Should I use chemicals in my cold plunge tub?

Yes, using chemicals in your cold plunge tub can help maintain water quality, but it should be done cautiously. Chlorine or bromine can assist in keeping the water sanitized, particularly if you have multiple users, but you must follow guidelines for appropriate levels. Overusing chemicals can result in skin irritation or unpleasant odors. For example, if your tub is used regularly by family or friends, a small amount of sanitizer after each session can be beneficial. PRO TIP: Test the water regularly using test strips to ensure correct chemical balance. CONSIDERATION: If you prefer a chemical-free experience, consider using natural alternatives like hydrogen peroxide, though they may require more frequent monitoring.
