2025 Trends: Insider Predictions from deckpro's Operations Team
At deckpro, we’ve spent over a decade servicing, repairing, and installing all types of building services pumps. This experience has given us insights into the challenges and opportunities shaping our industry. Drawing on their expertise, our operations team has identified five key trends that are set to influence the pump industry not just in 2025 but well into the next five years.
These predictions come directly from the experts within our business—professionals who work with these systems day in and day out—offering original perspectives that scratch more than just the surface.
Trend #1: Smart Predictive Technologies: The Future of Pump Maintenance
The industry is witnessing a significant shift toward predictive maintenance technologies. Account Manager Joseph Harvey predicts:
"We will see the emergence of technologies that alert us to pump issues and detect wear and tear within systems. There's certainly demand for systems that monitor and report on patterns in terms of pump vibration and temperatures, so that facilities teams get early warning prior to a pump failure."
Trend #2: The Return-to-Office Wave: Rising Demands on Building Infrastructure
The shift back to office-based work is placing unprecedented demands on building services infrastructure. Sales Manager Simon Stockford observes:
"As the UK, and London in particular, continues to see a notable shift back toward office-based work, I anticipate a corresponding rise in demand for robust water and heating pump solutions. The sudden increase in building occupancy will place additional strain on existing, often aging pump infrastructure, driving property owners and facilities managers to seek out higher levels of technical support and advisory services."
Sales Administrator Piero concurs that this year we will see an increase in clients taking up maintenance contracts with us as a result of the trend towards more proactive maintenance strategies.
Trend #3: Climate Resilience: Pumps in a Changing Environment
As the environment continues to shift, the building services industry faces increasing pressure from extreme weather events that will put significant strain on pump systems. In this changing landscape, reactive repair work could become more common, as systems face unexpected stress, while preventative maintenance emerges as a vital strategy to ensure resilience against these challenges.
Operations Manager Joe Smith says: "With winters getting colder, summers getting warmer, and floods becoming more frequent across the country, I predict that pumps and their role in business will be brought into the spotlight."
Trend#4: Digital Transformation in Manufacturing
Manufacturers are increasingly investing in digital interfaces to enhance user experience. Dean Fowell observes: "I have noticed of late is a few of the different pump manufacturers are upping their online present with new interactive websites." This digital evolution is making technical information and support more accessible than ever before.
The drive for energy efficiency remains a top priority for many clients, particularly those working in sectors with high energy consumption. Operations Manager Joe Smith highlights: "Many customers are looking to improve energy savings by updating equipment, as well as running equipment more efficiently. I see this as not only a trend for this year but for the foreseeable future."
Account Manager Dean Fowell adds: "A lot of my clients are really interested in being energy efficient, especially the leisure centres are looking how they can be more energy efficient."
