Why Choose
Earthworker Energy
Australian-made hot water products from Morwell
Earthworker Energy manufactures premium stainless steel hot water tanks in Morwell, in Victoria’s Latrobe Valley.
Our tanks are made for long service life, reliable performance and everyday use in Australian homes. They can be supplied as standalone electric storage tanks, paired with compatible heat pump or solar hot water technology, or included as part of a complete Earthworker heat pump hot water system.
Whatever the configuration, the tank at the centre of the system is made here in Australia.
Quality Starts with the Tank
The storage tank is one of the most important parts of any hot water system. It holds heated water every day, year after year, so its materials, construction and insulation all matter.
Earthworker tanks are made from corrosion-resistant marine-grade stainless steel and backed by a 15-year warranty.
Each tank is finished with Earthworker’s distinctive recycled polymer outer casing. This provides an additional layer of insulation, improves durability and helps reduce plastic waste.
The result is a strong, extra well-insulated Australian-made tank designed to provide reliable service over the long term.
Hot Water Products for Different Applications
Earthworker tanks can be supplied in several configurations to suit different projects, budgets and household needs.
Complete heat pump hot water systems: an Earthworker stainless steel tank supplied with selected heat pump technology, controls and product support.
Standalone electric storage tanks: a straightforward hot water option built around an Australian-made stainless steel tank. These can also be supplied with additional inlet/outlet ports for solar hot water or other applications.
This flexibility allows householders, installers, builders and project partners to select the right arrangement for the property and its hot water requirements.
