03 — Driftwood Care

Maintain

Premium spaces deserve ongoing care — and fast fixes when things break. Driftwood Care is a quiet maintenance subscription that keeps cold plunges, saunas and recovery environments performing as they did on day one. We also specialize in cold plunge repair: pumps, compressors, chillers, control boards and the parts that stop working.

— Cold plunge repair

We fix what breaks.

Cold plunges are mechanical systems — pumps, compressors, chillers and electronics all eventually fail. We specialize in diagnosing and fixing them fast.

Most cold plunge owners are told to call the manufacturer, wait on hold, then ship a part across the country. We keep common components in stock and handle the repair in your home or studio, usually in a single visit.

Pumps

Replace or rebuild circulation pumps, impellers and pump housings that lose flow or burn out.

Compressors & chillers

Diagnose and replace failed compressors, chiller units, refrigeration loops and heat exchangers.

Control boards & sensors

Swap temperature sensors, flow switches, digital displays and main control boards.

Filtration & sanitation

Replace filters, UV bulbs, ozone generators and plumbing fittings.

We repair most residential and commercial cold plunge brands — including builds we didn't sell. Not sure what's wrong? We'll diagnose it and quote before any work starts.

— Repair & diagnostic

Something not working?

Start with an on-site diagnostic. We troubleshoot sauna and cold plunge systems, identify the issue, and recommend the appropriate repair.

— Fountain & property care

Care beyond the wellness room.

Fountain repair in Los Angeles

Fountain not running as it should? Driftwood provides on-site fountain assessments and repair for homes and managed properties across Los Angeles. We investigate what is not working and help you determine the next steps to get your fountain running again.

Request fountain repair

A resource for your property.

Real estate agents, property managers, Airbnb hosts and landlords: bring us in to assess the systems and amenities your clients, residents and guests expect to be working. From fountains to saunas, cold plunges and steam rooms, we help identify care and repair needs.

We also provide hands-on wellness-amenity walkthroughs, teaching you and your clients how to use the equipment in the property. Preparing for a handover or need help elsewhere in the home? Tell us what needs attention — our work goes beyond wellness amenities.

Most of this work is private estates — Manhattan Beach, the sand section, and coastal homes down the peninsula and into Malibu. Our background is estate maintenance at Yellowstone Club Homes in Montana, so we are used to homes where nothing is allowed to sit broken. We work quietly alongside estate managers and household staff, and we keep who we work for to ourselves.

— Driftwood Transport

Cranes, forklifts and a 30-foot gooseneck.

Before Driftwood, our founder worked as an ironworker, so heavy equipment is home turf. We rig and set saunas, cold plunges, spas and other heavy pieces — including tight coastal lots and hillside properties — and run our own 30-foot gooseneck flatbed for deliveries, pick-ups and haul-aways across Los Angeles.

Every job is quoted before anything moves: send the details and you get one flat number.

Penguin chiller rewire — smashed power cable

Venice Beach on the canals, CA

The chiller's power cable had been crushed against the equipment cabinet, shorting conductors and killing the unit. We cut back the damaged run, re-terminated the conductors, sealed and strain-relieved the new whip, then verified the chiller pulled the plunge back down to temperature with full circulation before we left.

Custom cedar sauna refresh — deep clean

Manhattan Beach, CA

A custom-built cedar sauna that had gone a long stretch without service. We pulled the duckboard floor and bench slats, scrubbed body oil and residue out of the cedar with low-tox products, flushed the floor down to clean water, cleaned the heater guard and stones, and put it all back so the grain reads light and even again.

— Our pledge

Clean water, clean air.

We keep toxins out of the saunas and plunges we care for — on purpose, every visit.

For cold plunges and saunas we prefer no chemical cleaners. We rely on ozone, UV, mineral systems and top-tier organic products to keep water and cedar pristine — so what touches your skin and what you breathe in stays clean.

No harsh chemicals

Ozone, UV and mineral water care over chlorine and bromine.

Low-VOC builds

Natural finishes, organic oils, breathable surfaces.

Resourceful materials

Responsibly-sourced timber, stone and reclaimed elements.
