Introduction and Planning

Over the last couple of years, I've built two different styles of cold plunges. One like this and one like that. But the problem with cold plunges is that they're extremely expensive. Especially if you want something that looks nice and has all the filtration and the coldness you can ever imagine. Well, in today's video, we will building one ultimate perfect cold filtered beautiful cold plunger. Let's get started. What we're working with is a 150galon poly tank. Poly resin tank to be specific. I bought this at my local farming equipment store. They also sell them at your local hardware stores, Home Depot, Lowe's, the whole shebang. I've built two other cold plunges before. One, put a picture right here. This one looked awesome, but it had zero filtration and with all the weather, it started falling apart, at least the exterior siding that we [music] used. The second coal plunge I built is out of an old broken down chest freezer. It had a little bit of filtration, but it completely sucked. Well, in today's mission, we will be building the ultimate cold plunge. One that is beautiful to look at, so it's not an eyesore. One that's not too big, and one that will stand all the weather. Not to mention, it's going to be ice cold. We are predicting 38 39° F. And it's going to have the professional filtration system that's going to be handsoff for us. Let's get started. So, my previous cold plunge was a classic coffin look. It was a rectangular. It looked awesome. But when I want to try something different. So we have this radius 150galon tank. So what I want to do is follow this profile on it that kind of gives it almost like a barrel sauna kind of look. And then we're going to do vertical cleats on it. Right? So the tub is going to go inside. We're going to have a little bit of gap here. I'm going to put an apron on around. And that apron will allow for the drainage. It'll conceal the lip portion of our tank here. um and also give it a nice fitted look. As far as cover, there's a few options. We can always build one, and I I think we might, but they also for this setup, for this exact container, they actually have insulated cover. So, we'll see which one looks the coolest. I also don't want to have my chiller built into the unit. uh my previous setup did and what I've learned and I've learned a lot of lessons from the two cold plunges I've built is that in the summertime when it's like 90 95 100° outside that chiller has a hard time cooling off. So, we're…
