Toronto UV
Best where access is tight — 82 cm deep so it gets down a 90 cm side path, with 100 sq ft of filtration. Matched to the Erie on seats, jets, power and water care.
Erie SE
The deeper, more therapeutic soak — 89 cm deep, with high jets in two captain's chairs to target the neck and shoulders. Choose it if you have 95 cm of side access.
The Toronto UV and the Erie SE are, on paper, the same hot tub: both seat six, both run a 10 HP system in a 213 × 213 cm footprint, with the same Ozone and UV-C water care and built-in lighting. So the choice really comes down to two things — how deep you want to soak, and how much room you have to get it into the garden.
The Erie SE is the deeper spa, at 89 cm versus the Toronto's 82 cm. That extra depth, together with jets set high in its two captain's chairs — proud of the water line — lets it target the high-tension areas of the neck and shoulders. It's the more therapeutic soak of the two.
The Toronto UV is the easier fit. Being shallower, it'll travel down a side path of around 90 cm, where the Erie needs nearer 95 cm — so if access to your garden is restricted, the Toronto may be the one that actually reaches the spot. It also carries more filtration: 100 sq ft across two filters, versus a single 50 sq ft filter on the Erie (both with antibacterial media). For a typical household 50 sq ft is plenty, but if filtration is a priority the Toronto has the edge.
Either way you get the same Canadian-founded build, engineered for Canadian winters, with UK service and parts from Redhill. Not sure your access is wide enough? Book a showroom visit and we'll help you measure the route in.
