  1. I have a similar cold plunge setup, however I added a pump, filter, and uv light. Whole setup cost less than $200 and the filter/uv light keep it clean for a long time between water changes.

  2. I’ve got the cold pod, it’s impressed me more than I though it would. Had it for about a year, here is the rundown on how it works best for me.
    – Paired it with a small chest freezer to make ice blocks (plastic containers) for daily plunges.
    – Using it daily keeps the temperature fairly low so that after twenty minutes with two ice blocks thrown in the water is in the mid to upper 40s.
    – Create a way to drain using PVC to garden hose connections, I forget the exact size but I built a drain method out of things from Home Depot.
    – Get a separate firepit cover to better insulate it from the sun, I use the included cover and then cover it all with a $40 round firepit cover that both protects it and keeps an extra layer between the sun and it as it’s outside.

    As Tim said, I’m super impressed with the cold pod. All in I’m about $280, if anyone wants a cheap cold plunge option that works pretty well, go with the cold pod.

  3. doing it daily requires ice. Even (2) bags per use, at $1/bag that's 2 dollars a day = $14/week = $728/year. I'm sure ice is more expensive, my point is buy a good quality cold plunge and pay it off over time if you can. 3 yrs of tims idea costs $2,184 — and his method isn't even technically a cold plunge bc of how NOT COLD the water gets

  4. I havent tried this stuff, but you could use frozen water bottles and big icemolds as a solution for reusable ice. Im thinking when i grt a cold plunge im going to make my own with a more sturdy barrel/trough. Im not too worried about it getting cold enough as it does get really hot here in the summer all the other times of the year are very cold for me, i actually worry more of the water becoming frozen solid

  5. I was about to buy it. But when they called it a trash bag. Hahaha. I remembered I have a kiddie pool. That'll be my cold plunge. I'll keep my 169. But great for apartments and traveling. So there is something to this.

  6. Tim, i was freezing five gallon bucket ice cubes in my chest freezer to later cool down my water in a pod just like the one that you recently got. Then i switched to a chilled water system.. basically you could get a chiller and have two hoses inside your pod at all times. I definitely recommend acquiring a water chiller to chill the water rather than using ice. It’s more efficient and no storage required for ice. I use hydrogen peroxide to keep it sterile, clean the filter once a month and I replace the water at same time. Cheers!

  7. Even this is too complicated and you’ll have to pay for bags of ice which is $10 a plunge. Get a 70 to 100 gallon trashcan and a small of chest freezers. Freeze buckets of ice chop them up with a hatchet, be sure to wear goggles because you will get ice chips in your face, I have been doing this for three years. Nothing to break super cheap 32 1/2° water every time.
