How do I set up a repeating sauna or cold plunge schedule?

Repeating schedule template plus daily generation and release policy create repeating sauna and cold plunge schedules.

ZettlorUpdated August 26, 2026

A repeating schedule template defines the repeating pattern; the schedule generates overnight to create open slots on the schedule. Staff edit templates in Scheduling → Configuration and monitor on Schedule.

What Zettlor does today

Repeating schedules come from template recurrence, start interval or session start times, and release policy. The schedule generates overnight and creates future open slots daily. Schedule shows generated instances; per-slot overrides do not change the template. Staff can also generate from the template tools rather than waiting overnight.

This behavior is live in Zettlor today for a commercial sauna and cold plunge room. Guest booking, cancel, and credit self-serve steps stay on Help. This page is for operators.

Desk path

Scheduling → Configuration to create and edit templates; Schedule to verify generated repeating rows.

Do not invent a settings path beyond what is listed here. If the product does not include a control, the desk workaround is the path.

Failure mode

Operators edit one Schedule row expecting recurrence to update. Only template changes affect future generated slots.

Operator example

Alchemy weekday 6 AM cold plunge repeats via repeating schedule template; the schedule generates overnight and fills the next release window.

A sauna and cold plunge operator can copy the shape of this example without copying another brand's private pricing or customer lists.

How to do this

  1. Create a repeating schedule template for the sauna or cold plunge offering with recurrence rules.
  2. Set session length, seats, and start pattern (start interval or session start times).
  3. Configure release policy so far-ahead days generate on schedule.
  4. Confirm the schedule generated open slots on Schedule.
  5. Edit the template for pattern changes; use Schedule overrides only for one-off exceptions.

How often are new repeating slots created?

The schedule generates overnight; staff can also generate from the template tools.

Can I pause repeats without deleting the template?

Disable or set the template to preview mode, or stop release policy, then verify Schedule stops new open slots.
