The FreshWater IQ System is a smart water care monitor exclusively for Hot Springs hot tubs. It works with the FreshWater Salt System and uses a patented sensor to continuously monitor water chemistry all on its own. The result? Continuously clean, fresh, and natural-feeling water with less time and effort required.

Gone are the days of confusing test strips and complex water chemistry routines. Now, thanks to the FreshWater IQ Smart Monitoring System, your hot tub can tell you exactly what it needs and when. 

How Does the FreshWater IQ System Work?

The FreshWater IQ System works by combining the power of the FreshWater® Salt System and the Smart Monitoring System:

The FreshWater Salt System converts salt into a more natural chlorine to keep hot tub water clean, clear, and sanitized with fewer chemicals.

The Smart Monitoring System automatically tests your hot tub water every hour and provides clear instructions for adjustments to maintain perfect water chemistry.

While the FreshWater® Salt System converts salt into a more natural chlorine, the Smart Monitoring System self-tests the water every hour to ensure your chlorine, pH, and salt levels are right where they should be.  

The Smart Monitoring System then displays the test results in real-time on your hot tub control panel. If the water chemistry needs any adjustments, the IQ System will provide step-by-step instructions for you to follow. Once your water conditions are optimal, the notification will automatically go away on its own.  

This innovative system takes the guesswork out of hot tub care, allowing you to enjoy the cleanest possible water with minimal time and effort.

The Freshwater IQ System is compatible with the 2024 Highlife® Hot Tub Collection and 2024 Limelight® Hot Tub Collection. The self-monitoring kit seamlessly integrates into the existing Salt System, and test results and maintenance notifications are displayed on the spa’s control panel.
