By looking after your hot tub cover your spa will be insulated properly keeping heating and chemical costs down!
General Hot Tub Cover Care Tips:
- Keep clean with mild soap and water, do not use silicone based cleaners or treatments.
- Do not scrape or drag cover.
- Do not use vapor seals to lift or remove spa cover (pouches at inside ends of hinge area).
- Do not lift cover without unfastening locking straps.
- Keep water and snow off top of cover.
- Do not walk, sit or lean on cover.
- Attach all locking hold down straps when installing & fasten when not in use to prevent heat loss.
- Use handles & straps for positioning only, handles & seams will not support the weight of cover.
- Do not place heavy objects on the cover.
- When not on the spa, ensure cover is stored to prevent buckling.
Inner Core Maintenance:
Important: Excess chemicals and/or chemical imbalance will deteriorate the plastic vapour barrier. When the vapour barrier is damaged, inner cores will absorb moisture. The following instructions will prolong the life of your plastic vapour barrier and inner cores.
- Be sure to take the cover completely off the tub when shocking with chemicals and leave it off for a period of 30 minutes or until the chemical level is back to normal. Very important to take cover off, not just flip one side open.
- Spray or wipe off the bottom side of your cover approximately once a month to get the excess chemical residue off the plastic barrier. These excess chemicals are what cause the plastic to dry out and crack.
- Approximately every 6 months, take the inserts out and flip them over so that the opposite side of the insert is over the water.
