Tiger River ® Spas Beautiful. Strong. Silent.

From a Purr to a Roar From a gentle, comforting caress to a powerful
and invigorating massage, you can customize your
spa experience with a variety of jets in your
Tiger River spa. Hydromassage jets rejuvenate sore
muscles and can soothe arthritis pain. Direct their
powerful, healing warm water and air to where it’s
needed most with the interchangeable, directional,
flow-enhanced nozzle, or the dual-port rotary nozzle
for a pulsating jet action. Precision® jets deliver a
firm, finger-like pressure. Our exclusive high-powered,
high-output JetStream® jet invigorates your body with
deep massage action.
Our Jet-Cluster™ systems are groups of jets that
concentrate soothing power to the muscle groups in
your back and shoulders - the areas that most often store tension.
Each spa offers a variety of Jet-Cluster systems, so you can eliminate
stress with a deep, masseuse-style back rub, or ease tension with a
more gentle treatment. And after a long day, our FootWell® system
removes miles off your tired feet.
Power and Grace The SmartJet® system lets you divert water to different
combinations of jets and fine tune the feel of your hydromassage -
all with the simple turn of a lever. A highly efficient manifold
plumbing system ensures even water flow to each jet. And the
Comfort Control® system lets you dial in the ideal amount of air -
more for stronger performance, less for a softer touch. The air/water
mix is actually the key to feel. The result is a custom hydromassage
unlike any you’ve ever experienced.
Let The Water Tame You The therapeutic use of warm water, known as hydromassage, is a proven, natural remedy. Warm water, combined with buoyancy and pressure, creates an
experience that is both rejuvenating and soothing. Whether it’s to unwind from the complexities of everyday life, wash away muscle and joint pain caused by
sports or arthritis, or help you sleep more restfully, your Tiger River® spa helps you relax and feel better. And it’s fun! An invigorating, soothing spa is the perfect
place to bring your family together to reconnect and talk about the day.

All jets include stainless steel fittings.
T I g E R R I V E R ® S P A S
Nestle yourself in comfortable sculpted seating or stretch out on a
full-length lounge. Our multi-level design accommodates adults and
children of varying sizes, and allows you to enjoy a full-immersion
experience. Our spa shells are gracefully crafted and available in
an elegant opalescent finish or a more textured granite-like style,
accented with stainless steel jet fittings for the perfect finishing touch.
The contemporary styling of each Tiger River® spa is enhanced
by a soothing blue dimmer-controlled light. This extra-large LED
light uses far less energy than a standard light bulb and is rated to
provide up to 100,000 hours (over ten years) of illumination before
requiring replacement. The optional Luminescence® LED
lighting system lets you select from multiple colors to set
your mood and spa aglow, while the optional Clarion®
LED external lighting system adds a special ambiance
to the spa’s exterior. You can also enjoy the soothing
sound of the Amur® water feature in selected spas.
Backlit by blue LED lighting, the Amur water feature
adds to your sense of tranquility.
Stylishly Soothing
Built Well to Serve Well Your Tiger River spa is engineered to extend the life of your spa. Our innovative SureWood® cabinet delivers the warmth of natural
redwood plus the long life and low maintenance of rigid polymers, and features a three-year limited warranty. The lip-over shell design
gives a finished look. And every Tiger River spa is thoroughly inspected at each stage of production, tested before delivery and backed
by our straightforward, limited warranty.

Clean and Simple
You can always count on clean, hot water in your
Tiger River spa. Although you won’t hear it running, the
cleaning system in your Tiger River spa is always on the
prowl with a continuous filtration system, so there’s no need
to plan your spa usage around the long cleaning and
heating cycles other spas require. And when it’s time to drain
and refill your spa, you’ll appreciate the spa’s floor drain,
which eliminates the need to bail water.
To enhance your water care routine, consider the optional
EverFresh® system. It offers a more natural approach to
sparkling clean water by combining the cleaning power of
ozone with the ongoing protection of silver ions. The optional
FreshWater® III high output ozone system uses a Corona Discharge
cell to continuously generate a high concentration of ozone.
The optional FreshWaterAg+® continuous silver ion purifier introduces
silver ions into the spa water, inhibiting bacteria growth. And
our chlorine-free oxidizer activates the silver ions to refresh and
brighten spa water.
Instinctive Ease
Sophisticated design, simple operation. Your Tiger River® spa is controlled
by the advanced electronic circuitry of the IQ 2020® spa control system.
Just select your desired temperature on a user-friendly control panel and the
system does the rest. Because the heating and filtration are automatic, no
programming is required - just “set it and forget it.”
For added security, lock in your desired
temperature and keep uninvited users
out simply by entering a touch code -
no keys to lose. With the push of a button you can activate a clean-up cycle
that shuts off automatically after ten minutes. The stylish control panel
features a reversible LED display. And for even greater convenience, the
optional IQ 2020® deluxe remote
control lets you operate the spa’s
electronic functions while you sit back
and relax.

Bred for Endurance Look beyond its artful design and you’ll find your
Tiger River® spa is all muscle with reliable, efficient and
durable components.
Our unique No-Fault® heater’s elements and housing
are made of titanium, which delivers unmatched corrosion
resistance. You’ll enjoy peace of mind because
your heater warranty is valid for 5 years,
regardless of water chemistry.
Tiger River spa technology maximizes
energy efficiency, too. The No-Fault heater is
specifically designed to work in harmony with
our circulation pump, transferring heat efficiently.
Dedicated jet and circulation pumps use only
the energy needed. The low-amp SilentFlo 5000® circulation
pump draws less energy than a 75-watt light bulb. The
Wavemaster® jet pump delivers a powerful flow in all Tiger River
spas. And models with the HP symbol have even
higher horsepower pumps to power additional
jets and water features. A patented pump shroud vents
heat from the equipment compartment, creating a cooler
working environment for your spa’s hard-working components.
Insulated from the Outside World
Because of its energy-saving features and materials, your Tiger River spa
requires only a small amount of power to maintain the water at a constant, ideal
temperature. Underneath its superior exterior construction are multiple layers of
high-density polyurethane foam, trapping heat inside. Many other spas often
use cheaper, low-density foam that can absorb moisture. Tiger River spas, by
contrast, are totally insulated, not just fully-foamed. While
all Tiger River spas include these energy efficient features,
look for the models with the EE symbol
to find those which have been specially
configured to be the most energy efficient
spas available.
Our custom fit, fully-insulated thermal cover has an
exclusive “shoe” in the cover hinge which creates a tight
seal, locking in precious heat. Equipped with child-resistant safety locks and UL
Classified in accordance with ASTM safety standards, the cover is made of the
highest quality, marine-grade vinyl and is tapered for water runoff. And, our
optional cover removal systems extend the life of your cover, conveniently storing
it off the ground.
www.tigerriverspas.com 1110
Simple from the Start Your Tiger River® spa is not only easy to own but also to set up. Because
it’s above ground and fully self-contained, there’s no expensive construction or
plumbing required. In addition, the Bengal® and Sumatran® models operate on
115 volts, so there’s no need for hard wiring and electrical hook-up costs are
minimized. Of course, the sophisticated IQ 2020® spa control system also allows
these models to operate on 230 volts.
More than 950 Authorized Dealer locations throughout the United States, Canada and over 60
other countries have professional sales and service staff to support you before, during and after the
sale. Our authorized dealers enjoy the benefits of DeTECHtive®, a sophisticated software tool that
provides step-by-step diagnostic instructions, detailed parts lists and electrical schematics for all Tiger
River spas. This unique personal technical advisor’ helps your dealer deliver the finest in customer care.
Keeping you Safe Tiger River spas, along with Hot Spring® spas, are the only spas with NSF P181
certification, meaning they’ve met comprehensive standards for overall safety and
performance of the entire spa – not just certain parts. With the introduction of P181
certification, the NSF raised the bar in spa safety. Relax with the confidence that
your hot tub was built with your family’s health and safety in mind as certified by the
NSF, a not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to help consumers Live Safer™ everyday.
