Cold Plunge Cost: Tub, Chiller, Water Care and Electricity
September 27, 2026 2 min read
Short answer: Cold plunge setups we carry range from $799 for an inflatable tub to $13,649 for a Frozen series system. Ice-cooled tubs are cheapest to buy but cost ice each session. Chilled systems run roughly $2,300 to $13,000 and add electricity, filter and sanitizer costs. Budget for delivery, electrical work and a cover.

Running costs
- Electricity. kWh = kilowatts × hours. As an illustration only, a chiller that draws 0.6 kW and runs 4 hours a day uses 2.4 kWh a day, or about $0.38 at $0.16 per kWh. Check your chiller's rating and your rate.
- Ice. For ice-cooled tubs, add the cost and hassle of ice each session.
- Filters and sanitizer. Cryospring sells replacement filters ($45 for six). Other brands list their own.
- Water. Fill, drain and refill on the manufacturer's schedule.
- Cover. A cover keeps debris out and saves energy. See the Cryospring solar cover ($99).
One-time extras
- Delivery and setup.
- Electrical work and ground-fault protection.
- A stable base, steps and non-slip surfaces.
- A thermometer and timer.
