Setting up your Plunge (Hot/Cold)

  • Updated

 

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

Step-by-Step

STEP 1

Place the Plunge on a flat surface and make sure it can support 1,200 lbs and 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.

Not doing so will result in a failed chiller.

Screw on the "In" connection from the water pump to the "In" connector on the chiller.

STEP 3

Attach the included carbon hose filter to a hose. Run water through it into a drain until the water turns clear. Then, fill the Plunge with water.

Recommended water level:

Indoor = 4.5" from the top

Outdoor = 3" from the top

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 the main 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 the jets.

STEP 7

You’ll control the temperature 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 the 2.5 GHz Modem.

Check to make sure your light works by pushing the on/off via the silver button on the front-side of the tub.
