The global swimming pool alarms market size was valued at USD 122.9 million in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7% from 2021 to 2028. Increasing awareness towards human safety of underwater and swimming pool premises is expected to promote the market reach over the next few years. Both commercial and residential swimming pools should have these alarms to protect kids and adults from bad incidents such as accidental falls in the swimming pool. These products also detect the changes in the surface wave and subsurface disturbances in the water of the swimming pool. Considering the safety of living things, government authorities have published rules and regulations to set up such alarms.
With increasing health awareness and the benefits of swimming, consumers prefer safety underwater and around the pools. These products are useful for the safety of kids and elderly persons when they are around the swimming pool.
The manufacturers are offering a wide range of alarms for various purposes such as surface wave, subsurface disturbance, wearables, and gate. However, the implantation of government guidelines in countries such as the U.S., Germany, the U.K., and Australia, is expected to increase the installation of swimming pool alarms. For instance, in the U.S., Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) published guidelines for the residential swimming pools which would help avoid submersion incidents in the case of kids. CPSC believes that the safety guidelines recommended will make pools safer, promote pool safety awareness, and save lives. The published safety guidelines for the swimming pools by the government definitely boost the market.
The financial crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the price sensitivity among the commercial and middle-income consumer groups. As a result, the price-conscious buyers have refrained to invest in the swimming pool alarms. This shift in demand is for a short duration resulting in promoting the use of swimming pool alarms post-COVID pandemic. Thus, the market for swimming pool alarms is expected to witness a healthy growth rate in the upcoming years.
The offline channel segment dominated the market for swimming pool alarms and accounted for a revenue share of more than 63.0% in 2020.

The safety wearable segment dominated the market for swimming pool alarms and accounted for the largest revenue share of more than 42.0% in 2020. The segment is expected to witness the fastest CAGR from 2021 to 2028. Availability of Internet of Things (IoT) and connectivity devices have increased the adoption of the safety wearable swimming pool alarms. With safe wearable swimming pool alarms, individuals can be monitored in the swimming pool premises and inside the water. Hence, safety wearables are gaining popularity among buyers as they provide convenient features to consumers.
