Introduction:
Cold plunges have been used for centuries as a way to invigorate the body and promote overall well-being. At Aquavoss, we have taken this ancient practice and combined it with modern science to create an exceptional cold plunge experience. In this article, we will delve into the science behind cold plunges, exploring the physiological and psychological effects they have on the body. Join us as we unveil the secrets behind Aquavoss and the remarkable benefits that await you.
When you immerse your body in cold water, a fascinating physiological response occurs. The cold causes blood vessels to constrict, diverting blood flow away from the extremities and toward vital organs. This process, known as vasoconstriction, stimulates circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients to the core of your body. As you exit the cold plunge, blood vessels dilate, resulting in increased blood flow and enhanced recovery for fatigued muscles.
Cold plunges have a remarkable impact on the release of endorphins, our body’s natural mood-enhancing chemicals. The initial shock of cold water triggers the brain to produce and release endorphins, leading to a sense of euphoria and an uplifted mood. This phenomenon not only provides an immediate boost to your mental state but can also have long-term effects on managing stress, anxiety, and depression.
Cold plunges offer an incredible opportunity to strengthen your immune system. The exposure to cold water stimulates the production of white blood cells, which play a vital role in fighting off infections and diseases. By regularly engaging in cold plunges, you can strengthen your body’s defense mechanisms and enhance your resilience against common illnesses, ultimately supporting overall health and well-being.
Stress has become a pervasive part of our modern lives, but cold plunges offer a natural and effective way to combat its effects. The cold water triggers the activation of the sympathetic nervous system, also known as the “fight or flight” response. As your body adapts to the cold, it learns to regulate stress responses more efficiently. Over time, this can lead to reduced levels of stress, improved sleep quality, and an overall sense of calm and relaxation.
Aquavoss takes cold plunges to the next level with the incorporation of contrast therapy. By alternating between hot and cold water immersion, you can amplify the benefits of both temperature extremes. The contrast between hot and cold stimulates blood circulation, reduces inflammation, and enhances recovery. This dynamic therapy is a game-changer, offering a comprehensive approach to wellness and rejuvenation.
Conclusion:
The science behind cold plunges is as fascinating as the experience itself. With Aquavoss, we have harnessed this knowledge to create a cold plunge experience that goes beyond the ordinary, offering a multitude of benefits for your body and mind. From improved circulation and muscle recovery to mood enhancement and stress reduction, Aquavoss unveils the secrets of cold plunges and invites you to embark on a transformative wellness journey. Embrace the science, unlock the benefits, and immerse yourself in the extraordinary world of Aquavoss.

The best decision is one that will enhance your overall experience of the Model 2, no matter where you decide to place it.
Maintaining pristine water quality is essential for the safety, comfort, and longevity of your cold plunge experience. Just as you invested in the design and construction of your cold plunge, it’s equally important that you invest in its chemical maintenance.
This article outlines how to resolve an airlock issue in your hot tub. It details two ways to identify an airlock and provides a step-by-step guide to fixing the problem.
Most of the cold plunge system is installed prior to delivery (the piping, the circulation pump, the ozone, the drains, the filter, etc.) and ready to go upon delivery. The chiller, however, was disconnected from the system before it was shipped out to you. Here is the reasoning … the chiller has refrigerant inside of it. The chiller cannot be pre-installed as the refrigerant would spill and in turn cause long-term damage to the unit. Therefore, we securely packaged the chiller inside of the cold plunge tank so that the refrigerant does not spill during the shipping process. In this blog, we are going to walk you through how to connect the chiller back into the system so that your cold plunge side is operational (this does not require any particular expertise). Please refer to the video below as well as the following instructions for guidance on how to install the Aquavoss Model 2 chiller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BaMeJs13Nk&t=128s 1. Remove the chiller from the cold plunge tank The chiller was strapped securely inside of the cold plunge tank. As you were unboxing the product, you should have seen signage and warning labels indicating where the chiller is and that it must be removed prior to laying the Model 2 horizontally. Remove the chiller from the cold plunge tank – make sure that the chiller is always upside right as you want to ensure that refrigerant never spills. 2. Remove the access cabinet The technology for both the cold plunge and the hot tub are inside the “access cabinet”. The access cabinet can be identified in three ways: a. The access cabinet is on the same side as the thicker part of the acrylic shell. b. The access cabinet has the larger vent on it as well. c. There is a black handle in the middle of the side panel (not featured in image). Remove the two black corner pieces by gently pulling them away from the unit. Once you remove the black corner pieces, there will be four screws exposed on each corner of the cabinet as shown in the image below. Remove the screws using the Allen wrench that was provided to you in the welcome package. After you have removed the screws, then pull using the black handle at the base of the panel (not shown in image). The panel is also magnetic so give it a good tug to remove it. IMPORTANT: The panel was designed to be very easy to access. Once you remove the screws for the first time, you do not need to re-insert them when you close the panel. The panel and corner pieces are magnetic – screws are not needed to keep them in position (therefore making it very easy to access). Keep the screws in case you ever want them for the future. 3. Unbox the chiller (keep it right side up to avoid spilling the refrigerant!) 4. Place the chiller onto the stainless steel frame inside of the access cabinet 5. Use the Allen wrench and the provided hexagonal headless screws to secure the chiller to the Model 2 frame The hinge is already on the stainless steel frame. There are four hinges (one on each corner of the chiller). Secure the chiller to all four hinges using the Allen wrench and provided screws. 6. Connect the chiller to the cold plunge control panel The cold plunge control panel is already pre-installed to the side panel. The control panel has three cords hanging from it – there are also three cords grouped together that are connected to the chiller. These three connections need to be made as shown in the picture below. Ensure that these are all plugged in securely as anything that is loose could lead to a problem with the proper functionality of the chiller and the control panel. 7. Connect the chiller to the circulation pump Behind the chiller, there is a small black cylindrical circulation pump as shown in the image below. You will notice a free-hanging cord next to the circulation pump with a female connector. Plug this female connector into the corresponding male cord that is connected to the chiller. This connection powers the circulation pump, the device that will circulate water in and out of the cold plunge tank. 8. Connect the chiller to the Ozone cleaning system The Ozone can be found on the underside of the Acrylic shell. You will find there a box labeled “Ozone” with a female electrical cord hanging from it. Plug that electrical connection to the corresponding cord on the chiller. 9. Install the cold plunge filter Included in your welcome package are two filters: one for the hot tub side and one for the cold plunge side. The smaller filter is for the cold plunge. You will find the filter house behind the chiller (next to the circulation pump). Remove the filter house cap by twisting counter clockwise. Use the filter wrench (if needed) to assist in removing the filter house cap. Center the filter onto the filter house base. Place the filter house cap on top of the filter house base twist clockwise to reattach the entire filter house. 10. Feed the 110v male electrical plug from the chiller and out the side panel Locate the cold plunge electrical access point and remove the cap from the hole. Run the male electrical cord (connected to the chiller) out through the hole. Place the cap back on top to cover the remainder of the hole. Note: Depending on the orientation of your house, it may make sense instead to run the extension cord into the cabinet. This is recommended for outdoor set-ups to prevent any rain damage to the electrical cords. Important: Do not plug in the electrical cord until the cold plunge tank has been filled with water. 11. Fill the cold plunge with water You’re almost there! Take your closest garden hose and start filling the cold plunge tank with water. It’s recommended to fill the
The hot tub runs on a 220v electrical connection and you will need a licensed electrician to properly install the Aquavoss Model 2.
The Model 2 is an expensive purchase that demands careful preparation. We ship your order exclusively with our trusted carrier partners. The hot tub is very securely packaged in an enclosed wooden crate – this ensures that it is delivered to you safely. Our trusted freight carriers will deliver the Model 2 curbside (i.e. your driveway). From a liability perspective, they unfortunately are not able to place the unit in your backyard.
