Covering Your Spa

An optional rigid spa cover is available to place on

top of the spa.  Use of this cover will help to minimize
heat loss and evaporation, and thus reduce energy
costs.  The cover is also an attractive and efficient
means of preventing debris such as leaves and dirt from
entering your spa when not in use.  Follow the instruc-
tions for use and care provided with the spa cover.

CAUTION: 

 While the spa cover is rigid, it is not

designed to support any weight. Therefore, as a
safety precaution and to preserve the life of your
cover, you must not sit, stand, or lie on it; nor
should you place objects of any kind on top of it.

Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath does not guarantee or war-

rant this cover. REFER TO SPA COVER MANUFAC-
TURERS INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE
COVER.

Spa Light

Colored filters are provided with your spa.  To

change a filter, simply pull the filter out of the fitting and
replace it with the desired colored filter.  Replacement
bulbs (#912) are also included. Put them in a safe place
for future use.  When a bulb burns out, replace it from
the back of the light fitting, pulling out the bulb recep-
tacle.

Cleaning Your Spa

Your  spa shell consists of two layers of plastic

materials.  Its smooth top surface of acrylic is tough and
durable and contains concentrated color.  This is sup-
ported by a substantial thickness of fiberglass-rein-
forced polyester resin.  A catalyst causes a chemical
reaction during manufacture that bonds these layers
permanently into a hard, strong material. With a mini-
mum amount of care and cleaning, your whirlpool spa
will look new for years.

To clean your spa, simply use a mild, non-abrasive

liquid detergent, isopropyl alcohol, or commercially pre-
pared spa cleaner.  Do not use abrasive cleaners.  You
can protect and restore the gloss to a dulled surface by
applying Meguiar’s #10 Mirror Glaze, which is a product
specifically designed for use on acrylic finishes.  If
Meguiar’s is not available, an acrylic polish of equal
quality or automotive paste wax will do.

Use a spa cleaner for residue buildup at the water

level of the spa surface.  This may be applied to the
acrylic surface with a soft cloth and wiped clean.  Use
sparingly in small amounts to avoid contaminating the
spa water.  If heavily soiled, it may be advisable to lower
the water level 2-3 inches before cleaning; then refill to
normal level.

Repairs to the Acrylic

Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color

finish (acrylic) can be removed with 600-grit wet/dry
sandpaper.  Restore the glossy finish with Meguiar’s #10
Mirror Glaze or comparable automotive paste wax.

Major scratches or gouges which penetrate the acrylic

surface will require refinishing.  Ask your Jacuzzi Whirl-
pool Bath dealer for special instructions.
