Gas fired boilers are heating systems that use natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as fuel to generate steam or hot water for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. These boilers are preferred for their higher efficiency, lower emissions, and operational cost-effectiveness compared to coal or oil-fired boilers.

The market growth is driven by the increasing demand for efficient heating systems in power generation, manufacturing, oil & gas, and building heating sectors worldwide. Stringent environmental regulations promoting cleaner energy solutions further support the adoption of gas fired boilers.

The global gas fired boiler market was valued at USD 49.53 Billion in 2022, which is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 9.37% from 2023 to 2032. The corporate environment will be further improved by the widespread implementation of energy-efficient space and water heating systems in addition to the replacement of traditional heating units.
