Global Swimming Pool Water Monitoring Devices Market Research Report: Forecast (2021-2026)

Water monitoring devices for swimming pools enable easy & hassle-free maintenance of pool water. They involve effective strategies to monitor pool water quality across various parameters, such as pH & temperature levels, salinity, conductivity, etc. They further help take protective steps for multiple risk factors that may severely impact the pool water & human life.

Lack of sanitary control of swimming pool water is the most common cause of eye, ear, nose, throat, & skin infections, coupled with respiratory issues. Swimming pool water conditions directly depend on how well its pH, temperature, and salinity get monitored. Hence, to identify defects correctly and more precisely, swimming pool water monitoring devices are required.

Recently, the leading market companies are focusing on developing smart devices that can use the full potential of advanced technologies, including IoT (Internet of Things), for connected pools to provide customers with greater comfort, safety, & savings.

Moreover, various mergers & acquisitions of companies are also driving the market. For instance, in September 2021, Fluidra S.A., the Spanish-listed global leader in pool & wellness equipment and connected solutions, acquired S.R. Smith, a US-based manufacturer of commercial & residential pool deck equipment & accessories. With this acquisition, Fluidra S.A expects its sales to increase from 35-40% to 37-42% by the end of the fiscal year.

Moreover, the anticipated demand for water monitoring devices for the existing operational pools and the rapidly increasing new constructions of swimming pools are other crucial factors likely to boost the market through 2026, further states the research report, “Global Swimming Pool Water Monitoring Devices Market Analysis, 2021.”

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Swimming Pool Water Monitoring Devices Market

• Hence, the market shows signs of dramatic expansion in the upcoming years, owing to changing government norms, increasing hygiene practices, and mounting consumer inclination toward residential swimming pools.

Market Segmentation

By End-User:

Residential Sector Dominated the Global Swimming Pool Water Monitoring Devices Market with the Largest Share

Based on the End-Users, the market bifurcates into:

• Residential
• Commercial

Of both, the Residential sector accounted for the largest share of the Global Swimming Pool Water Monitoring Devices Market in the previous few years and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period.

The shift in consumers' preferences from public pools toward private ones due to mounting hygiene issues & closure of public places entwined with surging income levels and high budgets for purchasing homes has significantly surged the demand for swimming pools across the residential sector. Due to this, the need for swimming pool water monitoring devices has also propelled substantially.

Considering the current pandemic situation & its course over the years, changing consumer lifestyles and the rising trend of owning swimming pools in apartments or within the society are the prime aspects that would augment the demand for these devices across the residential sector and fuel the overall market growth during 2021-26.

Regional Landscape:

North America Attained the Largest Market Share and Witnessed Highest Sales

The extensive base of installed swimming pools and the rapidly building new ones are the prime factors behind the largest market share of North America. Additionally, a surge in disposable income and burgeoning demand for swimming pool water monitoring devices across luxury hotels, schools, and amusement parks also contributed to the largest market share of the region.

The US dominates the regional market. Swimming, being one of the most widely accepted sports in the US, is the principal reason that leads to the significant demand for swimming pool water monitoring devices in the country. In 2020, 2912 commercial swimming pools were constructed in the United States, which showed a decline of around 10% from 2019. Further, the total installed residential swimming pools in the US exceeded 5 million in 2020.

Market Dynamics:
