History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 423720-41 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The history of the Water Heaters (Wholesale) industry dates back to the early 20th century when the first electric water heater was invented in 1889 by Edwin Ruud. The invention of the gas water heater in the 1930s revolutionized the industry, making it more efficient and affordable. In the 1950s, the first tankless water heater was introduced, which further improved the efficiency of water heaters. In recent years, the industry has seen advancements in technology, such as the development of smart water heaters that can be controlled remotely through a smartphone app. In the United States, the industry has seen significant growth in recent years due to the increasing demand for energy-efficient and eco-friendly water heaters. The Energy Policy Act of 1992 mandated that all new water heaters meet certain energy efficiency standards, which led to the development of more efficient water heaters. In 2015, the U.S. Department of Energy issued new energy efficiency standards for water heaters, which further drove the demand for more efficient products. The industry has also seen an increase in demand for tankless water heaters, which are more energy-efficient and take up less space than traditional tank water heaters.
