FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
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).
Yes. The chiller can easily be used with your current Ice Pod or even any form of other ice bath.
Connect to your existing IcePod: you simply connect the hose entering the water filter side of the chiller to the drain valve on your IcePod. And the second hose coming from the chiller pump goes into the IcePod over the top ring (see picture illustration in the product gallery).
Connect to any other Ice Bath:
You can also connect the chiller to any ice bath, bathtub, bucket - you name it. 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.

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.
Based on tests, here is an example of the chillers capability:
In an indoor environment, at 77°F (25°C) room temperature, our chiller can effortlessly cool the water in the Ice Pod down to 41°F (5°C), and 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.
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)
We recommend cleaning the water filter attached to the chiller once a month. Simply take it out and rinse it with a brush and tap water.
Assuming each ice bath session requires around 10-20lbs 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 4-6 months. Investing in the water chiller is undoubtedly a smart financial & time saving decision if you're a regular ice plunger.
