Plunge Evolve Has No Power or Trips the GFCI/Breaker

Evolve Standard and Pro chillers require a dedicated 20-amp circuit for reliable operation. Plug the chiller directly into the required outlet. Do not use an extension cord.

Stop immediately for a burning smell, hot or melted plug, arcing, buzzing, repeated instantaneous trips, water in an electrical compartment, or visible coolant.

If the chiller has no power

1. Unplug it and inspect only the exterior cord and plug.
2. Confirm the breaker is on and the circuit is not shared.
3. Press RESET on the GFCI.
4. Verify the outlet with a known-working small device or a licensed electrician.
5. Reconnect the chiller directly.

If the circuit trips

1. Unplug the chiller.
2. Reset the breaker and GFCI once.
3. Reconnect directly, without an extension cord.
4. If it trips again, stop and contact Support.

Do not open the electrical box, remove an energized cover, bypass the GFCI, replace an internal fuse, or repeatedly reset a tripping circuit.
