How Long Should I Keep My Viking Gen 2 Chiller Running?Updated a day ago

Our Viking Gen 2 chillers are designed with a powerful pump built to run continuously, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This constant circulation helps maintain optimal water temperature and quality in your cold plunge vessel.

Scheduling Through the Nordic Flow App
If you prefer, you can set a custom running schedule using our Nordic Flow app. This feature allows you to tailor the chiller operation to your daily routine and energy preferences.

What to Keep in Mind
While scheduling the chiller to run only during specific times is possible, it’s important to remember that when water sits still in the vessel for extended periods, debris and impurities can accumulate more quickly. This buildup can lead to your water filter and inline hose strainer getting dirty faster, which may affect the chiller’s performance and require more frequent maintenance.

Pro Tip for Scheduled Use
If you choose to use the chiller on a scheduled timer, we recommend setting it to turn on at least one hour before your desired plunge time. This allows the water to be properly cleaned, filtered, and cooled before you enter, ensuring the best plunge experience.
