After struggling with a traditional ice bath setup using a high-end $3,000 chiller, I was honestly ready to give up. That system—like most ice baths on the market—was loud, ran constantly (day and night), and produced a huge amount of condensation on the pipes, the bath, and the unit itself. It also blasted out hot air, required constant cleaning and filter changes, and eventually broke down from overuse. It just wasn’t sustainable.
Then I discovered Plunge City… and what a breath of fresh air! This is truly a masterpiece of design. It’s built like a fridge with a fiberglass tub and a built-in filter pump. That means no condensation, no loud noise, and barely any run time thanks to excellent insulation. Best of all, it cools down to -2°C—something I couldn’t get from any chiller setup, which topped out around 3°C.
Setup was a breeze, maintenance is simple, and the internal pump and filter are super easy to manage. On top of that, the customer service has been absolutely top-notch.
If you’ve been frustrated with traditional chiller-style ice baths, do yourself a massive favor and switch to Plunge City. Highly recommended!
