These updates reflect Vortex Spas™ commitment to delivering high-quality products that align with evolving consumer expectations and industry standards, maintaining its global reputation as an innovative spa brand.
The 2024 Vortex™ Spa Pools have nine key updates from previous models.
Important note: The 2024 Vortex™ Spa Pool's new features are currently available on select models, including Mercury™, Nitro™, and Nitro HP™.
Vortex Spa™ has shifted from the horizontal slats of previous models to slimmer vertical slats in the 2024 models. This design choice not only provides a more elegant and modern look but also offers an updated aesthetic that complements contemporary outdoor spaces.
Improvements to the footwell base include the removal of timber supports and a new design that ensures 100% support, significantly strengthening the structure and eliminating any flexing.
The 2024 Vortex™ Spa Pool models adopt a simpler yet highly efficient system by integrating Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Foam Boards.
By moving away from the foil-backed foam adhered to the inner panels, Vortex Spas™ delivers improved thermal retention, ensuring your spa remains at the desired temperature for longer periods, thereby reducing energy consumption and operational costs.
The introduction of a premium, more intuitive Spanet® SmartTouch™ touchscreen in the 2024 models marks a leap forward in terms of user interaction.
The shift from push-button touchpads to a more intuitive touch interface aligns with contemporary technology trends, providing spa owners with a seamless and more responsive way to control their spa settings.
The new jets come with a smooth matte look and chamfered edges. As with the earlier Vortex™ Hydroglow, backlit jets are still an available option.
Vortex Spas™ has redefined relaxation with its narrower and more ergonomic PlushFoam™ headrest design. These sculpted spa pillows are ergonomically optimised for greater comfort, and the materials used mean an even longer lifespan and reduced maintenance.
Vortex Spas™ were the first in Australasia with backlit drink holders, and these have been updated to serve dual functions, now accommodating the optional Vortex™ Wifi Audio Kit speakers.
This practical design allows for an effortless installation, enhancing the spa's entertainment capabilities while providing improved sound quality.
Please note: When no speaker is installed, a light shines from the top. If you install a speaker, the top light turns off, but you'll still see light coming from the front.
The Vortex™ Air controls have also changed from black to grey, paired with a more user-friendly venturi push-button system for easier air control.
Plastic parts like the filter cover and control area now feature a sleek grey, matching the updated headrests.
The sanitisation system has been enhanced with the Purezone™ AOS, which aligns the Ozone generator in series before the UV purifier for a more effective sanitising process.
Note: Chemical sanitisers are still necessary. Always follow the dosing instructions on the sanitiser label.
The 2024 Vortex™ Swim Spa have eight key updates on previous models. These updates are listed below.
Important note: The Vortex™ Swim Spa 2024's new features are currently available on select models, including Aqualap™, Aquagym Max™, and Hydrozone™.
Slim vertical slats replace previously wider horizontal ones, offering a more updated look to the swim spa's outer design.
The 2024 Swim Spa's cabinet is fitted with EPS Foam for improved heat retention and energy efficiency.
The spa controls now come with a SpaNet® SmartTouch™ touchscreen and an additional push-button auxiliary keypad for more convenient spa controls.
Note: The Vortex™ Hydrozone™ does not have a push-button keypad but has two SmartTouch™ keypads.
Vortex™ was the first in Australasia to have backlit drink holders. Similar to the spa pool models, the 2024 Vortex Swim Spa models have been updated to do more, fitting the optional Vortex™ Wifi Audio Kit speakers. This makes installation easy and improves the spa's entertainment with improved sound quality.
Please note: When no speaker is installed, a light shines from the top. If you install a speaker, the top light turns off, but you'll still see light coming from the front.
The jets now have a matte finish with a chamfered edge. As with the earlier Vortex™ Hydroglow, backlit jets are still an available option.
A second skimmer and more filters have been added to the swim spa to enhance water quality and balance the swim channel dynamics.
The three centrally located laminar jets have been optimally rearranged for ultimate relaxation and water activities.
An integrated grab rail replaces the previous bolt-on version providing a more seamless look and improved durability.
