Ice bath set up - Quick guide to setting up your Chill Tub

Ready to brave the cold with your new home ice bath? You've taken the first step and you are now well on your way to experiencing the cold plunge benefits. Lets get your chill tub set up and ready to use. 

Ready to plunge into your new at home ice bath? Before you crank up the chill, here are two key steps to consider:

1. Free the air vents: Make sure nothing blocks the vents on the chiller/fan unit on the side. Blocked vents can prevent your Chill Tub from cooling properly.

1. Let the coolant settle: Once you've found the perfect spot for your new recovery tub, lay it flat for 24 hours. Think of it like a fridge or freezer - the coolant needs time to settle before you can use it. You can fill the ice tub with water after this rest period, but wait another 24 hours before turning it on.

For detailed instructions and safety information, remember to consult the full chill tubs manual before taking your first cold water plunge. 

Step 1: 

Place a garden hose into your new cold water plunge pool. Your new ice bath will be completely filled within 15-30 minutes, depending on your water pressure. For the Chill Tubs Pro ice bath, please fill via filter housing. 

Step 2: 

Plug in your home ice tub into a 13amp plug socket and set your desired temperature on the ice baths control panel. 

Step 3: 

After a few hours wait, you will be able to start using your new chill tubs home ice bath. 

Step 4:

We recommend emptying your ice bath water every 8-12 weeks and then repeating the steps as outlined above. We hope you enjoy your new at home ice bath!
