Remove solar panels from salination plant if you are going to use external heat source. You may have one or the other, but not both. This is a common error...

From your screenshot, your pump may not be pumping fast enough. Upgrades!

After using heat pipes, I find they are really only good for 6-8 blocks before they become pointless. You are better off putting your resistive heater right next to the valve. Resistive heaters MUST be powered to the green square sides. The green square side does not output heat!

Fuelwood heaters must be placed directly on valve. Orientation is of no importance.

Fuelwood heaters must be placed directly on valve

I am 99% sure that is not true.

@Moebius777 if you want help with the heat situation you need to show the heat connections as screenshots. Pump is likely not enough power / not enough upgrades.
