POWERsmart, energy efficient, cutting-edge integrated heat pump interface : there is no doubt our SV series spa controls are the ultimate in controller technology. Every feature on our simple spaside touchpad control systems has been designed to maximise energy savings and deliver the lowest possible daily operating cost for your spa. Feature packed, simple to use and coupled with a host of desirable lifestyle options there is no better choice to power your spa
Energy efficient features such as Dynamic Thermal Tuning and Smart Filtration ensures your spa costs less to run
Programmable power save timers to govern heating and/or filtration to occur during solar generation hours or off-peak tariffs
All SV Series spa controls are ready for immediate connection to either single, two or three phase power supplies
A single button press to activate a 20 minute sanitisation cycle to refresh water quality when exiting the spa
Utilising the latest in smart technology every SV Series spa control features a true variable heater which automatically adjusts it output power level (kW) to utilise any residual power when accessory jet pumps are running. This eliminates the traditional need to loadshed and turn heater off when pumps engage, ensuring maximum heat input whilst spa is in use.
SpaNET is the first spa control manufacturer to offer a dedicated interface for seamless integration of a heat pump to a spa pool. The SV Series interface provides automatic heat pump detection and disabling of electric element and offers plug-n-play direct cable connection with no need for additional power circuits.
SV Series spa controls feature a dynamic thermostat point which adapts and tunes heat cycles to match the thermal properties of your spa. This eliminates unnecessary on/off cycling of the filtration pump and heater which results in significant power savings whilst still maintaining your desired water temperature
Current Limit and Load Limit functions will govern the power the spa consumes to keep within certain limits if the available power at the property the spa is being installed is restricted. The current limit setting governs the capacity of the variable heater, whilst the load limit setting limits the number of loads (jet pumps and blower) that can run at the one time.

'How hard is spa water to keep clean?' is one of the most common questions asked by our customers when they're considering purchasing a spa. For this reason, Sapphire Spas place high importance on providing spas with an easy water maintenance regime. Let us suggest a couple of the best methods for you to maintain crystal clear spa water.
Spa pools, due to their small body of water and hard cover, are much easier to maintain than a swimming pool. They don’t require much chemical and no need to spend hours brushing and vacuuming. Nevertheless, the small body of water, combined with the fact it is kept warm, means making sure the water is adequately treated is very critical. The small volume of water means the contaminates an average person brings into the spa is concentrated. It is therefore essential that every spa be fitted with an effective sanitising system to help ensure any bugs that enter the water are quickly neutralised.
If you have been researching spas, you will probably have come across the term Ozone. Ozone automatic sanitiser systems have been around in spas for almost as long as spas have been around.
Ozone is an oxidiser; it makes various contaminants in your spa’s water ‘inert’ so that they can be removed by the filter system. In doing so, they make the water not only cleaner, but also safer as they kill nasty bugs.
There are two technologies that are used to generate (O3). UV (not to be confused with UV sterilizers, which simulates the effects of sunshine), and Corona Discharge, which simulates the effects of lightning!
The Corona Discharge system is thought to be the best and most spa manufacturers now use this technology.
An ozone system helps to keep your water clean and clear without the need for so many chemicals.
Take the time to read our related blog topic 'What is ozone for spa pools?'
An ozone generator converts Oxygen (O2) from the atmosphere, into Ozone (O3) in your spa. (O3) means that there are now 3 Oxygen molecules. Oxygen is an Oxidiser and when (O3) comes into contact with microscopic particles in the spa water, it dissolves those particles
It is essential that the ozone system has adequate output and is set up to thoroughly mix and dissolve the ozone into the water. The secret is to ensure there is enough ozone being produced, and then maximise its contact time with the water as much as possible before it reverts to plain old oxygen
It is also equally important to ensure the ozone has predominantly reverted to oxygen by the time it escapes to the surface of the spa water. A high-performance Corona Discharge Ozone Unit, combined with an efficient Venturi Injector, are keys to this process
Beware of cheap, low grade ozone generators with poor injection systems. They may cost less but may have little impact on helping keep the spa water fresh, clean and healthy.
Clearzone uses ozone in combination with germicidal UV-C light. The combination of these two technologies creates an oxidising agent many, many times more powerful than ozone on its own. This results in much more effective destruction of nasties in the water. It also greatly reduces the chlorine by-products that cause skin, eye and respiratory irritation.

This results in much more effective destruction of nasties in the water. It also greatly reduces the chlorine by-products that cause skin, eye and respiratory irritation. It makes the water smell fresh. Very little, if any, chemical smell. The other benefit of clearzone is that this process also polishes the water to crystal clear clarity, providing the filter is kept clean and general water balance is maintained.
CLEARZONE IS THE ULTIMATE IN SPA SANITISATION AND DEFINITELY THE WAY TO GO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR GREAT WATER QUALITY TO ENJOY WITH AND LOOK AFTER YOUR FAMILY!
Clearzone features AOP (Advance Oxidation Process) technology to help deliver incredibly crystal clear spa water with minimal chemical odours or associated eye, skin and respiratory irritation.
Clearzone helps clarify your spa water by generating a powerful oxidiser that burns up dissolved solids in the water so the filter can catch them, it then quickly converts back to oxygen leaving no chemical residual or off gassing odours. This is further enhanced by Ozone AND UV-C sterilisation to kill 99.95% of all bacteria and virus material that pass through the clearzone Unit. Clearzone also breaks down and removes chloramines which are the by product of chlorine which causes the skin, eye and respiratory irritation typically associated with chlorine. This process makes the task of managing the quality of your spa water much easier. It leaves you with much clearer water, significantly reduced need for chemical sanitisers, and greatly reduced chemical odours. Clearzone also significantly increases the length of time between the need to change the spa water.

Combining smart technology with easy water care, we've created the most energy efficient way to maintain perfect water quality
The SV Series Smart Filtration delivers the lowest possible daily filtration cost by recognising the spa is filtering whilst heating and automatically adjusting filtration cycles to account for runtime spent during heating. Other spa controls run fixed amounts of filtration not considering pump runtime during heating resulting in higher energy consumption for no benefit
The One Touch Sanitise button activates a 20-minute water clean cycle that immediately engages the ozone/UV sanitiser module and filtration pump and also sequentially operates all jet pumps and the blower to purge plumbing lines and refresh water quality after spa use. Upon exiting the spa, a simple button press activates the cycle, refreshing the water when it is needed the most.
Spas come in many shapes and sizes and usage time and frequency varies between spa owners. In addition, different spa chemical treatments demand varying lengths of filtration runtime. The SV Series Smart software allows easy adjustment of the daily filtration runtime from 1 -24 hours via a user-friendly menu in the spa-side keypad.
A ten-minute automatic daily sanitising cycle that engages all pumps and blowers in sequence to purge plumbing lines while filtering and running the ozone/UV sanitiser. This feature guarantees no stagnant water becomes trapped in accessory pump or blower lines during days when the spa is not being used, ensuring all spa water remains fresh and ready for your next spa use.
