AMA Research are pleased to announce the publication of
the tenth edition of the report, “Domestic Central Heating Market –
UK 2011-2015”. The report represents an informed and up-to-date and
detailed review of the market and offers excellent value for money.
Key issues covered in the
report:
-
Boilers –
Combination, Traditional, System etc.
-
Radiators –
Standard Panel, Decorative, Towel Warmers etc.
-
Circulator Pumps
–
Stand-alone, Boiler-integrated.
-
Heating Controls – Programmable Thermostats, Wireless, TRVs,
Compensators etc.
The total market for domestic central heating products
is substantial, valued at around £1.06 billion at manufacturers’ prices
in 2011. Many sectors of the market are demonstrating product
innovation, reflecting the increasing impact of energy efficiency
legislation and new development opportunities arising from integrated
solar thermal heating solutions and other renewables. Although
thecurrent economic situation is constraining the market - particularly
in new build - the Boiler Scrappage Scheme in 2010 has lifted demand in
the refurbishment sector. |
Areas of particular interest
include:-
-
Impact of
increasing legislation regarding the efficiency and
environmental impact of domestic heating systems – EuP, Part L, Code
for Sustainable Homes.
-
Considerable
market opportunities
in the replacement sector – there is still around 12 million
non-condensing boilers in UK homes, with 3 million ‘G’ rated.
-
Impact of new
build trends on the domestic central heating market – shift
towards flats, increasing use of electricity as a source of fuel.
-
Roll out of smart
metering and the increased consumer focus on energy efficient
central heating products.
-
Impact of
renewable technologies on domestic central heating systems.
-
Emergence of
pre-plumbed heating ‘packages’ for easier installation.
