Shipping & Delivery
Shipping & Delivery
Your order ships free from the manufacturer's California warehouse on a strapped pallet via insured LTL freight. Orders are processed within 2 to 5 business days depending on the brand, and delivery to most addresses in the contiguous US takes 5 to 14 business days after shipment. See the brand section of our shipping policy for the times that apply to your product. You'll receive a tracking number by email as soon as your order leaves the warehouse.
Scheduling your delivery. The freight carrier will reach out before the truck rolls — most carriers call 24–48 hours ahead to lock in a four-hour delivery window. Some carriers (including R+L) send an email or text the morning of delivery instead. Respond promptly either way. If the carrier can't reach you and misses 2–3 delivery attempts, terminal storage fees kick in and the item may be returned at your expense.
What to expect at delivery. A 53-foot semi-truck arrives at your curbside. The driver uses the truck's built-in liftgate to lower the pallet to ground level — that's where their responsibility ends. Standard delivery does not include bringing the equipment inside, up stairs, or unpacking. Plan ahead: have help available to move it once it's off the truck. Someone must be present to sign for the delivery.
CRITICAL — inspect before you sign. Walk around the pallet and check every box before signing the Bill of Lading. Cosmetic damage can be accepted. If a carton is punctured or crushed, or the sauna itself is damaged, refuse that item and call us on (888) 500-5675 while the driver is still there. Note the damage on the Bill of Lading before you sign, writing exactly what you see, and ask the driver to initial it. If the driver will not initial it, note the damage anyway, sign, and photograph the Bill of Lading. Contact us within 48 hours with photos. Once the damage is documented on the Bill of Lading we can file a valid freight claim and ship a replacement at no cost to you. If you refuse for a reason other than damage, or without contacting us first, return freight costs may become your responsibility. Signing a clean BOL releases the freight carrier from all liability. Claims filed after a clean signature are routinely denied. This takes two minutes and fully protects you.
Good to know. If your address changes after the order ships, contact us immediately — carrier re-routing fees may apply and will add transit time. If your location cannot comfortably accommodate a 53-foot semi-truck (island, remote road, gated community, narrow access), contact us before ordering so we can arrange an appropriate solution.
Questions before you order? Call or text (888) 500-5675, Mon–Sat 9am–6pm EST. We coordinate every delivery ourselves.
Free freight applies to standard residential curbside delivery within the contiguous 48 US states. Hawaii, Alaska, and Canada are not available at standard checkout — contact us before ordering for a freight quote. Transit times are carrier estimates, not guarantees.

Warranty
Warranty
Dynamic Cold Therapy cold plunge tubs are covered by a 1-year limited warranty from Dynamic Cold Therapy, on tubs purchased from an authorized dealer in undamaged original packaging.
What's covered. Defects in materials and workmanship: the polycarbonate insert, the wooden shell and trim, and all other components each carry 1 year. Chillers carry a 1-year manufacturer warranty. Insulated covers carry 1 year and neoprene hose covers 90 days; replacement filters are consumables with no warranty.
What's not covered. Fading or discoloration from UV exposure, damage from storage in below-freezing temperatures, corrosion or discoloration caused by lack of water maintenance, and any labor cost associated with a claim. Coverage applies to the original purchaser and is not transferable.
Keep the water balanced, and don't let it freeze. Corrosion from poor water maintenance and freeze damage are the two most common reasons a claim is declined. Ask us for the maintenance schedule — we'll send it with your order.
Keep your proof of purchase. Note that Golden Designs' 60-day registration portal covers infrared saunas only and does not apply to cold therapy products.
How to make a claim. Contact us — as your authorized dealer we handle the claim with the manufacturer for you. Email sales@recoveryroomdirect.com or call (888) 500-5675 with your order number and photos of the issue.

Return Policy
Return Policy
We stand behind every product we sell. If it's not the right fit, you have 30 days from delivery to return it — and if you need to cancel before it ships, there is no fee as long as we have not yet submitted your order to the manufacturer. After we submit it but before it ships, a 5% administrative fee may apply, and we waive it whenever we are not charged.
How to start a return. Email us your order number at sales@recoveryroomdirect.com and we'll issue a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number within one business day. Write that number clearly on the outside of every box before handing it to the carrier — the warehouse will not accept returns without it.
Condition required. The item must come back new, unused, and in its original packaging with all components, hardware, and accessories included. Items that have been assembled, used, or modified cannot be returned. Electronic components — power supplies, control panels, and accessories — are non-returnable under manufacturer policy regardless of condition.
What it costs to return. We want to be upfront about this: returning large freight equipment has real costs. The manufacturer charges a 20% restocking fee on all returns, and you are responsible for the return freight. If your original order shipped free, the actual outbound freight cost is also deducted from your refund. Any storage or carrier routing fees incurred during the return process are the buyer's responsibility as well. Once the item arrives at the warehouse and passes inspection, your refund is issued within 5 business days to your original payment method.
Damaged on arrival? That's a different process entirely — and you're fully protected. If you accepted the delivery and documented the damage on the Bill of Lading, we handle the freight claim and ship you a replacement at no cost. No restocking fee, no return shipping. This is exactly why we ask you to inspect carefully before you sign.
The manufacturer warranty covers defects that arise after the 30-day return window. See full warranty terms at goldendesigninc.com. We're here Mon–Sat, 9am–6pm EST. Applies to all Golden Designs Inc. brands: Dynamic Saunas, Maxxus Saunas, and Dynamic Cold Therapy. View our full Return Policy →

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
52-Inch Drop-Stitch Oval Cold Plunge — Full-Body Soaking in a Portable 40-Pound Tub
The DCT Oval Inflatable Cold Plunge Tub is built from drop-stitch PVC — the same high-pressure drop-stitch construction used in rigid inflatable paddleboards. It holds approximately 102 gallons across a 46”×26” interior soaking space and inflates quickly with the included manual hand pump. At 40 lbs dry, it folds flat for storage and packs into its carry bag.
This is the tub only. A DCT chiller (sold separately) connects to the built-in 1” ID inlet and outlet fittings to reach temperatures as low as 37°F. Without a chiller, the tub functions as an ice-water vessel — fill with tap water and add ice each session. The included insulated cover helps maintain water temperature between uses.

Built for Cold Exposure — Portable Enough to Move
Three reasons the drop-stitch oval stands apart from traditional vinyl inflatables and cheap tub alternatives.
Drop-stitch PVC inflatable construction means the inner and outer walls are linked by thousands of individual threads — this keeps the tub rigid and holds its shape under the weight of 850 lbs of water, unlike traditional vinyl inflatables that bow and distort. It’s the same construction method used in rigid inflatable paddleboards designed for ocean surf.
At 52 inches long and 32 inches wide, the oval tub’s 46×26 inch interior soaking space accommodates users up to 6’4”. At 40 lbs dry, it folds and stores in the included carry bag. Inflation takes a few minutes with the included manual hand pump. No permanent installation required — set it up indoors on a waterproof surface, or outdoors on any level ground.
The built-in 1” ID inlet and outlet fittings connect directly to DCT’s chiller lineup (0.8 HP or 1.0 HP) via the included hose adapters. Once connected, the chiller circulates and cools the water to as low as 37°F without ice. The included cover insulates the water between sessions. Without a chiller, the tub works as an ice-bath vessel — add ice each session to reach your target temperature.
Oval vs. Round — Which Inflatable Is Right for You?
Both inflatable tubs are priced identically and hold approximately 102 gallons. The decision comes down to body position, space, and use case.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the oval and round inflatable tub?
The oval (DCT-IO-052) measures 52”×32” exterior with a 46”×26” interior soaking space — suited for elongated reclining and users up to 6’4”. The round (DCT-IR-040) has a 40” diameter footprint and a seated-upright posture; per DCT’s own FAQ it accommodates two people seated. Both hold ~102 gallons and are priced identically. The oval is the better pick for taller users who prefer a horizontal soak; the round is more compact and social. View the Round Inflatable
Does this tub come with a chiller?
No. The price covers the tub only — inflatable tub, safety cover, anti-slip mat, hand pump, and carry bag. A chiller is sold separately. The oval tub is compatible with DCT’s 0.8 HP or 1.0 HP chillers, which connect via the built-in 1” ID inlet/outlet fittings using the included adapters. Without a chiller, the tub works as an ice-water vessel. Call (888) 500-5675 if you’d like to pair a chiller with your order.
How do I use this without a chiller — can I just add ice?
Yes. Fill with cold tap water, then add 50–75 lbs of ice to bring the temperature into the 50–55°F range from room-temperature tap water. Without a chiller, temperature won’t hold long in warm conditions — each session requires fresh ice. The included insulated cover helps slow warming between uses. A DCT chiller (sold separately) eliminates ice management and holds temperature automatically.
Is drop-stitch PVC durable enough for daily cold plunge use?
Drop-stitch PVC is the same construction method used in rigid inflatable paddleboards — thousands of internal threads link the inner and outer walls, keeping the tub rigid under the weight of 850 lbs of water. It’s designed for regular, repeated use. Avoid sharp objects, prolonged direct sunlight, and sub-freezing outdoor temperatures with water inside. Drain and store indoors if temperatures will drop below freezing.
Can I use the oval tub outdoors year-round?
The oval tub is rated for three-season outdoor use — it is not designed for sub-freezing temperatures. In climates where overnight temps drop below 32°F, drain the tub and store it indoors or in a protected space. Water left standing inside at freezing temperatures can damage the fittings and material. In mild climates with temperatures above freezing, year-round outdoor use is practical.
What warranty does this come with from Recovery Room Direct?
DCT provides a 1-year warranty from the date of delivery on personal cold plunge models, as stated on DCT’s own FAQ page. Recovery Room Direct is an authorized DCT dealer, so manufacturer warranty claims apply to purchases made through our store. Contact us at (888) 500-5675 with any warranty questions.
