Filtration

Original includes an integrated sediment filter and an external 20-micron filter. The Pro upgrades to a fully integrated three-stage system: sediment filter, integrated 20-micron filter, and an ozone sanitisation system. Ozone runs intermittently and is configurable via the panel or app. Replace the 20-micron paper filter every 4–6 weeks. Clean the built-in filter mesh monthly and the dust net every 3 months. Always switch off the RCD before replacing the paper filter element.

App & Connectivity

The Ultra Max connects via the Tuya Smart app (iOS and Android). WiFi requires a 2.4 GHz network. From the app, you can set temperature targets, configure cooling schedules, adjust ozone settings, and monitor the unit in real time. The LCD panel shows current water temperature, water flow rate, WiFi status, ozone, defrost cycle, and any active fault codes.

Heating Mode

With a water temperature range up to 113˚F (45°C), the Ultra Max can also function as a warm water heater useful for contrast therapy protocols or transitioning between cold and heat within the same session.

*Cooling times are estimates based on the optimal volume and ambient conditions of ~77˚F (~25˚C). Actual times will vary depending on the tub size, starting water temperature, and environment.
