AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.

Utah law already blocks the Department of Health and Human Services from regulating public cold plunge tubs, and this bill expands that exemption by broadening the definition of what counts as a "public cold bath." The updated definition now includes cold plunge tubs used by apartment residents in shared common areas, raises the allowed water volume from 180 to 650 gallons, and increases the number of simultaneous users from one to five. Apartment residents who have access to cold plunge tubs in shared amenity spaces will now be covered by the same deregulated status as other public cold baths, meaning those tubs face no state health department oversight requirements.
