Polar Revive Chiller for Ice Bath and Cold Plunges Including All Hoses and Pumps. 1/3 HP, 2/3 HP, 1 HP Models

Very easy setup and seems well built. I can come back at a later date once I’ve used it for a few months and speak to its performance. However, it keeps tripping my breaker. We have standard 15 amp breakers at our home and according to the manual, the chiller only draws 7 amps (1hp model). Not sure what’s going on so I’ve gotta do some digging.

I bought the 2/3Hp unit for use in Texas Summer to cool my cold tub. it worked great for the first week, keeping my water cold at 50-55F. but it stopped cooling the water after a week. luckily still in my return window. If you purchase to try out, KEEP THE BOX!

I use this with a rubbermaid 150 gallon feed tub. I love in central Florida and temps are high 90s constantly. The tub is on my patio. Ran it 24/7, got it to about 50 degrees with. no insulation around it. Power bill went up about $200 that month. So I built a cabinet for it and insulated it. Now it runs about 4.5 hours each evening, from 2am-6:30 am and gets water temp down to 40-42 degrees. The key is that is you are using the chiller tub on a hot patio to insulate the tub, otherwise it will impact your power bill. One minor improvement would be to provide a larger pump, at 1/10th HP, if the chiller is on a platform higher than the pump, the pump doesn't have the power to push the water up and will not circulate. I would be interested to hear about any pump upgrades that have been successful. The chiller and pump fit into the open space, I could enclose it with air vents but would somewhat limit circulation of the air flow so I will leave it open.

Wish I read and trusted other reviews before buying this. Never chilled below about 40F. Then over a period of several weeks/months that amount has gone up into the '50s. Now it does not matter what I do, I can use cold water from the faucets with the AC set in the '60s and it will not go below in the '50s.

Great Customer Service. Very happy with the unit. I bought a 2/3 hp and use it to chill my 450 quart Grizzly cooler I use as an insulated cold plunge. Works great. I am here in Florida. Unit is outside. It easily maintains 38 degrees all summer long. Using a smart switch, I have it schedule to turn on two sessions a day, 4 hrs. each session (8hrs total). No problem running on a 10 amp rated smart switch.

I've been using it as a chiller for my evap cooler and during the summer when its about 100 degrees outside, this maintains about 65 degree water temp which helps keep my shop around 78-80 degrees.

Pump already went out so looking to have to buy a new one. They don’t list any of the parts on here so that’s why 3 stars

I did a lot of research before buying, and I’m glad I went with the 1HP unit. Living in a warm climate where outdoor temps hit the high 90s, a smaller unit just wasn’t practical. When I swap in fresh water, it usually starts around 85°F. With the 1HP chiller, it takes about 6 hours to bring that down into the mid-50s, even in those hot conditions. Once the water is cold, the tub holds around 70°F under the heat, and the chiller only needs a couple of hours to bring it back down to the mid-50s. After 6 weeks of daily use, the performance has been consistent and reliable. I’d definitely recommend going with the 1HP model if you don’t want to spend all day waiting for your water to cool.

Exactly as I'd hoped - cools 400 l cold tub perfect.

Keeps the tub cold

Works like it should keep my cold plunge at the temp I want

Like others, I tested this item with an inflatable ice bath. Tested in an insulated home, and it maintained roughly 50F. The chiller definitely circulates well, but I dont believe it can effectively keep up with the demand of lowering the temperature. After 12 hours of usage, it still only kept the bath at 50F. Lower than room temperature and certainly cooler than without the unit, but not nearly as low as other units indeed. Overall decent performance.
