Nordik Recovery Standard 1 HP Chiller^TM

The Standard Chiller is a simple, residential-grade unit. It cools water down to about 3 °C, uses analog controls, and is plug-and-play. Because it does not include built-in filtration, you’ll likely change the water more often to keep things fresh.

The Ultimate Pro Chiller is our next-generation, industrial-grade option. It adds Wi-Fi app control and scheduling, a stronger 120 W pump for steady circulation, and a professional three-stage filtration system that combines a 20-micron filter, a large-particle prefilter, and ozone. The filtration housing is 10 × 4.5 in, giving roughly 3× the capacity for clearer water and better protection of the internals. The chassis carries UL and CSA certifications, uses IPX5 water-jet resistance, and connects with leak-proof camlock fittings, so you can use it confidently indoors or outdoors with a simple once-a-month care routine.

If you want the easiest day-to-day experience with cleaner water and stronger, more consistent cooling, choose the Ultimate Pro. If you prefer a basic setup and don’t mind more frequent water changes, the Standard is a good choice.

Yes, the tub can live outdoors year-round. When temperatures drop below 0 °C, you need to disconnect and store your chiller indoors and switch to our optional plug-in water-heater accessory. It keeps the water safely above freezing through Canadian winters, even in extreme cold (-40C). Water chillers are not designed to operate or heat in any serious sub-zero ambient conditions.

Both of our chillers can cool water between 3° C and 20° C.

Both models can live outdoors, but protection levels differ. The Ultimate Pro Chiller is IPX5 (resistant to water jets), while the Standard Chiller is IPX4 (resistant to splashes and light rain).

We recommend pro-actively shielding your chiller from direct rain fall, dust and debris if you want to extend its lifespan. You should always maintain adequate air flow around it.

Ultimate Pro Chiller: Our simple once-a-month protocol means you only need to change your water and your filter once a month if you use them in conjunction with our suite of affordable water treatment products.

For the standard chiller, you should change you filter bi-weekly and your water at least once a month if you use them in conjunction with our suite of affordable watet treatment products.

Ultimate Pro: Our filter housing is now 3 times bigger, allowing you to go through an entire month with a single filter. Regularly changing the filter helps maintain water quality by removing impurities and ensuring the system functions optimally and is also required to maintain your warranty.

Standard: You should change your filter twice per month.

After the bath is filled with water and the chiller is turned on, it takes approximately 3.5 hours for the water temperature to reach 3° C for our newest ultimate pro model, and 5h for the standard chiller.

We have many years of experience creating products out of PVC materials and have built great relationships with our manufacturers. Our ice baths are made from the same material as our existing paddle board brand, Maddle, which allows us to test and perfect our designs at a lower price for you, the customer. Our direct and exclusive relationship with our manufacturer empowers us to meticulously choose every element that goes into our boards, and now our baths! This level of control ensures that our products meet the highest standards of quality and performance.

Are Nordik Recovery products CSA approved?

Reduced Muscle Soreness: The study found that participants who engaged in post-exercise ice bath immersion reported significantly lower levels of muscle soreness compared to the control group, suggesting that cold exposure may contribute to faster recovery.

Improved Muscle Function: Ice bath participants exhibited enhanced muscle function in subsequent exercise sessions, indicating that regular cold exposure may have positive effects on muscular performance and recovery.

Inflammation Modulation: Analysis of inflammatory markers showed a decrease in post-exercise inflammation in the ice bath group, suggesting a potential role of cold therapy in modulating the inflammatory response associated with intense physical activity.

Here are a few key points that set our company apart:
