Four-season plunging in Chicago
Illinois's temperate climate gives you the best of both worlds — spring and fall run near-perfect plunge temps with just a bag of ice, while summer needs a chiller and winter often runs itself. Most Chicago owners use ice October–May and switch to chiller mode June–September.
Typical ice usage: Spring/Fall: 2–3 bags/week. Summer: 6–8 or chiller. Winter: 0–1.
