Performance Benefits
Consistent Cold: Eliminates the need for ice; the 1/4 HP chiller effectively maintains target temperatures even in hot climates due to the tub's heavy insulation.
Full-Body Immersion: The reworked interior features a longer and deeper tub with reclined ends for a more natural seated position and better coverage.
Energy Efficiency: Costs less than $1 per day to operate (averaging ~115 kWh per month in high-heat conditions).
Easy Setup: Tool-free assembly with pre-prepped hoses and fittings; ready to run within minutes of filling.
Maintenance and Care
Filter Changes: Depending on usage, filter cartridges should be replaced every 2–4 weeks to prevent clogging and maintain flow.
Water Sanitation: Use Sirona chemicals (oxidizer and sanitizer) weekly to keep water fresh. With proper filtration and sanitation, water can last 3+ months.
Outdoor Care: If kept outdoors, the unit should be shielded from direct rain and snow under a patio or cover. Ensure at least 12” of clearance behind the tub for ventilation.
Freezing Conditions: In sub-freezing weather, keep the pump running and filters fresh to maintain flow. If freezing risk is high, use a chiller bypass hose or move the chiller indoors.
No Ice Rule: Do not add ice to the Modtub. Unfiltered ice can clog the filters and damage the pump and chiller components.
Warranty Information
The Modtub 2.0 includes a 1-Year Standard Warranty. This covers manufacturing defects and component performance. Please note that all sales are final, and damage caused by freezing or improper maintenance is not covered.
