Setup is quick and simple, typically taking just 5-10 minutes. Check out our chiller quick start page for more details!
The process is straightforward: inflate the tub using the included pump, place the chiller so that it has at least 39" of clearance behind the fan, connect the chiller unit to the tub using the easy hand-tight fittings, fill tub with water, and power up the system. Once the chiller self-primes, it begins cooling and filtering your water, capable of reaching temperatures as low as 37°F based on your preference or heating up to 108°F!
Everything you need is included - the 1HP chiller comes with an integrated, self-priming pump plus an ozone generator and filter to keep your water clean, so there's no need for additional equipment or complicated setup.
Controlling your plunge is effortless with our user-friendly touch control panel. You can also manage temperature settings remotely through our mobile app, compatible with both iOS and Android devices.

The cooling time depends on several factors: initial water temperature, ambient temperature and humidity, and the amount of water in your tub.
With a 100-gallon fill and room temperature water (around 70°F), you can expect:
- Initial cooldown to plunge temperature (37°F) in approximately 2.5-3 hours
- Once cold, the system maintains your desired temperature efficiently
Our commercial-grade 1HP chiller delivers consistent, powerful cooling performance that makes your plunge ready when you need it. Just fill, set your temperature, and let the system do the work.
The ideal plunge duration depends on both water temperature and your experience level.
If you're plunging at 37°F, you probably only need 3-6 minutes. If you keep your tub at 50°F, then ~10 minutes may be optimal. Always listen to your body and gradually build up your tolerance over time.
Yes! Our system is designed and certified for outdoor use. Note that the chiller should only be used outdoors when ambient temperatures are above freezing.
The chiller carries IPX4 water resistance certification and ETL safety certification, ensuring reliable performance in various weather conditions. You can confidently install your Immersion Plunge indoors or outdoors, knowing it meets rigorous safety and durability standards.
Our dual sanitation system keeps your plunge water crystal clear and hygienic.
The system features:
- A strainer for larger debris plus a 5-micron filtration (finer than many competitors' 20-micron filters) to remove particles, skin cells, and debris
- Built-in ozone generator for chemical-free sanitization
- Continuous water circulation for consistent cleanliness
For optimal performance:
- Clean the filter monthly by rinsing with water
- Replace filter every 1-2 months
- Change water approximately very 3-4 weeks
- Keep the tub covered when not in use
- Clean the tub's inner surface during water changes
Regular maintenance is minimal and straightforward. Here's what you'll need to do:
- Clean or replace the 5-micron filter (2 spare filters included)
- Occasionally clean the chiller's mesh screen
- Keep the tub covered when not in use
The commercial-grade chiller unit is fully sealed and leak-tested at the factory. Its heavy-duty pump system is engineered for longevity, with an expected lifespan of 5+ years under normal use.
Your Immersion Plunge comes with a 1-year warranty and repair kit, though they're rarely needed thanks to our robust build quality.
No - our chiller uses efficient refrigeration technology, similar to the refrigerator in your kitchen, Man Cave, or She Shed.
