Manual and Setup Guide for your Plunge: Gen 1 (Hot/Cold)

The following explains how to set up the plunge standard and XL models with a heating component.

Step-by-Step

STEP 1: Location Requirements • Place the Plunge on a flat surface that can support 1,200 lbs • Keep it 5 feet from any appliances. • Place the chiller behind the tub with 12’’ between the chiller and the wall for proper air flow. • Let the chiller rest for 4 hours before turning on to allow coolant to settle. Note: Failing to do so may result in chiller malfunction.
STEP 2: Attach the "in" Connection Screw on the "In" connection from the water pump to the "In" connector on the chiller.
STEP 3: Fill the Plunge • Attach the included carbon hose filter to a hose. • Run water through it into a drain until the water turns clear. • Fill the Plunge with water. Recommended water level: Indoor = 4.5" from the top Outdoor = 3" from the top
STEP 4: Attach "Out" Connection Screw on the "Out" connection from the water filter on the "Out" connector on the chiller. DO NOT connect the "Out" connection until the Plunge is half full.
STEP 5: Plug in the Plunge • Plug the main power cord from the electrical box into a GFCI outlet (110-120v). Standard = 15 Amp breaker, Pro/XL = 20 Amp breaker. • Check for water flowing out of jets. DO NOT move onto the next step if no water is flowing from jets. Note: If you plan to use an extension cord, it needs to be 12 gauge to give the Plunge sufficient power up to 25ft. Please follow all NEC requirements.
STEP 6: Plug in the Chiller Plug the chiller into the outlet labeled 'COOLING' in the electrical box.
STEP 7: Set Temperature You’ll control the temp with the Inkbird WiFi thermostat on the back of the tub. • (PV = Present Temp, SV = Set Temp). • Press “Set” (do not hold), then use up and down arrows to set your desired temperature. • The Inkbird will power off the chiller or heater when the SV is reached. It will turn back on when the PV is 4 degrees from the SV. Note: WiFi only works with 2.5GHz modem.
STEP 8: Operate Light Turn the light on/off via the silver button on the left side of the tub.
STEP 9: Attach Phone Mount Install the phone/tablet mount by attaching the two suction cups to the Plunge and rotating each one clockwise until fully secure.
