With a chiller it holds 45–59°F consistently, which is what we recommend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing a chiller.\u003c\/strong\u003e The MWC-1 is not tied to one chiller model — most compatible cold plunge chillers can be connected. For reference, the unit Mande pairs with the MWC-1 in Europe delivers 17,000 BTU\/h (5 kW) in moderate conditions, chills to 36°F, runs at approximately 9.5 GPM through 1.25\"–1.5\" barbed fittings, and is rated for water volumes up to about 530 gallons — comfortably more than this tub needs. That European unit is 220–240V \/ 50Hz, so \u003cstrong\u003ea U.S. chiller must be specified to U.S. electrical standards\u003c\/strong\u003e; match the performance, not the voltage. A bypass connection is recommended. Talk to us before you buy and we will confirm the pairing and the fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater care.\u003c\/strong\u003e Without filtration, change the water every 3–5 days. With filtration, every 4–8 weeks. If you run a chiller, filtration is required — without it the heat exchanger can clog and the unit can be damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFreezing weather.\u003c\/strong\u003e Drain the tub completely during any freezing period.
