Inergize Cold Plunge Elite

Inergize's pitch is water quality. The Elite chiller runs a strainer, a 20-micron pleated filter, ozone sanitation rated at 400 mg/hr, and an air intake filter that protects the compressor - a four-stage stack the brand claims most portable competitors cannot match. Flow is listed at 348 gallons per hour, which Inergize says turns the tub water over three times hourly, and the company states most users change water only every 3-6 months. The 0.8 HP unit cools room-temperature water to 37 F in roughly 3 hours, heats to 104 F for hot soaks, and runs at about 65 dB while actively cooling. The tub itself is 30 inches deep with a 45" x 21.5" interior, fits users to 6'5" and 300 lbs, and uses 4-inch drop-stitch walls with a code-locking insulated lid.

Setup is about 15 minutes on a standard 120V/15A outlet drawing 890W under load, and the deflated tub packs to roughly 25 lbs in an included travel backpack. The published spec sheet does not state the tub's water volume outright - the figure here is derived from the stated flow and turnover rate - and the chiller's own weight is not listed. The 1-year warranty on tub, chiller, and electronics is serviceable, with a San Diego support team and a Los Angeles repair center, but buyers wanting multi-year coverage will need the optional extended plan.
