What Do You Mean by a Cold Plunge Tub?

The Chiller Tub is specifically engineered for cold water therapy benefits, the traditional bath practice rooted in ancient traditions. This hot tub is commonly used in Nordic spas, sports injury recovery, and muscle rejuvenation. Northern Lights chiller tubs utilize an Arctic Air Source Heat Pump designed to function as a water refrigeration unit. This system includes the following:

  • An external circulation pump and filter – They ensure continuous water circulation and cleanliness.
  • A titanium heat exchanger – This unit keeps spa water separate from the cold R410A refrigerant.
  • A built-in digital temperature controller – This system doesn’t require external controllers to require accurate temperature adjustments.

The refrigeration system operates efficiently and provides cold water consistently for your therapy sessions while maintaining commercial-grade quality.

What are the Significant Features of the Cold Water Therapy System?

Dual Functionality with Arctic Heat Pumps

Arctic Heat Pumps provide heating and cooling benefits throughout North America. This system works efficiently in temperatures as low as 20°F (-6°C) and can save you 60-80% on energy costs as compared to traditional electric heaters. The digital timer and auto-switch feature ensure an easy transition between heating and cooling modes to maintain your desired water temperature.

Complete Body Immersion

The Aqua Therapy tubs are specifically designed with an extra 5-foot depth that allows for safe and full-body immersion of most adults. This user-friendly design offers maximum therapeutic benefits without compromising comfort or safety.

Additional Spa Pack

If you live in colder climates, an optional spa pack can work like a backup heater and provide complete topside control over light, jets, and temperature.

Benefits of Cold Water Therapy

Cold water therapy is a time-honored practice which is celebrated for its enormous health benefits, including:

  • Reduced muscle and joint stress – This session helps with numbing nerves and releasing endorphins.
  • Decreased swelling – A cold water therapy session enables blood vessel constriction that reduces inflammation.
  • Boosted immunity – Cold water immersion produces cytokines that can strengthen the immune system.
  • Lowered blood pressure – Cold water therapy sessions can improve vascular health through blood vessel restriction.
