Factors like contamination of residential water supply and hardness of water are largely contributing to the growth of the global residential water treatment equipment market. The increasing interest among governments worldwide to decentralize water treatment in order to produce high-quality water for different household applications at the point-of-entry (POE) and point-of-use (POU) of

individual households is aiding the growth of the market. This entails more economic benefit to the government expenditure on water treatment.Compared to POU, POE equipment is still less-preferred by residential consumers, owing to its high cost. However, it is expected that during the forecast period, the POE segment will grow at a higher rate (21.26%) due to deteriorating water quality at the source.The global residential water treatment equipment market is highly fragmented,competitive, and commoditized. This makes the key leading players vulnerable since technologies like activated carbon, filtration, and RO have limitations and do not offer sufficient protection. With little or no technological differentiation, players in the market will lose market share to players who offer more effective treatment products for a wide range of impurities. Thus, it is expected that technological innovation will drive the market during the forecast period.
