Advent® LCD Touchscreen Control

Advent® LCD Touchscreen Control

The Advent® LCD Touchscreen Control is Caldera Spas' premium-tier integrated control platform and the standard main control on every model in the Utopia® Series. The platform handles jet control, lighting, the optional wireless sound system, and the optional FreshWater® Salt System directly from one intuitive touchscreen control panel. The touchscreen anchors the Utopia® digital experience: jet control, lighting management, water-care monitoring, and audio routing all run through the same color LCD surface mounted at the spa, paired with the Caldera Spas App through the Connected Spa Kit. Advent® is standard equipment on all six Utopia® models. Seven Seas Pools & Spas demonstrates the Advent® touchscreen at every Utopia® showroom appointment.

A Touchscreen To Control Your Hot Tub

The Advent® LCD Touchscreen Control is a color LCD touchscreen mounted at the spa, paired with the Caldera Spas App for remote management. It is the main control surface on the Utopia® Series and is engineered as the digital nerve center of the spa.

The Advent® platform consolidates routine spa interactions into one touchscreen:

  • Jet control across the spa's pumps and jet groups
  • Lighting management for cabinet, perimeter, and water-feature lighting
  • Wireless sound system control as an optional accessory
  • FreshWater® Salt System monitoring and dosing prompts as an optional accessory on Utopia®
  • Temperature setpoint and filtration cycle scheduling

Within Caldera's lineup, Advent® LCD Touchscreen Control is standard on every Utopia® model. The Paradise® Series uses a related but simpler Advent® LCD Control System without the touchscreen, and the Vacanza® and Fantasy® series step down to plain LCD control panels and LCD screen interfaces.

How The Touchscreen Works

The Advent® touchscreen surface delivers:

  • Color LCD touchscreen at the spa for direct on-board control of every routine spa function

  • Auxiliary control panel included on every Utopia® model for secondary jet and lighting access from another seat position

  • UltraMasseuse® Panel as an additional auxiliary on the Cantabria® flagship, dedicated to controlling the UltraMassage® Lounge without leaving the lounger seat

  • Caldera Spas App integration through the Connected Spa Kit for off-site temperature, lighting, and water-care monitoring from a phone

  • Native pairing with the optional FreshWater® IQ Salt System for in-app water-chemistry readouts and Precision Dosing instructions

Advent® LCD Touchscreen Control

The touchscreen and the app share the same functional scope. Owners can drive temperature, lighting, jets, and water-care monitoring from either surface. The Connected Spa Kit is the dedicated bridge between the spa and the home network.

Showroom Touch and Try

The Advent® touchscreen is the kind of feature best evaluated in person. Seven Seas Utopia® showroom appointments include hands-on time with the touchscreen, the Caldera Spas App on the demo device, and a walkthrough of the Connected Spa Kit and auxiliary panel options.

The Cantabria® uniquely adds the UltraMasseuse® Panel as a dedicated auxiliary surface for the UltraMassage® Lounge. The lower Utopia® lounger models (Geneva®, Tahitian®, Ravello™) control the Lounge through the main Advent® touchscreen.

What Advent® Touchscreen Replaces in the Lower Tiers

The Advent® LCD Touchscreen is the dedicated premium-tier surface on the Utopia® line. The three lower Caldera series use simpler control hardware:

Paradise Series

Paradise® Series (mid-premium tier): Advent® LCD Control System without the touchscreen. The Paradise® uses the Advent® branded controller but as a non-touchscreen LCD interface, paired with the FreshWater® IQ Ready water-care platform.

Vacanza Series

Vacanza® Series (value-mid tier): LCD Main Control Panel or LCD Control Panel, model-dependent, not Advent®-branded. The Vacanza® line uses a simpler control surface paired with FreshWater® Salt System Ready hardware.

Fantasy Series

If you're cross-shopping into Paradise®, Vacanza®, or Fantasy® for budget reasons, know that the Advent® LCD Touchscreen experience is exclusive to the Utopia® tier. The Caldera Spas App is still available on Paradise® models through the Connected Spa Kit when paired with FreshWater® IQ Ready hardware. Lower tiers use simpler surfaces.

Advent® LCD Touchscreen and the FreshWater® IQ Salt System

The Advent® touchscreen pairs natively with the optional FreshWater® IQ Salt System on Utopia® models. The system's smart monitoring and Precision Dosing readouts surface on the same color LCD touchscreen that runs the spa's other controls, and on the same Caldera Spas App that handles remote temperature and lighting. Water-chemistry readings, dosing instructions, salt-cell status, and the rest of the spa's functions live in one app surface and one touchscreen, rather than being split across separate systems.

This native integration is one of the reasons that if you're reaching for FreshWater® IQ Salt on Caldera, the Utopia® series is the natural destination. The Advent® touchscreen is the most integrated way to interact with the salt platform.

Advent® LCD Touchscreen vs IQ 2020® Color LCD Touchscreen

The Hot Spring Spas counterpart at the premium tier is the IQ 2020® Color LCD Touchscreen, standard on the Highlife® and Limelight® series. Both Watkins Wellness control platforms deliver an in-spa color LCD touchscreen plus an app surface, with similar functional scope.

The control-system decision rarely drives the brand choice on its own. The hydrotherapy stack underneath each platform does. See the Caldera vs Hot Spring comparison for the deeper side-by-side. Seven Seas Pools & Spas carries both brands. Visit a Seven Seas showroom to handle each touchscreen in person.

Buying Considerations

The Cantabria® flagship adds the UltraMasseuse® Panel, a dedicated auxiliary control surface for the UltraMassage® Lounge. The Panel lets you adjust the Lounge's massage parameters without leaving the lounger seat. The UltraMasseuse® System on the Cantabria® offers 6 jetting sequences and 3 speeds, all addressable from the Panel. Lower Utopia® lounger models (Geneva®, Tahitian®, Ravello™) control the Lounge through the main Advent® touchscreen.

The Advent® touchscreen on its own is the at-the-spa control surface. The Caldera Spas App integration runs through the Connected Spa Kit, which bridges the spa to the home network. Off-site control of temperature, lighting, and water-care monitoring runs through the kit and the app.

Every Utopia® model includes an auxiliary control panel in addition to the main Advent® touchscreen. The auxiliary lets bathers in seats away from the main touchscreen reach jet and lighting controls without moving across the spa. On the Cantabria®, the auxiliary control includes both a general auxiliary panel and the UltraMasseuse® Panel.

Caldera uses the same Advent® LCD Touchscreen across the entire Utopia® lineup, which keeps parts inventory and diagnostic procedures consistent across all six models. Seven Seas processes Caldera warranty service locally for spas sold from our locations.

The Advent® touchscreen is the kind of feature best evaluated in person. Seven Seas Utopia® showroom appointments include hands-on time with the touchscreen, the Caldera Spas App on the demo device, and a walkthrough of the Connected Spa Kit and auxiliary panel options.
