So glad I found your video. I was just about to place my order. Definitely not doing so now. I’ll keep looking for another cost effective option. Happy plunging!!!
@@gurpreetbhela1421 I would recommend buying everything Ala carte. Just be sure to get the measurements on fittings for the inlets and outlets on the tank and chiller so they match up with your tubing. I would recommend not going any smaller than 5/8 on tubing and I highly recommend buying an inline pump that is more than capable of cycling enough GPH
Just another guy who wanted to say thanks for your videos. The fitting, pipe and pump package with this is just low quality and seemingly underpowered for this circulation piece. I switched out the hoses with better-quality clear tubing, and I can see the pump does not have the power to circulate the water in this thing. The pump you recommended arrives tomorrow. I can't believe I have to make all these extra purchases just to make this function as designed. Thank you again, Nicholas..
@@depotwest dude, it’s so frustrating paying that much upfront just to end up having to basically DIY it yourself. These videos were my attempt at making it ‘a tad’ less frustrating for the next person. Thanks for your comment and good luck to you.
@@nicholasclay6534 It truly is. It's like they never put it together and went, wait, this doesn't work the way we are advertising. Anyway, with your help, I will be up and running tomorrow. The chiller was blowing the breaker yesterday because I believe the pump was trying too hard. Hopefully, that won't happen once I get an appropriate pump. Thanks again, and all the best to you!
Much appreciated! I just got one of these myself and was marveling at how bad the instructions and how shoddy the fittings are. I ordered an Active Aqua 400 on your recommendation, waiting for it to show up. I know you don't get anything from this other than helping people. That is noble and appreciated!
@@nicholasclay6534 I wrote to Nurecover about the fittings on the tubes. I would imagine you experienced the same - I could only tighten them so much then they clicked and went loose again. The response: "They are designed to be this way. It is not possible to tighten them all the way to the end."
I was finding initially that the filter housing wasn't maintaining the water level at all. I had about an inch in there. I recharged the system using a hose after turning it off and re-seated the filter and it was good for about 24 hours but then dropped down to about half again. I was wondering if, in your opinion, that could be due to the pump they provided being inadequate?
Awesome video this company is an absolute disaster. Quick question. What was the second grey fitting you removed from the new pump you bought? I cant see how to connect it. Thanks brother. Any help is more than appreciated!!
@@campbellgunther7971 sorry for the delay on the reply… that grey cover just pops off the front. There will be another plastic fitting under that you need to unscrew. Hope that helps!
Sorry again, bro haha I’m going to post this review here too to warn other people - I’m so annoyed with Nurecover, they’re a nightmare. Happy you got yours to work though :) Friends, stay far, far away from this company. My Pod Chiller Pro arrived and doesn’t work. Something is rattling around in it. To resolve this, they sent me a video IN MANDARIN of someone in a factory on how to use it. I’m not making that up. Now they won’t accept a return because it’s been opened. Guys, how could I know it didn’t work unless I opened it? The worst.
Surprisingly their customer support has been good with me in the past, though I have heard the nightmares. I had a Portable Ice Bath with a hole that they sent a replacement for. I had patched the hole in the original and continued to use it, then eventually when the patch gave out I opened the new one they sent and it had been in the box for a few months and had a small hole in the inflatable rim and they sent another new one.
Thanks for posting....very helpful. I just set up my Nurecover pod and chiller and had a question about setting temp. In addition to setting the temp that you want the water in your pod to be the instructions attempt to explain how to set the "starting temperature". I assume this is the warmer temp you want to trigger the chiller to kick on enabling you to maintain a min and max temp range of the water without the chiller kicking on and off constantly. Whereas the min is the "stopping temp" (of the chiller) and max is the "starting temp" (of the chiller). The instructions are very confusing and call this setting the back-difference temperature. I am assuming it is the actual temperature range amount (between min and max), but I am guessing. For example, if you want the chiller to keep the water between 48 and 52 degrees then you would set the back-difference temp to 4 degrees. I was wondering if you messed with that setting or had any insight. Thanks and apologies for the long question.
@@ChrisD-q1y your assumptions are entirely correct. I set mine to 50° F and it gets around 53 before the compressor kicks on to start chilling again. I thought about adjusting the tolerance, but that would just mean my compressor would be kicking on more and more - my thought is the less it has to kick on, the less wear-and-tear, and the longer the chiller will last. Speaking of longevity, one thing I haven’t mentioned in any of my videos is that you ‘need’ to keep your pump running at all times. This is to avoid build up in your system. Mainly the pump and chiller. The only time I’d recommend shutting it off is for maintenance/refilling, or when you’ll be gone for long periods of time… in which case you’ll want to drain the tank and let the entire system air out completely
Hi, just wanted to reach out as im having a nightmare with Nurecover. Ive set everything up like youve shown on the video but dont seem to be getting any water flow for long and the temp isn’t changing. I do still have the rubbish pump they sent as not had chance to get a new one. Maybe that’s why. I can’t actually believe how bad they have been.
@@callumsimpson-u5w it’s most certainly the pump. Be sure to check to make sure you’re inlet and outlet are set to open. It also helps if the pump is at or below the base of the pod.
Hey great video!! Had my pod and chiller for 3 months now and that filter is starting to smell extremely bad almost like a sewer smell… It makes my water smell horrible and I can’t seem to find a replacement filter… is there a filter you recommend?
@@chrisnicholas8176 your timing is impeccable as I just received a shipment today of new filter cartridges. I was able to find a company called flow-pro that makes 2.5”x5” melt blown filters that are 20 micron and NSF tested and certified. My pump is much happier and quieter. I would recommend finding those and in the meantime you should take your filter out and soak it in distilled white vinegar for up to an hour and then spray it off thoroughly with warm water
@@nicholasclay6534 any chance you can provide a link to that company? I tried searching for flow-pro and found a number of sites but not one directly for them with a purchase link. Thanks!
@@nicholasclay6534 I had posted a link to some filters I found since I couldn't find a flow-pro site that sells direct but I think YT took it down. I did find a site with 30 Micron 5x2.5 Pleated Polyester Filter Cartridges at $2.18 a pop. Is that a comparable price and do you think those would do the trick? Thanks again for your assistance!
The filter that came with it seems to clean pretty easily. I hit it with a high strength hose stream and some water/white vinegar mix. I was able to order some 5, 10 and 30 micron filters online for a very reasonable price. From what I understand, the lower the microns the more it filters out but then the faster they'll get clogged up. I couldn't find any reasonably priced 20 micron so I will give these three a go and report back. I have tried to post where I got them but YT seems to be killing any comments with an exterior link. Feel free to message me direct if you want the link. Thanks again to Nicholas for these videos and the chance to discuss this stuff.
Good morning and thank you for this video it really helped a lot as the instructions that came with it weren’t helpful at all!! Can we leave this chiller on and running 24 hours is that okay? Or we need to turn it off? Also one more thing, have you noticed any increase in your electricity bills? I am new to this I just installed it a couple of days ago and I was wondering if the electricity bills will go up. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
@@roxanakewayfati5867 great question. Yes, I would strongly advise keeping the pump and chiller running at all times unless you leave for several days - in which case I would recommend draining and letting it dry out. Not sure if you read through the other comments but the pump that comes standard with the Nurecover system is way underpowered for that size tank. Buy “at least” a 400 gallon per hour pump
So glad I found your video. I was just about to place my order. Definitely not doing so now. I’ll keep looking for another cost effective option. Happy plunging!!!

Other users, how often do you use the plunge and how often do you change the water entirely?
This exact chiller can be bought on Aliexpress that is where they get them from
