BlueCube Wellness LLC of Redmond, Oregon, founded in 2019, builds cold plunge tubs from a 33-inch upright aluminum tub to a 72-inch stainless sit-in tub.

  • It sells them in the US through its own store at bluecubebaths.com and ships each tub curbside in the lower 48 states.
  • No BlueCube store or listing was found on Amazon US in November 2026.

The BlueCube C3 is a chill-only lay-down cold plunge with a 14-gauge 316-L stainless tub in a Line-X coated plywood cabinet and a hardwood side deck for a slower entry. The 66 inch tub measures 66 by 24 by 22 inches inside with a 72.5 by 48.5 by 28.5 inch footprint; the 72 inch tub costs the same.

The current page and cost page rate it from 34°F to 70°F with a 13,600 BTU/hr (1.5 HP+) chiller and no heater; an older brand page lists 37°F to 70°F and a 1 HP chiller, and the brand FAQ puts the C-line at 80 to 100 gallons.

Two ¼ HP Iwaki pumps circulate the water through a 20 micron filter with automatic ozone, with app temperature control and running under 60 dB. It needs a dedicated 120 V 20 A circuit or can be hardwired, and ships with a GFCI cord, an insulated cover with child locks and a maintenance kit.

The commercial package adds $4,500.00, a custom colour $2,500.00, reverse plumbing $2,000.00 and powder-coated screens $1,000.00.
