Ice Barrel 500 | Full-Body Cold Plunge Barrel

Full-body cold immersion in the most accessible format available. The Ice Barrel 500 features built-in steps, an internal seat, and a spacious upright design that accommodates users up to 6’9”—all in a UV-resistant, US-made barrel with premium polyurethane foam insulation.

Cold immersion is the foundation of any recovery protocol. The Ice Barrel 500 delivers the full-body experience with a level of thoughtful design that removes every barrier to building a consistent practice.

Built with medical-grade, UV-resistant rotomolded plastic, the 500 features thick polyurethane foam insulation in both the barrel and lid to hold temperature remarkably well between sessions. The spacious upright design accommodates users up to 6’9” tall, making it one of the most accessible full-body cold plunge vessels on the market.

What sets the 500 apart from simpler barrels is the built-in step system and internal seat. Entry and exit are safe and effortless—no awkward climbing or balancing. Fill it with a standard garden hose, add ice for an immediate plunge, or pair it with the Ice Barrel Chiller for automated temperature control down to 37°F year-round.

At 106 lbs empty and roughly 57” long, it can be placed indoors or outdoors on any level surface. This is the cold plunge that bridges the gap between entry-level barrels and full chiller systems—serious enough for daily use, accessible enough for anyone starting their recovery practice.
