No Building Work
The tubs are free-standing, so there are no footings, trenches or permanent fittings to install. If you move house, the tub can come with you.

Compare Home Cold Plunge Tubs for Garages, Carports and Slabs
Measure the floor space first, then pick a tub that fits it: the upright Premium Pod for tight garages, a reclining Classic (140 cm) or XL Classic (160 cm) where you have a longer slab, or the Sporting Plunge if several people will use it. IceFusion is a Melbourne-based supplier of home cold plunge tubs, each delivered free across the metro area with a matched Wi-Fi chiller. Pairings range from $1,295 to $2,495, with tub length and chiller strength (half or one horsepower) driving the difference, and the cedar tub supplied with an ice-producing chiller costs $5,495.

Space-Smart Cold Water
What a Home Cold Plunge Tub Adds to Your Garage or Yard
A tub with its own chiller turns a corner of the garage or a spare patch of concrete into a recovery spot you can use every day. There is no ice to store, no permanent plumbing and no building work.
Uses Power You Already Have
Any standard 10 amp socket will do, the kind most garages and outdoor walls already have.
Control It From the Kitchen
Change the water temperature from your phone without walking out to the garage, and have it ready before you head out the back.
Hot or Cold in One Tub
Choose anywhere from 2°C to 42°C, ambient permitting, so the tub can be a cold plunge in summer and a warm soak on a winter night.
Clear Water Without the Fuss
UV light and ozone sanitise the water, and two filters (the finer rated at 20 microns) trap particles, so refills are needed far less often.
Formats for Every Floor Plan
Choose an upright pod for a narrow space, a reclining tub for a long slab or the Sporting Plunge when several people will use it.
2°CHolds temperature 24/7 – no ice

Why Choose IceFusion for a Home Cold Plunge Tub?
Across Melbourne’s north-west, from Essendon and Moonee Ponds to Strathmore, Niddrie and Keilor East, many homes have a single garage, a carport down the side or a concrete pad out the back. Those spaces suit a home cold plunge tub well, but they come with practical limits: a car to park beside it, a power point on the wrong wall and side gates that are narrower than you remember.
IceFusion helps you plan around those limits before anything is delivered. Every tub we sell is matched with an app-controlled chiller that plugs into a normal outlet, so no trade work is involved. Our team can check your measurements, suggest where the chiller and hoses should sit, and arrange free metro delivery from local stock.
A Tub for Every Footprint
The Premium Pod takes the least floor space because you sit upright. The reclining Classic and XL Classic share an 880 mm width but differ in length, at 140 cm and 160 cm, so they need a longer wall. The Sporting Plunge takes several users at once, which suits a household that trains together.
Specifications for Planning
You can choose between two chiller strengths, 1/2 HP or 1 HP, each adjustable across 2°C to 42°C depending on the surrounding temperature. Four filters come in the box, and UV and ozone sanitising keep the water clearer between changes.
Support Once It Is Set Up
Both the tub and chiller come with a 12-month warranty covering electrical parts and components. If you have questions about water care or settings later on, our Melbourne team is a phone call away during business hours.
Measure, Order, Plunge
Five Steps to a Plunge Tub in Your Garage or Backyard
Getting the measurements right is most of the job. Work through these steps and your tub will fit the space, reach the power point and be easy to drain.
-
Step 01
Measure the Floor
Measure the length and width of the space, then add room for the chiller beside the tub, the hoses and a clear path to step in and out.
-
Step 02
Find Power and Water
Locate the nearest 10 amp power point and garden tap. Plan the layout so you avoid long extension leads and can drain the water somewhere sensible.
-
Step 03
Check the Way In
Measure side gates, garage doors and any steps between the street and the spot you have chosen, so delivery goes smoothly.
-
Step 04
Pick Tub and Chiller
Match the tub to your footprint, then choose a 1/2 HP chiller or the 1 HP unit for a warm garage or frequent use.
-
Step 05
Fill, Plug In and Set
Inflate the tub, fill it, switch the chiller on and dial in a temperature from your phone. Setup usually takes about 10 minutes.

Customer Reviews of IceFusion Tub and Chiller Setups
Really great
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.
Experience
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.
Classic tub + chiller
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 the Space First
What to Consider When Fitting a Home Cold Plunge Tub
Before you order a home cold plunge tub, work out exactly where it will live. In a garage, carport or backyard, the right tub is the one that fits the floor, leaves room for the chiller and can be filled and drained without fuss.
Garage, Carport or Open Yard?
A garage keeps sun, rain and leaves off the water, while a backyard gives you more room. Wherever it goes, the chiller needs the ventilation and clearance described in its manual, so avoid boxing it into a tight corner.
Floor and Surface
A filled tub is heavy, so set it on a flat, solid surface such as a concrete slab or garage floor rather than soft lawn. A level base also keeps the water line even.
Sharing the Space With a Car
In a single garage, measure the space left once the car is parked. The upright Premium Pod has the smallest footprint, while the 160 cm XL Classic usually needs a longer wall.
Draining and Refilling
Plan where the water goes when you empty the tub, such as a garden bed or a suitable drain, and keep a hose within reach for refilling.
Chiller Size
Garages can warm up on summer afternoons. A 1 HP chiller gives extra capacity there or when several people use the tub, while a 1/2 HP unit suits many sheltered spots.
Tub, Chiller, Filters
What Your Home Cold Plunge Tub Setup Can Include
A well-equipped tub should arrive ready to plug in, with nothing extra to buy before the first session. These are the parts to look for, whichever setup you choose.
- Drop-stitch tub: choose the Pod, the Classic, the XL Classic or the Sporting Plunge, all built tough and easy to look after.
- Matched chiller: 1/2 HP or 1 HP with Wi-Fi app control.
- Two-way temperature: cold plunges or warm soaks from the same unit, from 2°C up to 42°C when the surrounding air allows.
- Four-stage filtration: UV and ozone treatment backed by two replaceable filters, with the outlet filter rated to 20 microns.
- Filters to start with: four replaceable filters in the box.
- Cedar alternative: a black-finished red cedar tub measuring 130 × 92 × 72 cm, lined in stainless steel and supplied with an insulated lid, a removable step and a dedicated ice-producing chiller.
Spare 2-metre insulated hoses ($129) are available as a backup.
North-West Melbourne Homes
Garage and Backyard Plunge Setups in Essendon, Moonee Ponds and Keilor East
The streets around Essendon, Moonee Ponds, Strathmore and Keilor East are full of Californian bungalows and post-war brick homes with single garages, side driveways and backyard slabs. Each layout raises its own questions when you add a cold plunge tub.
Single Garages
Older garages were built for one car, so floor space is tight. The upright Premium Pod fits beside a parked car more easily than a long reclining tub, and the chiller still needs breathing room.
Side Driveways and Narrow Gates
Many homes are reached down a single driveway or through a narrow side gate. Measuring that route before you order makes delivery and setup simpler.
Concrete Pads and Pergolas
A slab under a pergola gives a level base with shade overhead. It also keeps the tub close to the house, which makes winter sessions easier to start.
One Power Point, Placed Oddly
Garages often have just one power point. Planning the tub around it avoids long extension leads across the floor.
Tub Prices by Size
How Much Does a Home Cold Plunge Tub Cost in Melbourne?
Tub size is the biggest factor. Paired with a 1/2 HP chiller, the compact Premium Pod and the shared Sporting Plunge are $1,295 each, the 140 cm Classic is $1,395 and the 160 cm XL Classic is $1,695. Moving to 1 HP puts the same tubs between $2,245 and $2,495.
- Footprint: longer tubs cost more and need a longer wall or slab.
- Garage heat: warmer spaces may justify the 1 HP chiller.
- Timber: $5,495 for the cedar tub, which brings its own ice-producing chiller.
- Delivery: free to metro Melbourne addresses.

Measured your space and still unsure? Phone 03 9970 5253 or pass on the dimensions through our form.
Can a home cold plunge tub in Melbourne go in my garage?
Yes. A garage is one of the most popular spots for a home cold plunge tub in Melbourne, as it keeps sun, rain and leaves off the water. You need a flat, solid floor, a 10 amp power point nearby and room around the chiller for ventilation.
Our team can help you check whether a pod or a reclining tub suits your garage.
Which tub fits beside a parked car?
The Premium Pod usually fits best, because you sit upright and it takes the least floor space. Paired with the 1/2 HP chiller it costs $1,295.
Measure the gap once the car is parked, and allow room for the chiller, hoses and getting in and out.
Is a backyard slab or the lawn better for a plunge tub?
A concrete slab or paved area is better. A filled tub is heavy, and a firm, level base keeps it stable and the water even, whereas soft lawn can sink unevenly over time.
Shade from a pergola or verandah also helps the chiller hold temperature in summer.
What power does a home cold plunge tub need?
Just a standard 10 amp outlet, which most garages and outdoor walls already have. Avoid unsafe extension arrangements and follow the placement guidance in the manual.
How do I empty a plunge tub kept in a garage?
Plan the drain point before you set up. Many owners run the water to a garden bed or a suitable outdoor drain with a hose, so choose a spot where draining will not flood the garage floor.
With UV, ozone and filtration running, water changes can be spaced weeks apart rather than days.
Will a hot garage affect the chiller?
A garage can warm up on summer afternoons, which makes the chiller work harder. Give it the clearance and airflow its manual specifies, open the door or a vent where you can, and consider the 1 HP chiller for warm spaces or frequent use.
Which home cold plunge tub suits a taller person?
Taller people usually choose the XL Classic. At 160 cm long and 880 mm across, it lets you recline with your legs extended, and the bundle is $1,695 (1/2 HP chiller) or $2,495 (1 HP).
Can more than one person use the tub at once?
The Sporting Plunge was designed for several people to use together while keeping a compact footprint. Its bundle prices are $1,295 and $2,295 for the 1/2 HP and 1 HP chillers respectively, a good fit for households with several regular users.
Can the tub be moved later?
Yes. The drop-stitch tubs are free-standing and need no permanent plumbing, so you can drain, deflate and reposition them if you rearrange the garage or move house.
Do you deliver plunge tubs to the north-west suburbs?
Yes. Our free metro delivery covers the northern and western suburbs, Essendon and Moonee Ponds included. Most tubs are dispatched within 24 to 48 hours, and each one, along with its chiller, comes with a year of warranty cover.
