Everything you should consider before buying a cold plunge

Purchasing a cold plunge tub is a significant decision, particularly considering its price and all available options. Many questions arise, such as its horsepower, quality, available sanitation systems, and technological advancements. 

Navigating these choices can be daunting, but don't worry. We aim to tackle these uncertainties and equip you with the information necessary to choose the perfect tub for your needs. 

At Polar Monkeys, we have the largest selection of cold plunges. Our prices are wallet-friendly, and our cold plunges pack a serious cooling power of 0.8 horsepower compared to typical market offerings of 0.25 horsepower. Plus, they're smartphone-compatible, equipped with heaters, and deliver a quieter experience, all while being conveniently portable thanks to the wheels on our chillers. And for added style, you can select from a range of cool artist designs.

Let’s explore the realm of cold plunges and uncover the ideal must-have for you!

What qualities make for an excellent cold plunge tub?

Before making a substantial investment in a cold plunge, it's vital to understand the essential factors to consider when choosing the right one. Here, we'll outline the key elements we've identified while developing our cold plunges, from our Portal 2.0 to our Cyber Plunge

1. The Chilling Horsepower

Chillers make refrigeration possible and play a crucial role in cooling the water within cold plunge tubs. Their cooling capacity is measured in horsepower. The greater the horsepower, the quicker the water reaches ice-cold temperatures.

Cold plunge tubs are equipped with chillers ranging from 0.25 to 1.0 horsepower. A chiller with higher horsepower ensures faster cooling. Our cold plunges are available in two options: a professional-grade 1.0 HP home model and a commercial-grade 1.0 HP model. With higher horsepower than standard market offerings, we guarantee faster and more efficient cooling to enhance your experience.

Chillers with lower horsepower take considerably longer to cool the water from room temperature to ice cold, sometimes spanning days. As the water cools, weaker chillers struggle to maintain the ice-cold temperatures necessary for an effective cold plunge. Chillers with higher horsepower speed up the cooling process.

 

2. Heating Feature

Certain cold plunges are equipped with heating features, adding an element of versatility to their functionality. This innovative design allows users to alternate between invigorating cold plunges and soothing warm baths, providing a comprehensive hydrotherapy experience. Whether seeking to stimulate circulation or alleviate muscular tension, these advanced cold plunges offer a refined solution for holistic rejuvenation and restoration.

You're in luck! Our residential cold plunges come with a fantastic heating feature. They're all designed to cool down to a freezing 32°F (Making ice!) and warm up to a toasty 107°F.

 

 3. The Foundation of the Cold Plunge

The quality of the cold plunge is directly impacted by the materials utilized in its construction. Cold plunge options range from sturdy materials like steel and acrylic to inflatable choices crafted from vinyl or budget-friendly PVC. When choosing a tub for ice baths, there are important considerations. 


A cold plunge should be well-insulated to maintain cold water temperatures and avoid sweating,.

Accidental scratches or damage during usage or maintenance are common occurrences, highlighting the importance of sturdy tub construction.

It is advisable to prioritize a durable tub, particularly for frequent use.

Our Braindpod 2.0 and Star treatment 2.0 are excellent plunge options. The Brainpod 2.0 is our bestseller, while the Star treatment 2.0 has a unique vertical design that can take up less space in your home, making it more convenient if you have limited space!

 

4. Smartphone connectivity 

Certain cold plunges now offer the convenience of smartphone connectivity, allowing users to adjust settings and monitor temperatures remotely. This advanced feature enhances the user experience by providing greater flexibility and control over hydrotherapy sessions.

Stay connected to your cold plunge with our range of models, all of which feature smartphone connectivity. This innovative feature lets you control your cold plunge from anywhere, enhancing your relaxation routine with unmatched ease and convenience.

5. Sanitation and Filtration

An ideal cold plunge plunge should be simple to care for and keep the water fresh. Allowing the water to sit stagnant for extended periods can promote the growth of microorganisms. Contaminants such as dust, dirt, and hair may accumulate when the tub is in use, potentially compromising cleanliness.

Incorporating filtration and sanitation systems directly into the design enhances the functionality of a cold plunge. All of our cold plunge models feature integrated cooling, filtration, and sanitation mechanisms. This ensures you can enjoy crystal-clear, ice-free, and impeccably chilled water whenever desired.

6. Easy Set-Up

Installing a cold plunge can bring challenges, particularly with larger models and when residing in an upper-floor apartment. Assistance is required to create space and transport the tub into your home, and once set up, relocating it. We recommend asking a family member or a friend to help you set up your cold plunge. The chiller also has wheels, making the process smooth and hassle-free. At Polar Monkey, we provide in-home delivery services to bring the cold plunge directly into your home, and we'll also take care of disposing of any leftover packaging waste.

It's good that our cold plunges have a simple setup process of approximately 15 minutes. Simply plug it into a standard 120V outlet. We recommend having two individuals present for added ease, as the equipment may be heavy. Your order includes a detailed step-by-step installation guide and an instructional video to aid you throughout the process.

7. Warranty

A good warranty is a testament to a company's confidence in and dedication to its products. Given the susceptibility of electronics and appliances to breakdowns with regular usage, a warranty policy is essential for a quality cold plunge tub.

Most brands provide a 1 to 1.5-year warranty on the electronic components of their cold plunge tubs. Our products come with a year's warranty with the unique option to extend the warranty at your convenience. 


We provide 3-year and 5-year extended protection plans that expand your coverage starting from the date of purchase. These plans cover failures resulting from normal wear and tear and defects after the manufacturer's warranty expires.

Customer support is our top priority. We're committed to ensuring that our customers feel supported and at ease. We strive to be easily accessible, so you can always reach out to us whenever you need assistance. Your satisfaction is our ultimate goal, and we're here to help every step of the way.

8. Price

Cold plunges range in price from a budget-friendly tub to thousands for luxurious high-end cold plunges. While premium construction and features contribute to higher costs, a significant portion of the price is attributed to shipping and taxes.  

When selecting a cold plunge, it's evident that sometimes, a higher price denotes a better product, emphasizing the importance of quality over quantity. While it may be tempting to opt for a cheaper, mass-produced item, it's crucial to recognize that a higher price tag can signify superior craftsmanship and functionality. 

The proper cold plunge for you is made of better materials, with advanced technology, enhanced durability, and an excellent user experience. Prioritizing quality over quantity can ensure long-term satisfaction and value for money.

At Polar Monkeys, we take pride in being pioneers of high-quality, easily accessible cold plunges in the state of Florida, with shipping available across the entire US.

9. Delivery Time

The delivery time is another crucial factor besides price when selecting a cold plunge tub. Some tubs are custom-built to order, requiring additional time.

We offer free curbside delivery with next-business-day shipping.

10. Tub Accessories and Supplies 

While a cold plunge tub and its chiller power are essential for the experience, additional additions can enhance it further. These extras may include underwater lights, bath mats, timers, and phone holders. 

Our cold plunges offer underwater lights for no additional cost, and the Portal 2.0 and Brainpod 2.0 have artist designs available. 

We offer a range of additional tub supplies, such as our 6-month sanitation kit, insulated cold plunge cover, and filter replacement systems.
