Maintenance
Maintaining Your Water Quality
For a home-use we recommend replacing the water in the Odin every 2-3 months, depending on the degree of use and your own personal preferences.
For commercial use we recommend changing the water in the Odin minimum once a week (depending of the volume of people using the Ice Bath & Plunge)
For residential use you do not need to add chlorine as every Odin comes with an ozone generator. You also have an optional upgrade of UV sanitisation as well which will keep your bath cleaner for longer!
For commercial application most states require chlorine to be added to the water when you have multiple different clients. Always seek professional advice on water quality from your Local/ State city council & local pool/ spa shop.
Draining your Odin Plunge
1. ENSURE the power to the Odin is turned off prior to commencing draining.
2. Locate Drain Outlet:
- Find the drain at the bottom of The Odin Plunge, connected to an elbow pipe.
- Prepare garden hose: Grab the 18mm (3/4in) garden hose attachment for draining.
3. Attach Hose:
- Connect one end of the garden hose to the elbow pipe.
4. Position Hose Outlet:
- Place the other end of the hose in an appropriate drainage area.
5. Release Drain Seal:
- Press the plug on the elbow pipe to start draining.
6. Monitor Draining:
- Keep an eye on the process to ensure smooth drainage.
7. Wait for Completion:
- Allow the Odin to drain completely.
8. Detach Hose:
- Disconnect the garden hose once draining is done.
9. Secure Drain Components:
- Close the plug on the elbow pipe to seal the drain.
Deep Cleaning the Odin Plunge
We recommend deep cleaning The Odin Plunge every 2 - 3 months for residential customers and minimum once a month for Commercial Clients (depending of the volume of people using the Plunge)
We recommend the Wanda Battery Powered Spa Vacuum

Changing / Cleaning Your Water Filter
The Odin Plunge feature a reusable 50 micron filter, which can last 6-12 months.
(Residential)
Recommended cleaning schedule:
For everyday personal use - clean/replace filter every 3-4 weeks, depending on degree of use and your personal preferences.
(Commercial)
Recommended cleaning schedule:
For heavy/commercial use -clean/replace filter every 1-2 weeks for your client peace-of-mind.
If you are using the Odin in conjunction with a sauna or after exercise, the filter will clog up faster, as heat opens up the pores to expose the Plunge to oils and sweat. If you’re noticing a significant reduction in flow rate, that is an indicator of the filter needing to be replaced.
Replacement filters can be purchased off our shop page.
Changing the Odin Plunge Filter
Maintaining The Red Western Cedar
The cedar can be wiped down with a cloth. Please re-stain the cedar every 6-12 months to keep it looking fresh.
Maintaining Steel Band tension
The Odin Plunge models require the Steel Bands to be checked and tightened every 1 - 2 months to ensure it remains firm and keeps the wooden staves in place.
Tools required:
17mm open-ended spanner.
Instructions:
- Locate the nut at one end of the steel band.
- Using the spanner, turn to the right until firm.
Please Note: Do not over tighten.
Maintaining The Stainless Steel
Please use either a stainless steel cleaner/methylated spirits/WD40 with a cloth to wipe down (please do after each time the tub is drained to ensure it is clean)
Troubleshooting
Odin Plunge Chiller Error Codes
My Water Is Not Cooling/ Temperature Issues: The Odin Plunge
Please be advised that your Odin Plunge is weather resistant, not weatherproof, due to the electronics in the chiller as well as the Red Western Cedar staves and MUST be undercover and in shade if outdoors or if indoors it’s in a well-ventilated space away from Saunas or Steam Rooms. Ensuring that the Odin is undercover, away from direct sunlight and not kept in warmer climates exceeding 107°F is an important part of maximizing the life of the Odin Plunge.
If your Odin Plunge is being located indoors and the ambient temperature exceeds 107°F or if located outdoors in direct sunlight, the cooling performance will be impacted by 50% (it will be 50% less efficient). This can cause issues on cooling down your Odin Plunge. In higher temperatures, the Odin has to cool more frequently than when in cooler rooms or undercover.
Ambient temperature plays an important role in scenarios such as:
- The functionality of the Chiller and its ability to reach set temperatures.
- Ensuring the Chiller is not overheating causing the Odin Plunge to not cool.
My Odin Plunge has no power:
- Unplug your Odin Plunge from the outlet and plug it into a separate outlet to check if there is still no power.
- Please check there is nothing else in your house causing an electrical trip as this may be an internal electrical issue.
- Please check there is no water leaking onto any of the electrical components in the Chiller unit.
Is The Odin Plunge leaking Or Is It Condensation?
How to troubleshoot leaking Odin Plunge connections.
Condensation occurs when water vapour in the air comes into contact with a surface that has a lower temperature than “the dew point” of the surrounding air.
To determine if The Odin Plunge may be creating condensation, please see factors below that may create condensation to form on some of the components of The Odin Plunge.
If The Odin Plunge is in direct sunlight, outside in high temperatures or high humidity, inside in a room with minimum air flow, near saunas or steam rooms these are all factors which cause condensation.
On the Odin Plunge you may find condensation in two areas:
1. The chiller in the areas pictured below
2. The bath waste (pictured below)
If you are still unsure whether or not your Odin has condensation or if it is leaking please turn off your Odin for a minimum of 24 hours with the insulation lid off and allow it to get down to room temperature 75°F. This will help determine whether or not it was the condensation creating water to drip or if there may be a leak.
Issues With My Filter/ Dirty Water
The Odin Plunge:
Please refer to our Maintenance Tab to ensure you are continuously maintaining the water quality and the cleanliness of The Odin Plunge and its filters.
- Please ensure that you or your customers are showering prior to entering the Odin Plunge as sweat, grime, and sand can affect the filtration and the quality of the water.
- Please do not use Magnesium, Epsom Salts, or any other similar products as this can affect the Filter.
- For Commercial customers, we do recommend the use of Chlorine or alternatively Hydrogen Peroxide.
** Please consult directly with your local city/state council and your local pool/spa with water sampling for testing.**
