Introduction
The Apricity Ara is a utility-connected LTE communication and switch device for energy
management of residential hot water heaters.
This manual describes the physical installation of the Ara. Installation is straightforward
and can be completed by a qualified homeowner but is typically completed by an agent
of the electrical utility. The installer should always consult state and local codes to
ensure a compliant installation.
Once the unit is installed and powered on, it will automatically connect over cellular
networks and be available for grid power management. Units are pre-configured by
Apricity on a client-by-client basis.
