecast year periods, motivated by robust building construction activity, which is expected to further increase through the same period. This Frost & Sullivan research examines the North American HVAC circulator pumps markets. The study addresses revenue forecasts for the total North American market, which includes United States and Canada as well provides detailed revenue forecasts by key end-user groups and by key geographic regions in United States and Canada. It also discusses prevailing market challenges, trends, and competitive issues.
