Cold Water on 40°C Days

Made for Four Seasons in One Day
A plunge bath with its own chiller removes the two biggest hassles of cold-water immersion in Melbourne: warm water in summer and an uninviting setup in winter. Here is what owning one makes easier.
When a hot northerly blows through, ice melts fast and tap water runs warm. The chiller keeps cooling the bath, so your plunge stays cold when you want it most.
The same chiller heats as well as cools, up to 42°C, so the bath can double as a warm soak on a chilly July evening, ambient temperature permitting.
Wi-Fi app control lets you check and adjust the water from anywhere with internet access, so the bath is ready by the time you walk in the door.
Water stays clean longer thanks to four filtration stages: UV light, ozone, an inlet screen and a 20-micron outlet filter.
Choose upright immersion in the Premium Pod, a 140 cm oval Classic, the 160 cm XL Classic or the Sporting Plunge designed for several users at once.
Plug the chiller into any 10 amp socket and follow the printed or video guide; there is no renovation needed before your first cold soak.
“Having an on demand cold plunge after a game is essential for my muscle recovery. It is a crucial part of my routine.”

Local Stock and Advice
Melbourne weather rarely sits still. A run of hot northerly days can push the mercury past 40°C and leave tap water far too warm for a plunge, then a cold change arrives and winter mornings drop into single figures. Without a chiller, your water temperature simply follows the weather, which makes it hard to repeat the same session from one week to the next.
IceFusion takes the weather out of the equation. Your bath comes matched to a chiller that can hold anywhere from 2°C to 42°C (the air temperature sets the limits), and since we work out of Melbourne, our sizing and placement tips come from seeing local terraces, townhouses and backyards first-hand.
Essendon footballer Nate Caddy describes an on-demand cold plunge as an essential part of his routine after a game. Our baths bring that same on-demand access to homes, garages and club rooms.
Free metro delivery covers the CBD and inner north, the northern, eastern and western suburbs, the south east and bayside. Each bath is designed for one-person installation in around 10 minutes, using a standard 10 amp power point.
After delivery you are covered by a 12-month warranty on electrical parts and components, and we are a phone call away for filter swaps, water treatment and app settings.
From Order to First Plunge
Getting a chilled plunge bath running takes a few simple decisions and very little time. Here is how the process usually works.
Decide between an upright pod and a horizontal tub based on your height, how you like to sit in the water and the space you have, whether that is a courtyard, deck or garage.
Go with the 1/2 HP or 1 HP chiller. Our team can help you weigh up bath size, how exposed the spot is to summer sun and how often you plan to plunge.
Make sure the area is level, close to a 10 amp power point and easy to drain, then measure gates, side paths and doorways for delivery.
Fill the bath with a hose, connect the chiller and choose your temperature in the app. Give the water time to reach your setting before the first session.
Keep the bath clean, check the water regularly and swap filters as the instructions recommend. The UV and ozone system helps between changes.
Real Reviews From Plunge Bath Owners
Absolutely loving the ice bath. I've used it both hot and cold and it works great either way (I got the 1/2 hp unit, and I find it's enough to keep my bath shockingly cold 24/7). Scott was really communicative during the delivery and set up process. … Highly recommend.
Great product and great customer service. Order processed very quick and arrived before I knew it. Scott was great, very prompt on any enquiries that I had. Nothing but good things to say. Highly recommend this product and company.
I recently purchased an ice bath and chiller from Ice Fusion, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! Scott, the owner, made the entire process so easy and seamless. … Highly recommend Scott and Ice Fusion if you're looking for top-quality products and excellent customer service!
Plan Before You Plunge
A few practical checks will help you pick a bath that suits your property and copes with Melbourne's climate, from scorching summer afternoons to damp, chilly winters.
A bath on an open deck takes the full force of summer sun and winter wind, while one in a garage or under a verandah is better protected. Sheltered spots make the chiller's job easier and sessions more comfortable year-round.
Measure the space, then add room to step in and out, plus clearance for the chiller, hoses and airflow. Inner-city courtyards often suit the compact Premium Pod, while larger backyards can fit the 160 cm XL Classic.
Terrace houses and townhouses often have narrow side paths or stairs. Measure every gate, hallway and doorway along the delivery route before you order.
A bath in full sun on a 40°C day asks more of its chiller than one in a shaded garage. Tell us about your location and we will help you decide between the 1/2 HP and 1 HP options.
Plan for regular cleaning, water checks and filter changes. Replacement filters and a non-chlorine water treatment are available when you need them.
Your Local Setup, Sorted
Whether your bath is headed for a Fitzroy courtyard or a garage in the outer east, a complete setup should include everything needed to hold a steady temperature all year. Here is what to expect.
Four Seasons, One Water Temperature
Melbourne is famous for changing its mind, and an unchilled plunge bath changes right along with it. These local conditions are why a chiller makes such a difference.
When hot winds from the north push temperatures past 40°C, water in an outdoor bath warms quickly and bagged ice melts fast. A chiller keeps working through the heat to hold your setting.
A cool change can drop the air temperature sharply within hours. Without temperature control, the bath that felt mild yesterday can be far colder today, which makes a consistent session hard to plan.
From June to August, chilly mornings and evenings make an outdoor plunge harder to face. Because our chillers heat as well as cool, you can choose a gentler temperature or enjoy a warm soak, ambient temperature permitting.
A garage or verandah can soften these extremes. Just leave the chiller enough clearance and airflow.
What to Budget Locally
For a Melbourne delivery, budget $1,295 for the Premium Pod with a 1/2 HP chiller, up to $2,495 for the XL Classic matched with a 1 HP chiller. For a timber look, the Canadian red cedar tub with its ice-producing chiller is $5,495, and metro delivery is free. Your price depends on:

A cold plunge bath with a chiller suits Melbourne's changeable weather well. Instead of water that is warm one week and icy the next, the chiller holds the temperature you choose.
That consistency makes your sessions much easier to repeat and compare over time.
On very hot days the chiller has to work harder, and actual performance depends on the model, bath volume, placement and ambient temperature. Shade, a cover between sessions and the right chiller size all help it hold your setting.
If your bath will face the afternoon sun, ask us whether the 1 HP chiller is the better fit for your spot.
Yes. Yes, it works both ways: the chiller can warm the bath as well as chill it, anywhere from 2°C to 42°C depending on the surrounding air. On a cold winter evening you can set a gentler temperature or switch to a warm soak.
Contrast routines are easy too, since you only need to change the setting in the app.
Yes. We deliver free across metro Melbourne, covering the CBD plus the inner north, northern, eastern and western suburbs, the south east and Bayside.
Additional charges apply for regional Victoria and the rest of Australia, and we can confirm the cost for your address before you order.
The Premium Pod is our most compact chilled option and often suits courtyards and small outdoor areas, thanks to its upright design. Measure the space and allow room for entry, the chiller and hoses.
For balconies, check weight limits and any body corporate rules first, as a filled bath is very heavy.
Both can work. Garages work well because they keep the bath out of hot afternoon sun and cold southerlies; just leave the chiller the breathing room its manual specifies.
Outdoors, look for shade, a level base, a nearby 10 amp power point and somewhere for water to drain.
Most owners set it up on their own in roughly 10 minutes using the included printed and video steps. After filling, the chiller needs time to bring the water to your setting.
That cooling time varies with the season, because Melbourne tap water is much warmer in February than in July.
The 1/2 HP chiller suits many standard setups, while the 1 HP chiller adds cooling power for larger baths, sunny positions or frequent use. Both offer Wi-Fi control, heating and cooling, and four filters.
Choosing the 1 HP chiller lifts the bundle price by roughly $800 to $1,000.
Budget between $1,295 and $2,495 for a cold plunge bath with a chiller, with the exact figure set by the bath size and whether you pick the 1/2 HP or 1 HP unit. Prefer timber? The Canadian red cedar tub, which comes with an ice-producing chiller, is $5,495.
Metro delivery is free, so there is no extra delivery charge within the listed Melbourne areas.
Yes. You can reach our Melbourne office on 03 9970 5253, Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm AEST. You can also send an enquiry any time.
Every product is backed by a 12-month electrical and component warranty, so you have support after delivery too.
