How the Ultimate Cold Plunge Works | Ozone Setup | Pump | Timers & Programming explained | DIY Guide

Take a look at the hidden setup for the Ultimate Cold Plunge. In this video, I'll show how everything works:

• Location and setup of the Ozone Generator
• Venturi Injector and Check Valve
• Installing a valve to drain the Cold Plunge
• Cleaning and Maintaining the Freezer
• Cleaning and Maintaining the Pump
• Programming Smart Plugs and a Smart Switch to control everything

// VIEW MY PROGRAM SETTINGS FOR THE SMART PLUGS AND SMART SWITCH

// WHY COLD PLUNGE?

// TEMPERATURE

A good temperature for your cold plunge is around 50°F. No need to go much colder. The benefits - like noradrenaline production - begin at 60°F water exposure.

!!! BE SAFE: ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE FREEZER HAS NO POWER (IS UNPLUGGED) WHEN YOU ARE USING THE COLD PLUNGE - AND REMOVE THE FREEZER DOOR LOCK !!!

*Note: These are what I used with my setup - although many of these are optional. Customize as needed for your own version. Also, prices displayed in video may vary from current market prices.

I used two of the (1.5 quart) kits and had a little left over.

🛒 Timers. (I now use programmable Smart Plugs and a Smart Wall Switch instead.)

Great videos, getting myself a chest freezer this week and I will be running the same setup.
Question regarding the drainage. If the waterlines are running over the sides of the freezer does this drainage system still work(i.e Split return/Input hose)? From my understanding this drainage setup works because of the hole at the bottom.
I was thinking of splitting the Output hose coming out of the pump before it passes the ozone generator for drainage. What do you think?

I just built my cold plunge to your exact specifications. Ran into a few snags here and there, but got it done. Thank you for the detailed video and the pdf's. Huge help.

Hi. Thanks for sharing.
If I use the cold plunge 2 o 3 times per week, 5 minutes each time, do I have to run the ozone everyday?

@ 3:06 can you tell me the style U-pvc compact ball valve you are using? I'd like to purchase online but don't want to buy something incorrect

Hi,


I’ve only seen this ozone generator with a 4 pin type of plug for circuit board. How did you convert it to electric cord?

[markoxer]

For the ozone generator did you cut the 4 pin plug and convert it to a regular one?

Hello, I hope you're well. I've often heard that you shouldn't get into the water while the freezer is still running, which I can understand. But I've also sometimes read that you shouldn't even touch the carcass as long as it's powered? What do you advise? Please, thank you in advance.

[cheynebrokate]

Can you leave JUST the pump going while using the cold plunge, since it isn't a submersed pump and is outside of the chest freezer and grounded? Keeping the water moving while using it would help prevent thermal layer.

[AB-mrgh]

What fitting did you use for the pump to get into the deep freeze? I'm having trouble finding one that has long enough threads to go through the floor of the freezer.

[GenuineArticle]

i finally finished following your full "recipe" for making the cold plunge. I haven't been able to try it yet because it wasn't getting cold. Now i realize it must be due to the thermostat sensor interfering. I applied JB water weld to the storage clips areas i removed from the inside walls, and while i was at it i put weld over the sensor at the interior. Do you know of methods to disconnect the chest freezer's temperature control thermostat sensor, have any tips or know anyone in my similar position and what they did?

[IAmBoxman]

Do you get any condensation on the water lines running to and from the pump? I heard a comment in another video that the temperature difference between the water and outside air can cause lots of condensation on the hoses.

[franciscovera]

Hi, nice video, what kind of paint you used for your freezer?

[EliKonsta]

Hey, nice setup! About how often do you drain your water?

[heenalu]

After 4months with the OZ has your filter shown any issues with the Pump. Reason why I ask is because you have the hose coming out of the filter at about 1 1/4, which is a lot of water then condensing the amount of water going through the Venturi injector. I would assume that the pump would have to work harder because of that.

[urumqix]

Great content with so much useful details, thank you!
I’m considering to get a laser chiller CW5200, looks like the power is okay go cool the water just the pump comes with it only goes 13L/min, with about 200L in my bath tub I feel is enough to cycle the water in every 15min. Any suggestions on this one?

[DanielEastman-hq]

Does the connector for the ozone constrict the flow of water by the pump? It looks like it goes from a large pump tube into a small straw size pipe for the ozone.

[Travislr]

Does This Ozone generator run the entire time its plugged in, i would like to run my pool pump and ozone generator on a smart plug to run for 1-2 hours daily automatically without having to manually turn on and off the ozone generator and pump. so i was looking into what ozone generator would automatically run as soon as it get power from the smart plug.

[justinmcclintock]

I was wanting to put a plunge in a storage room in my basement. Was worried about using ozone since it's not very well ventilated in that room. How do you manage any toxins being in your basement as well?

[Travislr]

What Size PVC is that connected to the 3/4 inch ID Tubing? Sorry if it's a dumb question, but I see the tubing going over the PVC so I was not sure if it was the same size or not!

[robertreeves]

Do you think the filter actually does very much? I was debating on just using a pump.
