Setting Up Your X2 ChillerUpdated a day ago
The most popular chiller in the range. The X2 Pro features WiFi app control and a top-mounted three-stage filtration system, keeping water cleaner for longer with less hands-on maintenance between changes. If you have an Original model, the setup process is identical, the only difference is the Pro's additional filter cup, which is covered in the steps below.
Before you start
- Place on a flat, stable surface with at least 30 cm clearance on all sides for airflow
- Confirm your power supply matches the chiller's voltage requirements (AU/NZ: 240V | US: 120V)
- Download the TUYA Smart app before setup if you want WiFi control. See Connect Your Chiller to WiFi for pairing instructions.
- X2 Pro only: confirm the top filter cup is installed correctly before connecting hoses. Do not run the Pro without the filter cup in place.
Connecting to your tub
- Attach the inlet hose to the inlet fitting on your tub
- Attach the outlet hose to the outlet fitting on your tub
- Confirm connections are firm and hoses run without kinking
Filling your tub
Fill your tub fully before switching the chiller on. The water level must cover the inlet fitting. Running the pump without sufficient water will cause damage.
Powering on
- Switch on at the wall
- Set your target temperature on the control panel or via the TUYA app
- Allow 8–12 hours for the water to reach your target temperature
Filter maintenance
- Internal mesh filter: remove and rinse weekly. No replacement needed.
- 20-micron cartridge filter: replace every 5–7 weeks
- X2 Pro: check and clean the top filter cup regularly. A blocked filter cup is the most common cause of E2 errors on the Pro model.
