What do I need to add to make this tub fully functional as a cold plunge?

You'll need either an all-in-one chiller unit or a combination of a stand-alone chiller, water pump, and filtration system. The tub comes with molded-in 3/4-inch NPT chiller ports, pre-pump strainer, and molded-in filter mounting inserts, so it's purpose-built to accept equipment cleanly and securely. Before purchasing a chiller, make sure to check the Equipment Housing Internal Dimensions (27" L x 22" W x 24" H) to confirm it'll fit — or reach out and we'll help you figure it out.

How well-insulated is this tub, and will it hold temperature without constantly running a chiller?

The Barton DIY Cold Tub features up to 4.5 inches of closed-cell insulation, which is serious thermal retention. Combined with the lockable lid and gasket seal, it holds cold temperatures efficiently, meaning your chiller won't have to work overtime to maintain your target temp. This is a significant upgrade over uninsulated tubs, chest freezer conversions, or inflatable ice baths that bleed cold air constantly.

Can this tub be used outdoors year-round?

Yes — it's rated for both indoor and outdoor use. The rust-resistant lid prop, durable construction, and ventilated equipment cover with drip pan are all designed to handle real-world conditions. Whether you're setting it up in a garage, on a patio, or in a dedicated wellness space, it's built to last in those environments.

Is this tub large enough for most adults, and how much water does it hold?

The internal tub dimensions are 53.25" long x 26" wide x 27.25" deep with a 150-gallon capacity, which comfortably accommodates most adults for a full cold immersion session. It's not a cramped inflatable — it's a purpose-built cold therapy tub with the room and depth to actually do the job right.

Q: What's the difference between the Barton DIY Cold Tub and the Barton Cold Plunge?

The Barton DIY Cold Tub is essentially the same commercial-grade, fully insulated tub and equipment cover as the Barton Cold Plunge — minus the chiller, water pump, and filtration system. It's designed for people who already own compatible equipment or want to source their own chiller setup. If you want a complete, ready-to-plunge system right out of the box, the full Barton Cold Plunge is the way to go.

Should be able to edit your purchase and delivery information on the site.

Good customer response when I mentioned that I submitted the wrong address for delivery, however, after I was told my address was corrected, it did not change on the site and it went to the incorrect address.
You should be able to edit your purchase and delivery information on your site.

UPDATE November 30, 2025. We have implemented an easy way for customers to edit their address for up to two hours after an order is placed. This can be done from the post purchase email you receive, the Order Confirmation page or when you login to your Order History: https://account.living.fit/orders

ORIGINAL REPLY
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We really appreciate it, and I want to clarify what happened with your address change so you know exactly where things went wrong.

When you reached out, our team let you know that we would do our best to update the address. Because this item ships directly from one of our third-party partners, we are not able to edit the order ourselves once it enters their system. In this case, the vendor shipped the package very quickly, which meant the address could not be updated in time even though we tried to intervene before it went out.

We understand how frustrating this is, and we are reviewing how we communicate these situations so expectations are clearer moving forward. We are also exploring better ways to allow address updates when possible, although this can vary based on the vendor.

If there is anything else we can do to help with this order, please let us know. We want to make it right.

The Barton DIY Cold Tub is a commercial-grade, fully insulated cold plunge tub built to support serious cold therapy without a chiller included.

Features & Benefits

4.5 inches of closed-cell insulation: Keep water cold longer and reduce how much ice or chiller power you need.
Molded-in 3/4 inch NPT chiller ports: Connect an all-in-one or stand-alone chiller to build a complete cold plunge setup.
Lockable lid with gasket and rust-resistant prop: Keep debris out and store the tub safely between cold therapy sessions.
150-gallon interior measuring 53.25 x 26 x 27.25 inches: Deliver a full-body cold plunge with room to perform a proper immersion.
Ventilated equipment cover with 27 x 22 inch drip pan: Protect and store your chiller and pump in one clean, contained space.
Indoor and outdoor safe build, made in the USA: Set up the tub in a garage, backyard, or gym and target recovery year-round.

The Cryospring Barton DIY Cold Tub is a commercial-grade rotomolded cold plunge with 4.5 inches of closed-cell insulation, molded-in 3/4-inch NPT chiller ports, a lockable lid, 150-gallon capacity (53.25 x 26 x 27.25 inches), and a ventilated equipment cover with 27 x 22-inch drip pan. Made in the Usa. Chiller not included.

• Capacity: 150 gallons
• Interior dimensions: 53.25 x 26 x 27.25 inches
• Insulation: 4.5 inches closed-cell
• Chiller ports: molded-in 3/4" NPT (2 ports)
• Lid: lockable with gasket and rust-resistant prop
• Equipment cover: ventilated with 27 x 22" drip pan
• Made in the Usa
• Chiller: NOT included

Q: What's the difference between the Barton DIY Cold Tub and the Barton Cold Plunge?
A: The Barton DIY Cold Tub is the tub only — it does not include a chiller. It's designed for those who want to pair their own chiller or use ice. The Barton Cold Plunge is available with a chiller system included. Same commercial-grade rotomolded construction.

Q: What type of chiller is compatible with the NPT ports?
A: The molded-in 3/4-inch NPT ports accept standard garden hose fittings and most commercial all-in-one cold plunge chillers via appropriate adapters. The ventilated equipment cover is sized to house a standard all-in-one chiller unit alongside the pump.

Q: Why is closed-cell insulation better for a cold plunge?
A: Closed-cell insulation doesn't absorb water — critical in a cold plunge environment where condensation is constant. Open-cell foams can become waterlogged over time, losing insulating value and potentially harboring mold. Closed-cell at 4.5 inches provides a superior, long-lasting thermal barrier.

Q: Is this suitable for outdoor year-round use?
A: Yes — the rotomolded construction and closed-cell insulation are rated for outdoor installation including UV, rain, and temperature extremes. The lockable lid with gasket provides additional weather protection.
