Terms and Conditions for Replacement
Monk's are designed to operate between 0°C to 40°C / 33.8°F to 104°F. So it's suitable for use in winter and summer across most locations.

If your Monk system is located in an environment where temperatures are expected to drop below 0°C, it's essential to take steps to prevent potential damage caused by freezing water inside the unit. Here's what you need to know to protect your Monk system and what to do in the event of freezing conditions.

Key Steps to Follow:
1. Keep your Monk on at all times: 
Monk must remain on when the ambient temperature drops below 0°C. This will ensure water is heated to a minimum of 3°C and water/air is constantly circulating through your bath, to avoid freezing in the pipes.

OR 

1. Drain the System as Normal: The most important preventive measure is to drain the Monk system. Draining the system using the standard procedure will remove the majority of water from the pipes and fittings, significantly reducing the risk of freeze-related damage.

2. Understand the Risks:
Residual Water: Even after draining, there will still be some water remaining in the system. However, this limited amount of water has room to expand in the pipes if it freezes, which helps reduce the risk of damage.

3. Soft Pipes and Expansion: Most of the pipes in the Monk system are soft (non-metal), allowing for some expansion when ice forms. This flexibility lowers the risk of pipe splitting or fittings being dislodged.

Potential Issues in Extreme Cold:

In the rare case that your Monk system is undrained and exposed to sub-zero temperatures, here's what could happen:

• Pipe Splitting or Fittings Dislodged: Ice expansion may cause soft pipes to split or fittings to pop off. This is an inconvenience but easily repairable. Replacement soft pipes and fittings can be repositioned without much hassle.
  
• Hard Pipes Damage: The bigger concern is with the hard pipes (such as steel or copper) inside the chiller. These are more susceptible to damage from ice expansion. If any of these hard pipes are damaged, the chiller itself may need to be replaced, as these pipes cannot be easily repaired. This would require support from the Monk servicing and repairs team at cost to you.

What to Do If You Suspect Damage:

• Inspect the System: After the temperature rises above freezing, visually inspect the Monk system for any obvious signs of pipe splitting or fittings that may have been pushed off their fixings.
• Soft Pipe Repairs: If soft pipes have split or fittings have been dislodged, these can typically be replaced or repositioned with minimal effort.
• Contact Support: If you suspect there is damage to the hard pipes inside the chiller (i.e., steel or copper components), reach out to Monk's customer support team for further assistance, as these will require professional attention and may necessitate a chiller replacement.

Maintenance & Servicing

Maintenance
Your Monk comes with a 20 micron filter, and we recommend you change it monthly depending on usage. We offer two types of filters on our website: 5 micron and 20 micron.

Thanks to our powerful and natural ozone sanitization, you only need to change the water every 2-4 months, depending on usage. We’ve made changing the water simple: our cooling unit has a reversible flow value, so it will automatically pump the water out via the hose that comes with your Monk, straight into a sink or drain. No manual bailing out water with buckets!

Warranty
Your Monk includes a 1 year warranty.

Servicing & Repairs
Our top priority is to fix any problems we can, either over the telephone or in-person with a Monk engineer. Any defective or damaged item that we can’t fix will be repaired or replaced.

FAQs

1. Will I fit in Monk?

Monk has been designed to be compact, yet spacious enough to accommodate a wide range of body sizes. Athletes as large as 6'6" and 115kg (like Anthony Joshua) find Monk comfortable to use. We've included three different fill lines internally (fill to 170L, 200L or 230L) to accommodate for all sizes of human.

Monk features a unique hybrid design where users are in a semi-reclined posture that is neither fully upright nor completely horizontal. This space-efficient posture allows us to maximise comfort while fitting a variety of body types. Additionally, this position increases hydrostatic pressure, which can enhance circulation, reduce muscle swelling, and promote faster recovery.

2. What are the seat dimensions?

The seat inside Monk is 53cm in width x 32cm in length x elevated 12cm in height. The complete length of Monk when seated inside is 85cm creating space for your legs to stretch out in Monk.

3. How does Monk keep the water clean?

Monk has a dual stage filtration system, with the water continuously circulating through a sediment filter and being infused with ozone. The filter’s job is to keep the water clear of physical particles and debris, and the ozone sanitization’s job is to keep the water free
from bacteria and pathogens.
