The technique behind every Icetub
High-end cooling technology for a perfect ice bath
Many people assume that an ice bath is as simple as filling a tub with water and ice cubes. While that might work in a pinch, it doesn’t come close to delivering the efficiency and benefits of a professionally designed tub with a cooling engine.
Our Icetubs are engineered for consistent, long-lasting cold immersion, providing superior recovery and performance benefits. Whether you’re an athlete, a wellness enthusiast, or just exploring the benefits of cold therapy, understanding the technology behind our tubs will show why Icetubs are a cut above the rest.
Icetubs Engine™: Cooling and heating with precision
Our advanced IceTubs Engine™ does more than just cool your water — it provides precise temperature control, ranging from 3ºC to 38ºC. This allows you to enjoy both hot and cold therapy in one versatile product. While many competitors lack this option, we've engineered our Icetubs with top-quality materials and cutting-edge technology to meet a variety of needs, whether you're looking for deep cold exposure or soothing heat therapy.
With the ability to set your preferred temperature, our Icetubs are suitable for users at every level. If you’re new to ice baths, starting at 3ºC might feel too intense, so you can easily adjust the temperature to a level that feels comfortable and gradually progress as you get more accustomed.
Additionally, our 1HP Icetubs Engine™ is energy-efficient and operates almost silently, only making more noise when adjusting the temperature. Just like a refrigerator, it may become slightly louder during hotter or cooler months when it works harder to maintain the set temperature. However, this advanced technology ensures you're getting the most efficient and quiet experience possible, no matter the season.
What makes it special
- Dual temperature control: From cold recovery to warm relaxation.
- Quiet operation: Only 60 dB, for a peaceful ice bathing session.
- Energy-efficient: Just 1.35 kW/day, saving you money and the planet.
- Built for safety: Designed to be reliable, so you can focus on your therapy.
Forget about buying ice and dealing with the mess—our engine keeps your water at the right temperature effortlessly. It's compact, powerful, and built with sustainability in mind.
Ozone-powered cleanliness: Fresh water, every time
Our Icetubs Engine™ goes beyond simple temperature control to offer a revolutionary approach to water management. Equipped with advanced ozone cleaning technology, this engine helps maintain the cleanliness of your water, ensuring a fresh and hygienic experience every time you use your tub.
Ozone, a natural and powerful molecule, is instrumental in keeping your water clean. It works by breaking down organic contaminants and neutralising impurities, which significantly extends the usability of your water. This means you won't need to drain and refill your tub frequently, making the system not only more convenient but also more sustainable.
Ozone functions as a chemical-free cleaner that eliminates the need for harsh substances like chlorine. While ozone is safe for your skin and does not produce an unpleasant odor, it’s crucial to use it in appropriate amounts, as excessive concentrations can be harmful.
Why ozone matters
- Chemical-free cleaning: Pure, clean water without lingering chemicals.
- Efficient disinfection: Works in cold water, making it ideal for ice baths.
- Cost-effective: Less maintenance, more savings.
Icetubs filters™: Clean water that lasts longer
Designed to capture debris as small as 5 microns, our filters offer superior filtration compared to others on the market. This means that the water entering the engine is significantly cleaner, and the water that gets pumped back into the tub is of the highest quality.
Our filters are built to last about a month, depending on usage and environmental conditions. Proper care, such as covering the tub with the provided thermal cover after each use, can extend their lifespan. When it’s time for a replacement, you’ll appreciate how simple the process is. Replacing our filters is as easy as changing a light bulb and takes less than a minute. Unlike many competitors that require you to turn off the engine or empty the tub, our design allows you to replace the filter while the engine is running and the tub is filled with water.
It’s crucial to use our filters with the Icetubs, as they not only keep the water clean but also prevent debris and larger obstacles from entering the engine, which could potentially cause damage. Our focus on comfort and easy maintenance ensures that keeping your ice bath in top condition is as hassle-free as possible.
Why choose our filters
- Advanced filtration: Captures the smallest contaminants for cleaner water.
- Easy to replace: No need to stop the engine or empty the tub.
- Long-lasting: Up to a month or more, depending on use.
Clean water means a better experience. With Icetubs Filters™, your bath is always ready when you are.
Icetubs design: Crafted for every body and every space
At Icetubs, we believe that the benefits of cold bathing should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their preferences or physical characteristics.
Recognizing that individuals have different preferences for ice bathing—whether seated, crouched, reclined, or lying down—we offer two distinct designs: the vertical IceBarrel and the horizontal IceBath. This dual approach caters to those who prefer a more active, seated position or a relaxed, reclining experience.
We also considered the diverse needs of users regarding size. Taller individuals often find it challenging to fully submerge in standard ice baths, limiting their ability to reap the full benefits of their session. To address this, we offer XL versions of both our IceBarrel and IceBath designs, ensuring that everyone, regardless of height, can experience the advantages of cold therapy.
Additionally, we have prioritised accessibility for those with disabilities or elderly users. Our IceBarrel designs include built-in stairs for easier access, while our IceBath models are designed at a height that allows individuals in wheelchairs to enter and exit with ease.
We can proudly say we are the only brand in the market offering these inclusive design options. By focusing on varied preferences and physical needs, Icetubs stands out as the most adaptable and user-friendly choice for ice bathing.
Why our design stands out
- Personalized experience: Choose between sitting or reclining models.
- Size options: A perfect fit for every body type, ensuring full immersion.
- Optional stairs: Easy access for those who need it.
- Built to Last: Durable enough for both indoor and outdoor use.
We believe that cold therapy should be accessible to all. That’s why every Icetub is designed with you in mind—so you can focus on the benefits, not the barriers.
