Why the Polaris Spabot Stands Out

Built Exclusively for Spas

Compact rounded body navigates tight hot tub footwells, benches, and curved acrylic seats automatically.

60-Minute Spa-Ready Cycle

Cleans an entire hot tub or attached inground spa in just one hour on a 4-hour charge.

Floats to Surface When Done

Float-finish buoyancy brings Spabot to the top of your spa at cycle end—no reaching into hot water.

1-Liter Fine Grit Canister

Captures sand, grass, leaves, and grit tracked into hot tubs.

Slide-Switch Simplicity

No hoses, poles, or hand-pumping wand vacuums—slide on and drop in.

Acrylic & Plaster Spa Safe

Gentle traction and brushes work in portable acrylic hot tubs and gunite spas (check water temp limits).

Who the Polaris Spabot Is Really For

Best For

Hands-free cleaning in spas and hot tubs

The Bottom Line

A genuine category-of-one: the first fully autonomous cordless robot tiny enough to clean molded hot tub seats, footwells, and in-ground spas in 60 minutes.

The Spabot is Polaris's cordless robot for in-ground spas and above-ground hot tubs—not a swimming-pool cleaner. SpaNav is designed around the tight curves, benches and contoured seating that conventional pool robots are too large to navigate.

Built for spa geometry

Spas have curved floors, close corners, benches and molded seats instead of a broad pool floor. Polaris says SpaNav lets the Spabot float, dip and dive through those contours while its brush and intake collect large and fine debris.

One-hour cordless cycle

Slide the start control and the cleaner runs a 60-minute cycle from its rechargeable 49 Wh lithium-ion battery. There is no floating power cable to wrap around spa fittings or seating.

Float-finish retrieval

Rather than waiting on the bottom after a cycle, the Spabot becomes buoyant and rises to the water level for pickup. Its transparent one-litre canister lifts out to shake and rinse without touching the collected debris.

Before ordering

Make sure that the exact SB1000 listing fits your spa or hot-tub construction, and review the current seller, charger, one-year limited warranty and return terms on Amazon.

Important Spa Temperature Tip

Check the manufacturer's operating temperature range on the listing (typically up to ~95°F / 35°C—let hot 104°F spa water cool slightly during maintenance cycles to protect battery longevity). Also pair your spa or pool with our ICO Smart Water Monitor for 24/7 pH and sanitizer tracking.

Polaris Spabot FAQ

Can the Polaris Spabot clean a swimming pool?

It is purpose-built for in-ground spas and above-ground hot tubs. Use a pool-rated robot for a swimming pool.

How long is the cleaning cycle?

The Spabot runs a 60-minute cordless cycle.

How do you retrieve it?

Float Finish makes the robot buoyant at the end of its cycle so it rises to water level for pickup.

What is the model number?

The verified Amazon listing identifies this cleaner as Polaris SB1000.

Can I use the Polaris Spabot in a full-size swimming pool?

No—with a 60-minute battery and 1-liter canister, Spabot is engineered specifically for hot tubs and small spas, not full swimming pools.
