Designing and Integrating a Cold Plunge into Your Outdoor Living Space
When planning your cold plunge, there are several factors to consider to ensure this feature works well with your outdoor space.
Types of Cold Plunges
Cold plunges come in two main types, each offering unique benefits depending on your space and preferences. Standalone units are prefabricated designs that can be easily placed in various locations, providing flexibility and convenience. On the other hand, built-in designs are custom-crafted to seamlessly integrate with your pool or spa area, creating a cohesive and sophisticated look that enhances your outdoor space.
Placement Options
Cold plunges can be strategically positioned to meet your needs. Many homeowners opt to place them adjacent to pools, allowing for an effortless transition between warm and cold water for a complete hydrotherapy experience. Cold plunges can also be installed indoors to create a spa-like retreat that can be enjoyed year-round, regardless of the weather.
Style Considerations
Your cold plunge should complement the design of your pool and other outdoor features. Cold plunges also work well with saunas, hot tubs and other wellness installations. If you have a hot tub, consider adding a cooling system to transform it into a dual-purpose feature. Whether you prefer modern minimalism or a natural, organic look, Watermark Pools can create a cold plunge that matches your vision.
Installing a Cold Plunge: What You Need to Know
Adding a cold plunge to your outdoor space is as intricate as installing a hot tub. Here’s what you need to know.
Materials and Customization
Cold plunges require durable materials to maintain low temperatures and withstand regular use.
Space Constraints
Cold plunges can be designed to fit even compact spaces, but careful planning is essential, especially if you’re incorporating one into an existing pool area.
Maintenance and Energy Requirements
Like a hot tub, a cold plunge requires its own cover and dedicated equipment. Proper temperature control systems are crucial, and ongoing maintenance ensures optimal performance.
DIY vs. Professional Installation
While DIY kits are available, a professional installation by Watermark Pools guarantees durability, efficiency, and a polished finish. A poorly installed cold plunge will likely not function as it should, and the last thing you want in your carefully curated outdoor living space is the eyesore of a mismatched feature.
