FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is the Chiller gonna run up my electricity bill?

No! The Power usage is only 280 watt, which is comparable to the freezer in your home.

Example of power usage: at 77°F (25°C) room temperature, and chiller temperature set at 46°F (8°C) will consume around 1.4-1.8 kWh per day (every 24 hours). With todays average kWh in the USA costing $0.35, that is just around $0.5 at per day in electricity cost to run The Pod Chiller 24/7. (These are estimates and can vary depending on the climate and temperatures where you live).

Is the Chiller really compatible with ANY tub?

Yes! The chiller comes with everything you need to connect it to any tub. The setup takes less than 10 minutes, and you don't need any tools etc. Simply place the 2 hoses into ANY tub, and watch the magic happen...

The chiller comes with pump and filter, so you simply put both hoses from the chiller into any body of water to start cooling it + the 20-micron filter will keep your ice bath sparkling clean.

The chiller is obviously also complatible with both our IcePod & our LongPod.

If you have any questions or need help, please email Hello@podcompany.com or use the live chat in the bottom right corner.

How is the Chiller so cheap compared to competitors?

We get this one a lot, but the answer is surprisingly simple. Our core mission at The Pod Company is to make healthy habits accessible for everyone, so you don't have to sell your kidney to be able to afford a premium ice bath.

Our water chiller is priced lower than our competitors, because we have developed it from scratch using components from chest freezers. We also negotiate the best prices with our suppliers for materials and components by ordering very large stock quantities, streamline our production process to reduce labor costs, and focus on essential features without adding unnecessary ones.

Our water chiller is a high-quality and affordable option for your ice bath needs, without the huge markup most other brands put on their ice baths.

How cold can it make my water?

Our standard chiller can cool the water in your ice bath down to 41°F (5°C) in climates below 85°F (30°C). And our pro chiller can cool your water down to 39°F (3°C) in climates over 85°F (max 110°F).

Both chillers can keep it at that temperature with minimal power consumption as it works on thermostat, which only turns on once every hour, to sustain the selected water temperature, resulting is minimal power consumption.

What temperature do you recommend?

We recommend starting out at around 59°F (15°C) if it's your first time, and then slowly lowering the temperature and duration for each session. That way your body will get acclimated to the cold.

We recommend setting the chiller temperature to 46°F (8°C) or above, as this will ease the power consumption & load on the chiller.

The recommended temperature from clinical studies has shown that the benefits from ice baths and cold therapy are achieved at any temperatures lower than 59°F (15°C)

How often should I clean the water filter?

We recommend cleaning the water filter attached to the chiller every 1-2 weeks. Simply take it out and rinse it with a brush and tap water.

It is important to replace the filter once per month to not damage the chiller due to restricted water flow.

You can order replacement cartridges here

How much will I save on ice?

Assuming each ice bath session requires around 15-40lbs of ice, and with an average cost of $3 per 10lbs, we have calculated that at 5 ice baths per week, the chiller cost is made back in 3-4 months. Investing in the water chiller is undoubtedly a smart financial & time saving decision if you're a regular ice plunger, plus you skip the hassle of buying ice.

What is the decibel level of the Chiller?

The water chiller is very quiet, see the readings below.

Standard chiller measures ∼44db noise level (comparable to a fridge)

Pro chiller measures ∼55 decibel noise level (comparable to a dishwasher)

Can I use the chiller outdoors?

Yes, Our chiller is built to withstand all the elements, your water stays clean and cold, even in the hottest climates.

Do be cautious in freezing conditions, and follow the recommendations in the manual that comes with your chiller.

It is essential that your chiller is running 24/7 should the outside temperature drop below freezing, otherwise the chillers pipes and internal tank can get damaged. With consistent water flow this should not happen.

We always recommend emptying the chiller from water by disconnecting the hoses and tipping it, to let water drain out, and thereafter storing it inside in non-freezing conditions until needed again. The purpose of the chiller is to operate in warmer temperatures, to keep your water cold, and there's no need to have your chiller connected to the IcePod, when it's freezing outside, as your water will maintain the cold temperatures needed naturally.

The Difference is clear

The Universal chiller offers the same cold water & product quality to expensive ice bath options, but at a fraction of the cost. We do this by leveraging our product engineering expertise and streamlined supply chain for cost savings, which are passed directly to you.

I used to fill my pod up with summer but wasn’t consistent since the water never got extremely cold. It also was a pain to buy ice each day and haul it to the backyard. The chiller was worth every penny. I know that my water is always the correct plunge temperature. I had been consistently plunging every day since I set it up!

Worth every penny! No longer worry about buying bags of ice and can just jump in every morning. Definitely recommend for anyone who lives in a warmer area or doesn’t want to spend the time and money buying bags of ice.

The Chiller has enhanced my cold plunge routine significantly! Gone are the days of struggling with 8lb ice cubes; it's always ready to use, and the filtration system means fewer water changes. The unit operates quietly and has reliably maintained the expected water temperatures.
