Read First Before Setting Up the Plunge

Please read the safety precautions  and the warranty before continuing.

Download the Plunge App

Installing the app is essential for a few important reasons:

  • Remote Control: Control the temperature of the Plunge from your phone.
  • Metrics Monitoring: We can monitor metrics on your tub to proactively address any potential issues, ensuring your Plunge stays healthy and avoids disruptions.
  • Firmware Updates: Our team is dedicated to ensuring your Plunge stays current with the latest firmware. To keep your unit updated, simply stay connected to the Plunge App to receive the update notifications.
  • Filter Instructions: The app walks you through the step-by-step process for changing your filter, helping maintain your Plunge’s performance.

Water Chemistry Outline

  • We recommend showering prior to use for anyone using the Plunge. This will help maintain the chemical balance in the water.
  • Important note: keeping the Plunge All-In outside will shorten the lifespan of the chemicals due to UV rays and more organic material entering the water.
  • The Plunge All-In should not be filled with well water. Please make sure to properly strip the
  • water with an ion exchange filter before filling the Plunge if you are on well water.
  • The Plunge All-In maintenance protocol is based on cold water only. For more details please refer to this article: Caring for the Residential Plunge All-In.

Drain Information

  • Main Tub Drain: When you are facing the tub LED display screen, the main tub drain is located in the right hand vent. The primary purpose of this drain is to empty the tub.
  • Winterization Drain (Jet and Filter Housing Drain): When you are facing the tub LED display screen, the winterization drain is located in the left hand vent. The only use for this drain is to empty the jets and filter housing for storage/winterization. If used instead of the main tub drain, there will be 3-4 inches of water still left in the tub.

Important warranty information
Please note that damage caused by freezing conditions or improper water chemistry are not covered under our warranty. If the temperature in your area drops below freezing and water isn’t flowing, your plumbing system will crack and break.

Please monitor your Plunge daily when the outside temperature is close to below freezing to ensure constant flow. If the ambient temperature is below 32°F / 0°C for 12 hours, you must drain the Plunge, filter and chiller and fully winterize the Plunge.

The Plunge should Run 24/7 - Stagnant water is not sanitary for the system. Solidified bio-matter can form inside the pipes and requires a deep clean with hot water to fix. This can also appear if no sanitation is done. Please follow the maintenance protocol included in the manual.

 

Set up

Step 1: Location requirements

/!\ DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Install Plunge at least 1.5 meters (5 feet), from all electrical outlets and appliances.

  • Place the Plunge on a solid, level, waterproof surface.
  • When you place the Plunge you want to make sure there’s at least 16 inches of clearance on end with where the component parts live for ventilation. 
  • On the front side there should be at least 12 inches of space to access the drain and for ventilation. 
  • As you face the LED Display, the left side only needs 4 inches from the wall. 
  • We recommend having around 4 inches of clearance from the wall on the other end of the tub from the LED Display so you can lean your head back.

In blue is the optimal spacing for longterm maintenance and user experience.

In pink is the minimum requirement to keep your manufacturer's and extended (if applicable) warranty active. Not following these requirements will void your warranty.

Step 2: Fill The Plunge

  • Attach the included carbon hose filter to a garden hose. 
  • Run water through it into a drain until the water turns clear. 
  • Then, fill the Plunge with water.
  • While the Plunge is filling, check to make sure the filter housing screw cap is hand tightened. 
    • Press the side of the circular decorative cover to lift it off to reveal the screw cap. 
    • Unscrew the cap to check and make sure the filter is seated inside the filter housing and the O-ring is seated in the crevice of the filter housing. 
    • Screw the cap back on and hand-tighten. It should screw on smoothly with no resistance. 
    • Place the decorative cover back on.

Step 3: Plug In the Plunge

  • Once the tub is full you can plug your Plunge into an outlet with a dedicated 120V 15 amp circuit. Note: If there are other appliances on the same circuit, the Plunge may not operate. Please make sure it is plugged into a dedicated circuit.

Step 7: To Pause the Jets

For a quieter Plunge experience, you can pause the jets by pressing the pause button. It will pause for 15 minutes. Once the timer runs out, the jets will turn back on and resume circulating the water. Please make sure to never pause the tub with no water inside.
