Weather Shield is designed to be easy to maintain. It can be washed, or brushed off
and rinsed. Proper care and cleaning is important to the life of all fabrics.
FOR NORMAL CARE AND CLEANING.
Add 2 ounces of mild soap such as Woolite or Dawn dishwashing liquid to 1 gallon of
lukewarm water.Clean the fabric with a "soft bristle brush."Rinse thoroughly with cold
water and air dry.
FOR STUBBORN STAINS.
Add maximum 1 cup of bleach to one 1 gallon of water.Spray on lightly to the fabric face
(non-coated side). Do not soak fabric. Prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals can
damage the coating.Rinse immediately. Do not leave on for more than 2
minutes.Cleaning with harsh cleaners such as bleach will require a retreatment like 303
High Tech Fabric Guard for restoring water repellency.
Caring For Your Spa Cover
A proper and diligent spa cover care routine can certainly be the difference between
you needing to buy another cover in 3-4 years instead of it lasting 5-7 years. Here are
some tips to get the most out of your new spa cover purchase.
Keep the cover clean.
Wipe chemical residue from the underside of the cover every chance you get.
These residues, if left on the cover, start to break down the material causing it to
become porous. Water vapor begins to penetrate the EPS core when its
protective layer become too porous.
Maintain proper spa water chemistry. We cannot stress this enough. As your spa
water chemistry is more balanced, the vapors coming off the tub are less
corrosive. Making the vapors less corrosive leads to the protective layers of the
cover to degrade more slowly, thus prolonging the life of your cover. Failing to
maintain proper water chemistry may void your warranty.
Unzip the cover and clean just inside the zipper at least twice per year. Mildew
has a tendancy to build up here and if you have not kept your sanitizer levels up
you may develop this as a problem. Use a weak amonia and water solution.
Remove the EPS cores and flip them over at least once per year. The cover is
a protective layering system designed to slow the EPS core absorption of water
vapor. The corrosive vapors formed in your spa break down these layers over
time. By flipping the cores over, you start to work on the other side of the
protective wrap on the core.
Remove the cover for 20-30 minutes after shocking your spa water. As the shock
is burning out the Chloromines and Bromimines in your spa, highly corrosive
