Description
The HydraTherm Deluxe Moist Heat Therapy System is the current-generation HydraTherm, built around a composite polymer tank that cannot rust and a digital thermostat that holds temperature within five degrees. Choose the unit on its own or the complete configuration with twelve HydraHeat packs, three of each shape, ready to heat on day one.
- Digital Temperature Control – the thermostat holds the 120 to 140 degree Fahrenheit range within plus or minus five degrees, with a clear digital readout.
- Built-In Drain Pump – the electric drain pump and divider system make cleaning and pack organization part of the routine, not a project.
- Rust-Free Composite Tank – the polymer tank holds up to 12 gallons and never rusts, stains, or corrodes.
- Two Configurations – order the unit alone or with the full twelve-pack HydraHeat set included.
Current-Generation Moist Heat for Busy Clinics
A moist heat station has to do three things well: hold temperature, keep packs organized, and clean up fast. The digital display and thermostat manage the first, holding the treatment range steady across a full clinic day. The divider system manages the second, keeping packs separated in the 12-gallon tank so staff can pull the right shape at a glance. The electric drain pump manages the third, emptying the tank for cleaning without tipping or siphoning. Clinics running high daily heat volume get a station that keeps pace without the rust and scale maintenance of older stainless units.

Why This HydraTherm Generation Earns Its Floor Space
Heating units fail clinics in predictable ways: temperature drift, rusty tanks, and cleanings that never happen because draining is a two-person job. This generation answers all three with digital control, a polymer tank, and a powered drain. The two configurations let a clinic buy exactly what it needs, replacement unit or complete station.
- Steady Treatment Temperatures – digital control within five degrees keeps pack temperature consistent from the first patient to the last.
- Cleaning That Actually Happens – the drain pump removes the friction from tank cleaning, so it stays on the schedule.
- Buy It Your Way – unit-only pricing for clinics with packs on hand, or the complete twelve-pack station in one order.
- Longer Service Life – a tank that cannot rust removes the most common reason heating units get retired.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the two configurations?
HT-TU-DLX is the Deluxe unit alone with its divider system, drain pump, and side shelf. HT-TU-D12 adds twelve HydraHeat packs, three each of the cervical, standard, oversize, and universal shapes.
How accurate is the temperature control?
The digital thermostat holds the adjustable 120 to 140 degree Fahrenheit range within plus or minus five degrees.
How is the tank cleaned?
The built-in electric drain pump empties the 12-gallon tank, and the manufacturer publishes step-by-step cleaning instructions linked in the manuals section.
Does the warranty differ by configuration?
Yes. The manufacturer documents two years of coverage when the unit is supplied with HydraHeat packs, and a one-year limited warranty when it is purchased without packs.
Will the tank rust over time?
No. The tank is composite polymer, so it cannot rust or corrode, and it holds up to 12 gallons with a 350 pound total working capacity.
