Ordered a new pump and pvc connections to replace my 2nd plunge pump. Sidebar - plunge no longer supports their gen 1 stuff. Great thanks plunge. If you’re here b/c of that this is the set up you need. Easy order process, with pvc parts and adapters. (Watch the YouTube video- it’s easy.)
Thanks for this design worked perfectly for the 150 gallon Rubbermaid stock tank.
Very happy with this build so far. Joe really put together a great set of plans and instructional videos to make the build so smooth.
The product is solid, the price is high, but the product support makes up for the premium. DIYColdplunge is a consumer friendly business.
Purchased the Gen 1 Plunge pump replacement kit and couldn’t be happier with the quality and price compared to the Plunge company.
I ordered a cheaper one on Amazon - it was crap, didn't even fit well, lightweight and no insulation, returned it and got this one from Joe. Fits perfectly, easy to screw in the straps and works great. Keeps everything cold.
Great build. Easy to follow and only needed a couple minor adjustments. I needed to cut out small portions of the top on the longer beams to make room for the stock tank to slide in. This is just the framing of the box itself, so you’ll need to figure out the siding/insulation yourself, but was easy enough with some basic know how. Fun to build, solid plans.
Im so happy i came across this website. It has helped me and my team complete our DIY cold plunge for our members!
I got the plumbing package from DIY Cold Plunge and it has been fantastic. I got everything plumbed up, no problems, and Joe was really helpful in answering questions along the way. I got it done in the space I wanted it to be in, and I'm sure I saved a ton of money along the way. Thanks, Joe!
Makes the connection to chiller so easy and saved me so much time. Quick shipping and awesome customer service as always.
Instructions included were super easy to follow and really informative. This DIY but the results are professional...at a small fraction of the cost! Love everything Joe (and family) has done and is doing!
This worked perfectly and was exactly what I was looking for for my sauna vapor barrier. It installed easily and I was surprised at how quickly it arrived. Definitely recommend DIY for any needs and if you’re looking for sauna vapor barrier, this is the one you want
Works great! Insulating the sides and bottom of my cold plunge greatly reduced the chiller run time. Also now the sides of my ice bath no longer condensate. It was a bit messy, I went through more foam spray than I estimated. I also painted the foam spray black after it dried, and it looks alright.
Great products! Great service! Thank you!
This worked great for my gen 1 plunge.
Perfect fit for the plunge tub. As a tradesman i was skeptical but it worked great
Works great! Goes well with 1/2 chiller.
OnceI figured out the venturi tube operated best when it was at or above the water level, this generator worked fantastic. Cleared up slightly 100gal of cloudy water within 6-7 days of using 1-2 hrs/day and has kept it clean for following 2weeks and still going.The tubing doesn't seem like it will last long term but not going to gripe too much about that.
Totally worth it! It was cheaper than the replacement pump Plunge wanted to sell me, and with the installation video, the process was pretty straightforward. I knew absolutely nothing about cold plunges and panicked when my pump died, but this kit made the replacement much easier than I expected.
The Danner 1200 feels like a quality piece of equipment. After doing some research, I found out Danner has been around for nearly 90 years, which gave me a lot more confidence in the product. The pump is solid, well-built, and noticeably heavier than the alternatives I looked at.
If your Gen 1 Plunge pump dies, I’d definitely recommend this kit. It includes just about everything you need and takes a lot of the guesswork out of the repair. So far, I’m very happy with it.
