Can I Put the Cold Plunge Inside?

Yes, you can certainly put your Chillax cold plunge inside your home. However, there are a few important considerations to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience:

1. Floor Strength: Ensure that the floor where you plan to place the plunge is strong enough to support its weight. Remember, water is heavy (about 8.34 pounds per gallon), and when you add the weight of the plunge and a person, it can be quite substantial. Floors in modern homes are typically designed to handle this weight, but it's always good to double-check, especially in older buildings.

2. Waterproofing and Drainage: Ideally, place the plunge in an area where water spills can be easily managed. Rooms with tiled floors, like bathrooms or laundry rooms, are often suitable. If you're placing it on a carpeted or wooden floor, consider using waterproof mats or trays underneath to protect against splashes or condensation.

3. Ventilation: Good ventilation is important to manage humidity and condensation, especially in smaller or enclosed spaces. This helps prevent mold and mildew growth. If the room isn't well-ventilated, consider using a dehumidifier.

4. Electrical Safety: Make sure there's a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet nearby to plug in the plunge. This is a safety device that can help prevent electrical shock, which is especially important in wet environments.

5. Space for Use and Maintenance: Ensure there's enough room around the plunge for easy access and maintenance. You should be able to comfortably get in and out and perform any necessary cleaning or upkeep.

6. Temperature Control: If you're using the plunge in a heated area, be aware that the water might warm up more quickly than if it were outside, especially if the room is warm. This might require more frequent cooling or temperature adjustments. The chiller is 1HP which operates perfectly outdoors in places like Arizona and Florida where heat is substantial. You can expect about 3-4 hours for cooldown in a 90 gallon in 100 degree outdoor weather, and about 2-3 hours for the 60 gallon. 

By considering these factors, you can safely enjoy the benefits of your Chillax cold plunge indoors, making it a convenient and accessible part of your wellness routine.
