FAQ
We recommend adding 15-40lbs (7-18kg) of ice to the Soak Pod per session depending on the initial water temperature. The amount of ice needed highly depends on your tap water temperature, the climate you live in, and how cold you desire it to be. If you live in colder climates, adding ice may not even be needed. Since the pod is insulated it will keep the water cold for longer, and you may therefore not have to add as much ice after the first time.

We recommend starting out with your ice bath tub temperature at around 59° Fahrenheit (15°C) if it's your first time, and then slowly lowering the temperature and duration for each session. That way your body will get acclimated to the cold.
To get the health benefits, you'll need to stay in cold water below 59º fahrenheit (15°C) for three to eight minutes.Cold water therapy works best with the right combination of time and temperature. Each individual is different and some people can tolerate lower temperatures.
The SoakPod comes with a tap at the bottom for draining. To drain it, connect a standard garden hose with a 1/2 inch male thread-to-hose adapter (from your local home supply store). You can also simply open the tap without a hose attached depending on where the pod is set up.
Yes. The SoakPod includes a waterproof cover to keep the water clean.
To keep the water clean for long periods of time, we recommend adding salt to the water. Simply buy raw cheap salt and add around 1 pound (0.5kg) to a full pod. You can keep the water in the pod for 2-4 weeks when using salt. With no use of salt to disinfect we recommend changing the water every 3-5 sessions.
Yes! We engineered the pod to be weather and UV resistant, so you can set it up Inside or outside, even in temperatures below freezing. The insulation layer makes the water turn to ice a lot slower, but we still recommend to stir the water at least once a day to keep the water from freezing completely solid.
