It sounds like you have not done much research on this yet, but I'm sure DIY plans exist online given the popularity of cold plunges with athletes / bro science people (I don't know that there's actually much peer reviewed evidence on any benefit of this stuff).
The obvious answer would be "make a bunch of ice in the freezer" but I'm sure you could get more complicated. If you do go with a circulator, will you also be treating the water for reuse?
Edit: looking at reddit, it appears a bunch of people just turn their chest freezers into the plunge tank? Check out r/coldplunge
- fishbone 3y agoMost of the DIY stuff I have seen involves putting the water directly in the chest freezer. Would need a much bigger chest freezer to fit in and I’m not crazy about the electrocution risk. I’m currently using the make a bunch of ice approach but it is cumbersome.
- thenerdhead 3y agoYou unplug the chest before getting in. It's really not that risky.
