Know What You're Buying
Full specifications, what's in the box, and everything you need to plan your install.
The complete setup: a 100 gallon insulated tub and the 7,500 BTU Cold Therapy Chiller, bought together and ready to run.
Penguin Chillers has been building water chilling equipment in Knoxville, Tennessee since long before cold plunging went mainstream. This package pairs their Cold Therapy Chiller with an insulated tub sized for it — the insulation cuts heat gain, which means less chiller runtime, colder water and a lower power bill than the same setup in a bare tub.
Warranty
1 year limited manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal residential use. Claims are handled directly by Penguin Chillers: (865) 214-6509 or support@penguinchillers.com.
Not covered: normal wear and tear, damage caused by freezing, improper installation, running the unit without a filter or with a filter finer than 50 microns, and any failure to follow the manufacturer's installation, use or care instructions.
Delivery
- Ships direct from Penguin Chillers in Knoxville, Tennessee, with a 5–7 business day lead time before it leaves the factory.
- The tub and chiller may arrive separately. At 90 lb for the tub and 49 lb for the chiller, neither needs special unloading equipment.
- Inspect before you sign. If the packaging looks damaged you can still accept it — photograph it, note the damage on the delivery receipt, and contact us right away.
Before you order — installation limits
- The pump is not self-priming. The chiller has to sit level with or below the bottom of the tub so it gravity primes — never elevate it above the tub.
- Place it within about 3 ft of the tub drain wherever possible.
- Run the pump continuously and keep the filter clean. Timers are not recommended — the start-stop cycling wears the system.
- Needs a standard 110–120V outlet. Rated for outdoor use above 32°F — below freezing, disconnect and drain completely.
- Set the tub on a level, solid surface rated for roughly 925 lb once filled.
Returns: This item can be returned within 21 days of delivery with prior authorization. A 20% restocking fee applies and return shipping is the customer's responsibility.
