Description
Ice Barrel 500 – Large Insulated Cold Plunge Tub
Upgrade your cold therapy routine with the Ice Barrel 500, the most spacious, fully insulated cold plunge available. It’s engineered for maximum immersion comfort, simple access, and extended temperature control—ideal for athletes, wellness devotees, and multiple-user environments.
Why the Ice Barrel 500 Stands Out
-
Best-In-Class Insulation: Thick polyurethane foam throughout the barrel and lid keeps your water colder longer—even in warm climates.
-
Built-In Steps & Internal Seat: Entry and exit are effortless thanks to integrated steps; the seating position allows deep, upright immersion.
-
Generous Capacity: Fits most users up to 7’ tall and holds approximately 94 gallons (356 L).
-
Chiller Compatible: Quick-connect ¾″ NPT ports support future chiller installation without modification.
-
Durable & Lightweight: At 104 lbs empty and made from recycled materials in the USA, it's built to last.

Cold Therapy Overview: Why It Works
Cold bathing—immersion in 40–60°F water for 3–5 minutes—supports:
-
Reduced inflammation and muscle soreness
-
Boosted circulation and lymphatic drainage
-
Elevated mood and mental clarity via dopamine release

Enhanced immune resilience and stress recovery
Start with shorter exposure, and build up to deeper, longer sessions as your tolerance increases. Learn more in our [Cold Plunge Guide].
