Primal Ice · Portable Barrels · Ice Barrel
Radio-frequency-welded high-density drop-stitch construction, military-grade PVC outer, insulated lid, hand pump, backpack, and portable steps. Add the XPRO chiller variant and pull water to 37°F with 24/7 filtration.
The Ice Barrel is Primal Ice's most portable cold plunge — a 40" high, 35" wide inflatable that packs down into an included backpack and inflates in under 10 minutes with the double-action hand pump. Patented drop-stitch fiberglass core sandwiched between thick PVC outer layers makes the walls 2–3× more insulated than typical portable tubs, radio-frequency welded to survive daily use for years. Add the XPRO Chiller variant to run 24/7 filtration and pull water down to 37°F; skip it if you're happy to load ice.
High-density drop-stitch fiberglass sandwiched between thick, skin-friendly PVC outer layers. Hardened walls hold cold water for hours longer than thin-walled inflatables — Primal Ice rates the insulation at 2–3× typical portable tubs.
RF welding fuses seams molecularly rather than gluing them — the failure mode that ends most inflatables at the 6–12 month mark. Every Ice Barrel is welded this way for life-long durability.
Ships with the barrel, insulated lid, backpack carry bag, double-action hand pump, and portable steps for stepping in. Full immersion in a footprint that fits a bedroom corner, a garage, or an airport carry-on.
Thick, RF-welded walls hold cold longer than thin inflatables. Less ice, longer sessions, and — if you add the XPRO chiller — less runtime to hold your target temp.
The barrel geometry gives you shoulder-deep water in a 35"-diameter footprint. Fits in a bedroom, on a balcony, or in a tight home gym without eating half the room.
Start ice-only, then add the XPRO Chiller variant later. Same barrel — no need to buy a new tub when you decide you want 24/7 cold-ready water instead of daily ice runs.
Primal Ice ships every unit with a 2-year warranty, a 30-day guarantee, U.S.-based support, and lifetime after-sales support on the barrel itself.
Drop-stitch bonds two PVC sheets with thousands of internal fiberglass threads, giving the wall a rigid, air-filled sandwich instead of a single flexible bladder. That's what lets Primal Ice keep the wall thin enough to pack down while thick enough to hold temperature for a real session.
Optional variant. The XPRO Chiller brings the water down to 37°F and holds it, with 24/7 water flow and in-built filtration keeping the barrel clear. 880W cooling capacity, mobile-app control, 14 × 11 × 13" footprint, 37 lb net weight, runs on a standard outlet. Indoor or outdoor.
The barrel itself, insulated lid, double-action hand pump, carry backpack, portable step. Add the XPRO Chiller variant for cooling, filtration hoses, and the chiller unit. No trips to the hardware store, no extras to source.
Same Ice Barrel body. Add one of three chillers to match your protocol and duty cycle.
1HP entry-tier chiller. Cools to 37°F, heats to 108°F. 880W cooling capacity, 24/7 water flow, in-built filtration with optional 20-micron add-on. Mobile-app control. Standard outlet.
Mid-tier reverse-cycle chiller. Same 37°F–108°F range, higher-throughput hardware built to hold set point through back-to-back sessions. App control with scheduling. The pick for households running multiple sessions per day.
2HP reverse-cycle flagship. Cools to 32°F (actually makes ice), heats to 113°F. Ozone sanitation + 2-step filtration. Full smartphone app with cold-morning / hot-night scheduling. Ice bath and hot tub on one system.
Match the chiller to how cold you want to go, how many people share the tub, and whether you want hot-tub capability on the same install.
No. The base Ice Barrel runs on ice you supply — appropriate for travel, occasional use, or anyone testing cold plunge before committing. The +XPRO Chiller variant is for daily use, at-home protocols, or households where nobody wants to make ice runs.
The XPRO Chiller pulls water to 37°F (ambient-dependent) with 24/7 water flow and in-built filtration. If you want colder — down to 32°F and actually making ice — the ICE Chiller upgrade sits above this tier.
Under 10 minutes with the included double-action hand pump.
Yes — the whole Ice Barrel packs into the included backpack. That's the design brief.
The Ice Barrel is a 40" tall × 35" wide barrel — vertical, shoulder-deep, single-person. The Primal Tub is a rectangular inflatable (63" L × 30" W × 27" H) built for lying down and fits 1–2 people. Same drop-stitch construction and quality; different geometry.
