How to Drain and Refill Your Viking Cold PlungeUpdated a day ago

1. Draining the Viking

  • Unplug the chiller before starting any maintenance.

  • Close both grey valves on the Viking to stop water flow.

  • Attach a garden hose to the bottom drain valve for easy draining.

  • Open the drain valve and allow the water to fully empty.

2. Cleaning the Viking

  • Disconnect the hoses after draining to prevent soap from entering the system.

  • Scrub the interior with mild dish soap (e.g., Dawn) using a soft sponge or brush.

  • Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.

  • Securely close the drain valve and both grey valves when finished.

3. Refilling the Viking

  • Ensure all valves are closed before refilling.

  • Reconnect the hoses to the chiller.

  • Refill the Viking until the water level is about four fingers below the top port.

  • Open both grey valves to allow water flow.

  • Plug the chiller back in (If needed, please refer to your Viking Model installation guide available in our Help Center.)
