W IN T E RI Z ING YO UR SPA
Your Vita Spa has been designed and engi n e e r e d
for year-round use in any climate. If the spa will not
be used, drain it completely, following the
instructions on “DRA INING THE SPA .”If you intend
to use the spa during the winter, keep the spa
covered to prevent heat loss.
E XC E L- WOOD CABINET MAINTENANCE (L70 0 C )
The exterior of your Vita Spa cabinet is made from
a newly formulated high strength material that is
factory stained and sealed. Depending on the
location and exposure of the spa to nature’s
elements, it is recommended that you clean the
cabinet once or twice a year with warm water and
a mild soap.
N AT URAL RE DWOOD (LC 50 0 )
Although your spa came stained from the factory,
exposure to wind, rain and sun will cause the wood
to weather. Much like any piece of furniture, if your
spa came with natural redwood, you will be
required to preserve it from time to time
(suggested minimum of two times per year). Yo u r
Vita Spa is treated with a specially formulated
“water-based” stain and sealer. This sealer can be
obtained through your local Vita Spa dealer. DO
N OT USE URET H A NE OR POLY E STER COAT IN G S
that will prevent the wood from its need for natural
m o i s t u r i z i n g .
COVER MAIN T E N A N C E
Your cover is manufactured from a durable marine
grade, UV resistant material. Even so, monthly
cleaning
and
periodic
conditioning
is
recommended to maintain its beauty. To clean
and condition the vinyl cover: Lightly spray the
cover with a garden hose to rinse it and remove
the debris. Using a large sponge or soft cloth and
a mild soap solution (1 teaspoon dish washing
liquid with 2 gallons of water), scrub lightly in
circular motion. Then rinse it thoroughly with
plenty of water. Condition the vinyl after cleaning
by applying a thin film of vinyl conditioner. NOT E :
To remove tree saps, use lighter fluid (not charcoal
lighter but the kind used in cigarette lighters).
Use sparingly and rinse with mild soap solution
afterwards. Wipe dry.
C A RE OF AC RYLIC SURFAC E
To maintain the surface of your spa, simply clean
with a soft damp cloth (a mild detergent is okay)
or with any glass cleaner. DO NOT clean the
s u rface with any type of abrasive as it will dull the
s u rface and natural luster of the acrylic. DO NOT
use any type of oil based solvent. Such products
can be very harmful to the surface of the spa and
will void the surface warranty of the spa.
C A RE OF SPA PIL LOWS
The spa pillows will provide years of comfort if
treated with care. Each pillow has been positioned
above the water level to minimize the bleaching
effects of chlorinated water and other spa water
chemicals. It is recommended that pillows be
removed and cleaned each time the spa itself is
cleaned. A mild soap and warm water works best
in removing body oils. ALWAYS rinse the pillows off
thoroughly after applying any type of soap to
assure that no residue remains. If you are
winterizing your spa or do not plan on using it for
a while, it is best to remove the pillows until the
next use. Pillows should always be removed
whenever the spa is being superchlorinated.
