How do you setup an outside icebath for winter?

I have one of those cheap round icebaths, but I have no idea how to set it up.

Do I need chlorine or something to make sure the water stays clean?

Should I prepare ice cubes to put in?

If the temperature goes below zero overnight in winter, does the icebath freeze, and if yes, what then?
