Read full description

bathomatic X is an application allowing your iPhone or iWatch to fill your bathtub to perfection locally or via the Internet. bathomatic is the world’s first and only fully automated bathtub management system since 2007. It consists of patented hardware and software in a variety of configurations to suit all residential, care or hospitality requirements. At the touch of a button bathomatic closes the drain, fills the bathtub to perfection, adding perfumes and scents. Apart from getting the perfect depth and temperature on the go, bathomatic can store 16 favourite baths including aromas into presets. Thus replacing the bathtub filling chore with the pure joy of bathing on demand where every bath is perfect and on time every time. Suitable for new and retro installations, including whirlpools, without drilling or other invasive bathtub alterations bathomatic suits all interiors as the only visible parts are the drain and overflow/filler. Even these are available in variety of finishes from chrome to gold with diamonds. bathomatic has an open API and drivers for the major home automation systems in addition to its own all-glass touch interface which is waterproof and screwless. What’s new?: This version was built from scratch with major changes in the way the application interacts with all available bathomatic systems and the back-end. Local connectivity is still available and the cloud solution has been redesigned for security and durability. Once paired a user can take the full benefit of Face ID and no longer needs to log-on for access. There is no limit to the number of bathomatic systems. Requires bathomatic® MK4 wired to a network with WiFi access. Legacy bathomatic® systems would require a hardware update or continue to bathomat app.
