What’s the difference between the Recovery Ultra and the Recovery POD+?
The Ultra is our most advanced ice bath, designed for maximum performance and durability.
Patented aluminium insulation — blocks heat, keeps cold in
Separate inner liner + outer tub — double leak protection
Extra-large build — 90 cm diameter, 85 cm height, spacious comfort
Choose the Ultra if you want the ultimate cold therapy setup for daily, intensive use.
Does the water heat up in the sun?
No. The Recovery Ultra is specifically engineered to block heat and keep your water ice cold, even in direct sunlight.
Its Ultra® dual-wall aluminium insulation, combined with a sun-reflective outer layer and reflective foil exterior, prevents external heat from penetrating while locking the cold inside.
The result: water that stays refreshingly cold for much longer than inflatable models, even during hot summer days or heatwaves — without constantly adding ice.
How much ice do I need?
It depends on the season. In winter, you often don’t need ice at all. To reach 5–3 °C, around 5 kg of ice may be enough.
In summer, you might need up to 20 kg to reach the same temperature.
Thanks to the Ultra’s advanced insulation, your water stays colder for longer — meaning less ice is needed over time.
Can I use it outdoors?
Yes. The Recovery POD is designed for year-round outdoor use. Its UV-resistant, weatherproof build ensures durability, even in freezing conditions.
The insulation slows down freezing in winter, though we recommend stirring the water once a day in very cold weather.
Does it come with a hard cover?
Yes. The Recovery Ultra includes our All-Weather Hard Cover.
Water- and dirt-repellent
Integrated thermal core for insulation
Snug fit with no air gaps
Durable outer shell for long-lasting protection
This cover doesn’t just keep out rain and debris — it actively helps maintain your cold water temperature, even on hot days.
Is the Recovery Ultra compatible with the Chiller PRO/ULTRA?
Yes. The Ultra comes with dual valves designed for seamless connection with both the Chiller PRO and Chiller ULTRA.
Pairing them together gives you the most advanced setup: active cooling down to 3 °C plus world-class insulation.
How do I keep the water clean?
The Recovery Ultra is designed for easy maintenance, but a few simple habits keep your water fresh for longer:
Always cover your ice bath with the All-Weather Hard Cover when not in use. This prevents dirt, insects, and debris from entering.
Water refresh frequency: – Summer: once per week – Winter: every 2–3 weeks
Cleaning: Wipe the liner with warm soapy water whenever you refresh the water.
Extended freshness: With our Ozone Generator or bromine tablets, your water can stay fresh and crystal clear for 3–4 weeks or longer.
Can I use Epsom salt in my ice bath?
Yes, adding Epsom salt is safe and can even provide additional health benefits such as relaxing muscles and easing tension.
⚠️ Do not use kitchen salt or road salt — these are not safe for your skin or your Recovery ULTRA.
Can I add bromine to the water?
Yes, bromine tablets or powder can help keep the water cleaner for longer. It’s gentler on the skin than chlorine and extends water freshness.
For best results, we recommend using our Ozone Generator — this keeps your water even clearer and reduces the need for chemicals.
How long should I stay in an ice bath?
For most users, 3–5 minutes in water below 15 °C delivers the best results.
This provides all the benefits of cold therapy without overexposure.
Can I use the Recovery Ultra without a Chiller?
Yes, absolutely. The Recovery Ultra is fully functional as a stand-alone ice bath. Simply fill it with cold tap water, or add ice manually for extra cooling. Its advanced Ultra® insulation ensures the water stays cold significantly longer than inflatable models, even in hot weather.
Fully independent use — no chiller required
Extra-large design for maximum comfort
Advanced insulation for extended cold retention
Hard Cover included for protection & efficiency
You can always upgrade later by connecting a Chiller PRO or ULTRA for active cooling down to 3 °C.
I’m taller than 1.80 m — will I fit?
Absolutely. The Recovery Ultra is larger than our other models, with a 90 cm diameter and 85 cm height.
It comfortably fits users up to 2.20 m tall, offering unmatched space and comfort for full-body immersion.
Are The Plunge ice baths easy to clean?
Yes. The Recovery Ultra is designed for hassle-free maintenance. Simply drain the water using the outlet valve and wipe down the inner liner with a soft cloth before refilling.
We recommend refreshing the water weekly, though this depends on use frequency and habits (like rinsing before entering).
How long does it take to set up?
The Recovery Ultra is designed for quick, tool-free assembly. The modular aluminium frame clicks into place in under 5 minutes.
Simply unpack, set up the frame, insert the liner, and fill with water. That’s it — ready for your plunge.
Where should I place my ice bath?
Outdoors on a flat surface such as grass, stone, or decking. A slight slope is no problem — the Recovery ULTRA is designed to remain stable.
For best results, use it with our POD XL Mat, which gives extra stability on any surface.
Why try cold therapy?
Cold therapy helps your body recover by reducing muscle soreness, inflammation, and swelling while improving circulation and energy.
It also strengthens the immune system and builds mental resilience — boosting your mood, focus, and sleep.
At The Plunge, we believe in making powerful recovery methods accessible for everyone, not just elite athletes.
Do you really offer a 60-day return policy?
Yes, absolutely! We are so confident in the quality of our product that we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.
You can return the product within this period in resellable condition for a full refund, excluding return shipping costs.
Chiller FAQ
Do I still need ice with the Chiller?
No! With the Chiller PRO or ULTRA you’ll never need ice again.
Both systems actively cool the water down to a frosty 3 °C and maintain it there, so you can plunge any time without hauling ice bags.
PRO: Designed for daily use, cools consistently to 3 °C.
ULTRA: delivers the same 3 °C, but with faster cooling and more stability even in hotter climates or when cooling larger tubs.
How do I keep the water clean?
Each Chiller comes with a washable metal filter that continuously circulates and cleans the water. To keep your setup fresh:
Always keep the ThermoDome® lid on when not in use.
Refresh the water weekly in summer, every 2 weeks in winter (without additives).
For the best hygiene and crystal-clear water, add our optional Ozone Generator.
Why is the chiller bundle cheaper than buying separately?
This is a special launch offer. By bundling the Recovery Ultra with the Chiller PRO or ULTRA, we pass savings directly to our community. You get the complete setup for hundreds less compared to buying individually — but only while this batch lasts.
How fast does the Chiller cool the water?
Chiller PRO: Brings water down to 3 °C consistently. Cooling speed depends on starting water temperature and climate.
Chiller ULTRA: Engineered for maximum power and faster cooling. Even in hot climates or with larger volumes (like the Ultra tub), it maintains 3 °C with ease.
No matter the season, your plunge will always be ready — session after session.
How long does setup take?
The Recovery Ultra + Chiller combo is designed to be fully plug & play:
Connect the included hoses with quick-connect fittings.
Fill your Recovery Ultra with water.
Plug in the power cord and press start.
That’s it — you’re ready to plunge in just a few minutes. No tools, no hassle.
Is the Chiller compatible with other ice baths?
Yes. Both the Chiller PRO and ULTRA use a ½-inch BSP standard thread, which fits most ice baths worldwide.
For optimal performance, we recommend pairing with the Recovery Ultra, since it was engineered with a dual-valve system and premium insulation for seamless integration.
Will the Chiller increase my electricity bill?
Not significantly.
Chiller PRO: ~280 W on average (similar to a home freezer).
Chiller ULTRA: slightly higher due to its faster cooling power, but still energy-efficient.
In most cases, the running cost is less than regularly buying ice, while giving you constant cold water on demand.
Can I use it outdoors?
Yes. The Recovery Ultra and Chiller are both designed for outdoor use:
ICE Bath Ultra: Weatherproof, UV-resistant, and equipped with patented aluminium insulation to block external heat.
Chiller: Splash-proof and safe outdoors on a stable surface.
For extreme weather (storms, heavy snow, or long periods of rain), we recommend covering or temporarily sheltering the Chiller to extend its lifespan.
How do I connect the Chiller?
Connection is simple:
Attach the inlet & outlet hoses with quick-connect fittings.
Plug the unit into any standard outlet.
Press power and start chilling.
No tools, no plumbing, no stress.
How loud is the Chiller in use?
Surprisingly quiet for its cooling power:
Average sound output is 55–65 dB (similar to normal conversation).
Outdoors or a few meters away, most users find it barely noticeable.
The ULTRA, despite being more powerful, remains within the same low-noise range.
Do you really offer a 60-day return policy?
Yes, absolutely! We are so confident in the quality of our product that we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.
You can return the product within this period in resellable condition for a full refund, excluding return shipping costs.
Fast Shipping, good quality! I ordered the Plunge ice pod as a gift for my partner. He is really happy with the quality and used it already multiple times.
The Plunge helped me enormously during my recovery from burnout.
Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 110 reviews.
Ik heb 3 weken geleden de Recovery Ultra besteld.
Deze werd binnen 24 uur geleverd. Hij is licht van gewicht maar toch stevig en je zet hem heel snel op.
Met mijn 1.92 meter kan ik er ook goed in zitten. Als Wim Hof fan douche ik al meer dan 5 jaar iedere dag koud. Het voordeel van een bad t.ov. een foto’s dat je lichaam gelijkmatig aan de kou wordt blootgesteld en dat vind ik toch prettiger.
Het water is nu een graad of 16 als ik er ‘s ochtends in stap. Ik zit dagelijks een minuut of 10 in en begin op die manier vol energie mijn dag 😊.
Kan nu mooi wennen aan de temperatuur van het water die richting de winter natuurlijk lekker omlaag gaat.
Kortom: prima product!
Kan het iedereen aanraden.
Koud water is zó goed voor je gezondheid en je immuunsysteem….
Perfect ice bath! I didn’t expect it to be this big – my husband (who is 196 cm tall) and I can both fit comfortably. I bought it as a birthday gift, and I can honestly say it was the perfect present! A new experience, amazing impressions, and top-quality product. We will use it every day and I truly recommend it to anyone looking for a spacious, high-quality ice bath.
Betreft aankoop ijsbad recovery ultra.
Alles heb ik ervaren als erg goed.
1. De site is duidelijk en geeft de juiste informatie.
2.De support(mail)m.b.t. een aantal vragen werd snel en deskundig beantwoord (3 X mailcontact gehad).
3.Het product werd op beloofd tijdstip afgeleverd.
4.Instructie voor klaarmaken ijsbad was duidelijk, hoewel punt 2 van de instructie wat onduidelijk voor me was.
5.IJsbad lijkt erg goed van kwaliteit (ja ook de”deksel” is goed).
6.De eerste ervaring in het (ijs)bad is heerlijk hoewel dat nog niet op ijskoud stond (20 graden).
Kortom: Erg tevreden!
Zeer tevreden over dit ijsbad. Het materiaal is stevig, goed geïsoleerd en van hoge kwaliteit, waardoor het bad stabiel aanvoelt en lang meegaat. Na gebruik merk ik dat mijn spieren sneller herstellen en ik me zowel fysiek als mentaal frisser voel. Het ijsbad geeft me meer energie, focus en helpt bij ontspanning en stressvermindering. Absoluut een aanrader.👌🧊
---
Het bad en de mat werden snel geleverd, makkelijk op te zetten en in gebruik te nemen. Heerlijk!
Helaas is de cover die erbij zit NIET wat er op de foto op de website staat; zeker geen hardcover. Na enig heen en weer ge-email werd deze toch als de juiste cover en ook als hardcover betiteld. Jammer.
Wat meer informatie over hoe je het bad koelt (ja met ijs maar hoeveel?) zonder chiller en koud houdt (neemt de omgevingstemperatuur aan) zou fijn zijn. Ook over hoe frequent te legen, gebruik van ozongenerator vs chloortabletten vs geen maatregelen en hoe het beste te legen en schoon te maken zou handig zijn.
Great product, I highly recommend it for recovery after sports. Also the customer service team is very helpful and help me made a choice before purchasing. Overall great product, great service
De chiller pro met ultra bad aangeschaft.
Al met al een fijn product, de chiller werkt goed, geluid valt mee. Het ultra bad is ook lekker groot en stevig. Heerlijk genieten van de ijsbaden. Samen met de ozon generator blijft het water echt lang schoon ook.
Het enige nadeel van het bad is de cover, zogenaamd 'hard' cover, maar zo hard is die niet. En zoals te zien op de foto, zakt die helemaal in met regen. Erg jammer want de cover op de productfoto ziet er veel steviger uit, maar deze krijg je er dus niet bij.
Verder kan er wel in de communicatie nog heel veel verbeteren. Het bad werd lange tijd niet geleverd (koeler wel al gekregen), en heb veelvuldig moeten vragen alvorens er een nieuwe zending in orde werd gemaakt.
Maar uiteindelijk wel blij met het product.
Mooi icebad, zet makkelijk in elkaar. de hardcover vind ik tegenvallen, dat noem ik meer een softcover. ziet er wel echt anders uit als op de foto online. Maar makkelijk om in de tuin te hebben als natuurwater wat verder van huis is.
Zalig om even te resetten in een ijsbad en goed dat er kraantjes aan zitten om gemakkelijk te ledigen en later eventueel een chiller aan te zetten. 1 ster minder omdat het echt geen hard cover is. Niet echt erg maar false advertising
Mijn dagelijks ijsbad is echt geweldig! The Plunge zorgde voor een snelle en zorgvuldige levering. Mijn ijsbad is een The Plunge Ultra. Ziet er in het echt wel ietsje anders uit dan op de website, maar ok, daar kan ik mee leven. Het kost wat moeite om het water op temperatuur te krijgen, maar met een dagelijkse routine met ijs is dat uiteindelijk wel gelukt en ik "geniet" er elke ochtend van. Een chloordrijver en de ozonizer zorgen voor het schoonhouden van het water...
Eerst twijfelde ik of dit het geld waard was, maar nu ik hem heb snap ik het volledig. Het bad is groot, stevig en je voelt meteen dat dit geen wegwerp plastic is. Ik ben 1m87 en heb nog steeds ruimte genoeg om echt comfortabel te zitten. Wat ik ook fijn vind is dat het water koud blijft, ik heb hem soms drie dagen laten staan en nog altijd bruikbaar. Opbouwen ging sneller dan ik dacht, wel wat gepruts met de hoes de eerste keer maar daarna logisch. Het neemt wel wat plek in maar eerlijk, het ziet er gewoon gaaf uit in de tuin. Mijn buren hebben het ook al uitgeprobeerd en waren jaloers haha.
