Boilers are categorized based on product, capacities, and technologies. In product segment, steam boilers occupied the maximum market share in 2015, owing to its wide application in the industrial, commercial, and residential sector. Steam boilers operate at a higher temperature than hot water boilers.

Boilers are used for various heating applications such as water heating, power generation, cooking, central heating, and sanitation. Boilers in the range of <10 MMBtu/hr are used in the residential and commercial segment, although it does find limited usability in food and beverage processing industry. Permits are not required for installation direct heating systems used for comfort purposes and indirect heating systems with heat input capacity of less than 10 MMBtu/hr.

The 10-50 MMBtu/hr boiler segment is anticipated to record the fastest growth rate over the forecast period. Low oil and gas prices in past two years have further facilitated the boiler demand in the residential and industrial segment. The boom in shale gas resources in the U.S. is expected to drive the market demand for gas-fired furnaces and boiler over the coming years.
