The ChillX Chiller, a metallic portable cold plunge with wheels and digital display, sits on a wooden deck near a large black-and-white planter, basking in sunlight with water visible in the background.

Setup takes under 20 minutes, excluding filling and cooling. Place the tub on a level, water-resistant surface, connect the supplied hoses between the tub and chiller, fill with water, purge the air from the system, and connect to a dedicated 110V / 60 Hz, 15A outlet. No permanent plumbing is required for standard installation.

Replace the filter cartridge every 3–4 weeks, or sooner as needed, depending on usage and water quality.

When following the recommended sanitation protocol, change the water approximately once a month. Without sanitizers (not recommended), change the water at least every two weeks. More frequent changes may be needed depending on usage and water quality.

Rinse the pre-filter mesh on the chiller inlet regularly.

After draining, gently wipe the tub’s interior with clean water and a clean, soft microfiber cloth, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive sponges, scouring pads, steel wool, and harsh household cleaners.

Follow the guidelines in the User Guide for water care, sanitation, and maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

What makes The Barrel a standout choice?

The Barrel collection delivers a full cold immersion experience in a vertical, space-efficient form. Both the Cyber Barrel and the Star Treatment 2.0 are constructed from 316 marine-grade stainless steel, fully insulated, and paired with a 1.0 HP chiller capable of reaching 32°F. The Cyber Barrel is finished entirely in stainless steel for a minimalist, industrial profile. The Star Treatment 2.0 pairs a 316 marine-grade stainless-steel interior with an engineered wood exterior, available in Brown or Grey. Each system includes steps, an insulated cover, and integrated filtration with ozone sanitation.

Who is The Barrel best suited for?

The Barrel is designed for anyone who values a compact footprint without compromising immersion depth. It suits patios, balconies, home gyms, and smaller outdoor spaces where a full-size rectangular system would not fit. Users who prefer an upright posture during cold immersion, or who find the aesthetic of a barrel-style system more aligned with their space, will find it particularly well suited. The Star Treatment 2.0 is the natural choice for those drawn to the look of wood. The Cyber Barrel is built for those who prefer a clean, all-metal finish.

Are the steps included with The Barrel?

All barrel models are fully insulated and include exterior access steps. The Cyber Barrel Silver and both Star Treatment 2.0 finishes also include an integrated interior seat/step. The Cyber Barrel Black does not include an interior seat/step.

How much floor space does The Barrel need?

The complete barrel system layout measures 72″ × 55″, including the tub, exterior steps, chiller, and required ventilation clearance. Maintain at least 12 inches of clearance on all sides of the chiller; this clearance is already accounted for in the stated layout.

Does The Barrel chiller save money versus using bagged ice?

The included ChillX system cools water to 32°F and offers ice-making capabilities, eliminating the need to routinely purchase bagged ice.

Does The Barrel also function as a hot tub?

Yes. The chiller included with every Barrel system also heats water up to 107°F, making it a year-round tool for both cold immersion and warm water recovery or contrast therapy.

What are the electrical requirements for The Barrel?

ChillX requires a dedicated 110V / 60 Hz, 15A outlet. GFCI protection is included with the system.

Do I need special plumbing or a water line?

No permanent plumbing is required for standard installation. Fill the tub using a garden hose and drain it through the built-in drain valve. Custom direct-drain configurations are available upon request and require planning and installation by a qualified plumber.
