DO NOT
leave your Traditional Spa drained and in direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. Extreme heat could cause
damage to the acrylic surface and may induce an effect known
as “crazing”.
STAINLESS STEEL CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS ABOVE
THE WATER LINE
To preserve the stainless steel finish of the controls and
components above the water line, we recommend they be
wiped with a dry soft cloth after each use of your Traditional
Spa. In addition, off-gas your spa by removing the
cover for approximately 30 minutes multiple times per week (if
not in use) and after every shock treatment.
CABINET CARE
Never spray cabinets with a high-pressure garden hose
or pressure washer for any reason. This action may induce
an electrical short in the Traditional Spa’s electrical equipment.
CEDAR CABINET
Our cedar cabinets are made from top quality Western Cedar and
manufactured and stained at our factory. With proper care and
maintenance, your cedar cabinet should maintain its beauty for
many years. Manufacturer recommends touch-up or re-staining of
the cabinet every three to four years depending on your
environment. Contact your Dealer for re-staining procedures.
VINYL CABINET
Vinyl cabinets are made of a rigid polymer that
combines the durability of plastic with the beauty of real
wood. This cabinet is manufactured so that it won’t crack,
peel, blister or delaminate even after prolonged exposure to
the elements. We recommend wiping the cabinet with a
soft damp cloth (or sponge) using household soap or liquid
detergent and rinsing with fresh water thoroughly. DO NOT
use abrasive cleansers or material as this may damage the
surface.
SLATE CABINETS
Optional Slate cabinets are custom-built and painted in our
factory. We recommend lightly brushing the cabinet with a SOFT
bristle brush to remove any dirt or stains. For more information on
the care of your Slate cabinet, please contact your Local Dealer.
COVER CARE
A well cared for spa cover is a thing of beauty in its own right. Be
sure to clean and condition your cover at least once a
month (more often if needed). Your cover needs to be cleaned
and
conditioned because vinyl can be dry and become brittle,
spoiling your spa’s appearance.
Dry, brittle vinyl can also tear at the seams and stress points.
Quality materials, internal sewn reinforcing and careful
workmanship can only go so far against the ravages of Mother
Nature. See the specific Warranty card enclosed with your cover
for further details.
•
When you shock your spa you need to remove the cover for a
minimum of 30 minutes to ensure that the chemical gas off
can escape from the spa.
•
You are required to keep the spa covered at all time when not
in use to protect the shell from harmful UV rays.
•
A covered spa will use less electricity when maintaining the
desired water temperature.
•
See the manual that comes with the cover for proper mounting
of the cover locks.
•
The cover should remain locked at all times to prevent
unauthorized entry into the spa and potential drowning.
•
Do not Sit, Stand or Lie on your cover. Nor should you place
any heavy object on top of the cover as this may damage the
structure.
VERY IMPORTANT:
We recommend a vinyl conditioner for
your spa cover. Your local dealer carries a wide variety of
care and maintenance products. Choose a pleasant day each
month to remove your cover from the spa and lay it on a flat
surface accessible by garden hose. Douse the cover with a
healthy amount of water from the hose or a bucket to rinse
away loose dirt or debris. Using a soft bristle brush and a
mild solution of dishwashing liquid (about one teaspoon of
detergent to two gallons of water), and with a gentle circular
motion, scrub the cover clean. Be careful not to let any
areas of the cover dry before they’re thoroughly rinsed. Now
apply the vinyl conditioner as directed on the container.
Massage the conditioner into the cover in a gentle but firm
manner. Before replacing the cover on your spa, wipe and rinse
any dirt from the bottom of the cover. When you are ready, put
the cover on the spa.
NOTE:
To remove tree sap, use lighter fluid (not charcoal
lighter but the fluid used in cigarette lighters). Use sparingly, then
immediately apply conditioner to that area. All waterfalls and
laminar flow water features should be turned off when the spa is
not in use to avoid heat and water loss.
