The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing awareness of energy conservation, increasing adoption of smart pool technologies, rising focus on pool hygiene and water quality, increasing demand for energy-efficient solutions, and the growing trend of home improvement. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in pump designs, improvements in heater design and materials, integration of smart technology in valves, innovations in wireless systems, and development of smart pumps.

The growing tourism industry is expected to propel the growth of the swimming pool circulation systems market going forward. The tourism industry includes all activities and services related to the movement of people traveling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for leisure, business, or other purposes. The rise in tourism is largely driven by post-pandemic recovery, as strengthened consumer confidence and pent-up travel demand continue to accelerate international and domestic travel across major economies. Hotels, resorts, and recreational facilities expand their pool infrastructure to accommodate growing visitor numbers, creating consistent demand for advanced circulation systems that maintain water quality and safety standards. For instance, in May 2025, according to UN Tourism, a Spain-based agency promoting responsible and sustainable tourism, over 300 million tourists traveled internationally in the first three months of 2025, about 14 million more than during the same period in 2024, marking a 5% year-on-year increase. Therefore, the growing tourism industry is driving the growth of the swimming pool circulation systems market.

Key companies operating in the swimming pool circulation systems market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as swimming pool cleaning pumps, to enhance water quality and reduce maintenance requirements. Swimming pool cleaning pumps circulate and filter water to eliminate debris and impurities, maintaining pool cleanliness and hygiene while ensuring steady water flow, improving filtration efficiency, and enhancing overall pool system performance. For instance, in December 2024, AQUASTRONG, a Hong Kong-based water pump provider, launched a permanent magnet variable-speed pool pump, an upgraded pool circulation system line that reduces power consumption by up to 80% and supports 0.5 to 3 horsepower for various pool types. The line also includes timed, dual-speed, and standard models; an efficient sand filter system sized from 12 to 26 inches for superior cleaning; and a heat pump to maintain stable pool temperatures year-round.

In September 2023, Waterco Limited, an Australia-based provider of water treatment and pool equipment solutions, acquired Davey Water Products for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, Waterco aimed to strengthen its market position in the global water solutions industry by expanding its product portfolio and enhancing its manufacturing and distribution capabilities. Davey Water Products is an Australia-based provider of water pumps, filtration systems, and swimming pool circulation equipment.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The sudden escalation of U.S. tariffs and the consequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are severely impacting the recreation sector, particularly in the supply of imported sports equipment, outdoor gear, and leisure products. Manufacturers and retailers are facing higher costs for items such as bicycles, camping gear, fitness machines, and gaming consoles, much of which are sourced from overseas with limited domestic alternatives. Small businesses operating in the recreational retail space are especially affected, with some reducing inventory or increasing prices to offset margin pressure. Event organizers and recreational facilities are also facing cost hikes for imported equipment and infrastructure materials. In response, the industry is exploring alternative sourcing from tariff-free regions, increasing reliance on local suppliers, and urging policymakers to consider exemptions for non-essential but widely used recreational products.
