The thermal cover should be cleaned regularly. As often as
is necessary wash the cover with a mild soap and rinse with
clean water. All vinyls contain plasticizers which must be
maintained to prevent drying out, cracking, flaking and
deterioration. These plasticizers migrate out and escape nat-
urally through time. Sun and cold speed up this process.
Application of a vinyl cleaner and conditioner at least once a
month will retard this deterioration.
The vinyls used in your spa cover are marine treated, but
will deteriorate faster when exposed to high levels of chlo-
rine, bromine, ozone or other active chemicals. Each time
Chemicals are added, remove the cover completely and place
it far enough away so that splashing will not reach the cover.
The cover handles and tie downs are double reinforced with
thick vinyl coated rip-stop PVC material. However, mistreat-
ment by sudden jarring motions can damage them. To pre-
vent damage any handling of the cover must be done in a
gentle manner.
IMPORTANT
Fading and discolouration
of the spa cover will occur naturally
with extended exposure to the sun.
WARNING
The cover is not a safety cover. Do not
stand, sit or lie on it or permit any heavy
weight to rest on it. This will damage the
cover and void the warranty.
