Manual  

 
Noise is to be anticipated from a pump with moving parts. Pump will operate during 
daylight hours. Homeowner must be aware of anticipated noise and be involved in 
determining best location for Appliance. Noise is not a manufacturing defect and 
does not affect operation of Solar Water Heating Appliance. 
 
Installation of EnerWorks Energy Station requires plumbing to domestic potable 
water distribution network. A plumbing permit may be necessary. An anti-scald 
valve may be necessary and is highly recommended. It is the responsibility of the 
homeowner and of   the installer to obtain any necessary permits and to follow all 
applicable codes and regulations. 

 
 

Connections to domestic potable water distribution network may have to be 
performed by a licensed plumber. It is the responsibility of the homeowner and of 
the installer to follow all applicable codes and regulations. 

 

 
Electrical connections to Energy Station and to solar storage tank may have to be 
done by a licensed electrician. Do not attempt unless fully qualified.  

 

 
This installation may have to be inspected. Follow all codes and regulations. 
 

 

EnerWorks assumes no liability for any damage to property or injury or death 
resulting from improper installation or from modification of the EnerWorks Solar 
Water Heating Appliance. 

 
 

EnerWorks Appliance includes supplies and fittings specific to Energy Station 
connections. Additional materials (copper or PEX and fittings) are required to 
connect water mains to appliance and to connect appliance to hot-water 
distribution network. 

 

MNPT (Male National Pipe Thread), and FIP (Female Iron Pipe) connections all 
require thread sealant or Teflon tape. Do not apply sealant or tape to the first 
thread as it may contaminate water and clog taps and appliances. Do not apply 
thread sealant or Teflon tape to Energy Station flare connections as it may 
contaminate and damage the heat transfer fluid. Degradation of fluid and/or 
damage to appliance due to contamination of fluid is not covered by warranty. 

 
 

A back flow prevention device may need to be installed on water supply to home 
and/or upstream of solar storage tank. Follow all codes and regulations. 

 

 
Before installing the EnerWorks Energy Station, shut down power or gas to 
existing hot-water heater and drain tank.
