Muke Intelligent Technology (Shandong) Co., Ltd. manufactures a range of Ice Bath Machines designed for cold water immersion therapy. These units are available in 0.3 HP, 0.5 HP, and 1 HP models to accommodate varying water volumes and usage environments, catering to needs ranging from personal home use to professional sports facilities.
The ice bath chillers utilize a sealed refrigeration circuit to cool and maintain the water at a target temperature (typically between 5°C and 15°C, depending on user preference). An integrated circulation pump and water filter help maintain consistent water quality over time, reducing the need for frequent draining and refilling. Users can set and monitor the temperature via a control panel, while the unit automatically regulates compressor operation to maintain the desired temperature level.
0.3 HP: Suitable for 300‑litre tubs, home bathrooms, apartments, and portable setups.
0.5 HP: Covers 600‑litre volumes, commonly used in personal training studios and small clinics.
1 HP: Designed for 1,200‑litre volumes and frequent daily use in commercial gyms or team recovery rooms.
Ice bath chillers are often installed alongside other recovery equipment such as mild hyperbaric oxygen chambers, electric cryotherapy chambers, and far‑infrared sauna rooms. These products can be combined into sequenced protocols — for example, alternating cold immersion with heat therapy or pressurized oxygen sessions to support post‑exercise recovery.
How is a chiller different from using bagged ice?
A dedicated chiller maintains a stable temperature without manual intervention. It removes the ongoing cost and effort of purchasing, hauling, and dumping bagged ice. The water stays clean for longer through continuous filtration, and the unit cycles automatically to hold the set temperature.
Which model should I choose?
The choice depends on tub volume and expected daily usage. For a single user with a small tub, 0.3 HP is adequate. For a clinic or multiple users per day, 0.5 HP or 1 HP provides faster recovery between sessions and greater cooling capacity.
