Professional cold plunge baths

Cold plunge baths are professional cold water immersion units used for recovery in gyms, CrossFit boxes, recovery studios, physiotherapy practices, spas and hotels. The range covers portable baths, fixed all in one units and separate chillers. Light In Fitness distributes this equipment with specification advice, quotation and delivery in France, and supports operators on the technical requirements the installation brings with it.

The three product types

Portable baths are self supporting tubs that need only a level floor, a filling point and access to a drain, which makes them the entry point for a club testing demand or for a mobile setup at events. Fixed all in one units integrate the tub, the circulation, the filtration and the cooling in a single installation, and are the format for a permanent recovery area. Chillers are separate cooling units connected to a bath: they hold the water at a set temperature instead of relying on ice, which is what turns cold immersion from an improvised practice into a repeatable protocol with a controlled running cost.

How to choose

Hygiene, water treatment and running costs

Commercial use turns the water over far more often than a private installation, so filtration and water treatment are part of the specification rather than an afterthought. Plan the cleaning schedule, the treatment method and the record keeping with the purchase, because a recovery area shared by many users is subject to the same hygiene expectations as any water facility. On running costs, a chiller replaces the recurring purchase of ice and gives a predictable electricity figure instead, which is usually the decisive comparison for a club running daily sessions.

Delivery, warranty and support

Standard delivery covers France, Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg, with export priced project by project. Stocked references ship in 5 to 10 working days. Warranty runs from 2 to 5 years depending on the range. Each unit is supplied with its technical documentation, including the operating and maintenance routine, which should be kept on file by the operator.

Frequently asked questions

Portable bath or fixed installation?

A portable bath is the lower commitment option: no plumbing work, movable, and simple to trial with members before a permanent area is built. A fixed unit makes sense once cold immersion is an established part of the offer, because it removes daily handling and integrates filtration and cooling. Many operators move from one to the other.

Is a chiller necessary?

Not technically, but without one the water temperature depends on how much ice is added, which makes sessions inconsistent and the cost open ended. A chiller holds a set temperature, which is what a coach or therapist needs to run a repeatable protocol. For any facility running daily sessions it is normally the more economical route.

What space and services are needed?

Allow the unit footprint plus clear space for a user to enter and leave safely, and a non slip surround. Portable units need a level floor, a filling point and drain access; fixed units and chillers need plumbed services and a dedicated power supply in a ventilated location.
