Starting a journey with cold water? This app has free guided content and inspirational stories with plenty more to come in this space. For Brass Monkey customers, this app helps your bath or barrel become even smarter: • Use it to connect your bath or barrel to the Brass Monkey cloud for remote monitoring, support and software updates • Control your Brass Monkey from anywhere and set eco schedules for it to be cooling only when you need it to • Access product guidance and get reminders of maintenance tasks • See the status of your Brass Monkey and get notified of any issues • For those with a Brass Monkey zero degree ice generating product, this new app gives greater control of the bath’s patented ice cycles, offering 3 levels of ice generating intensity. The new features this app brings from the last: • A redesigned interface to make navigation and bath status more intuitive • As customers were telling us they want more control over exactly when the cooling engine is on or off, we’ve also simplified the scheduling feature • We’ve simplified the ice cycles on ice baths. So now, under 2 degrees, you can now set the intensity of ice production, removing the guesswork of using a temperature setting to get ice • Improved responsiveness between the app, Brass Monkey cloud and your bath • Greater set of maintenance reminders and issue alerts, with push notifications to your phone • Water flow rate alerts for chiller engine products.
