Your spa was manufactured with the highest quality materials and care available in the spa industry,making sure you spend more time
enjoying your spa than you do taking care of it. Just as a healthy body requires an occasional check up, a healthy spa requires some
maintenance and attention. Developing a regular routine of care ensures your spa’s health and your peace of mind.
Caring for the Acrylic Surface
Your spa was cast from Lucite® Acrylic making it durable and resilient. It is dirt and stain resistant. Using household cleaners and
detergent may leave a dulling residue. When needed, wipe the surface with warm water and a soft cloth. Never use abrasive, ammonia
or citrus based cleaners because they will damage the acrylic. Chemicals in some cleaners may have react negatively with the chemicals
used to maintain water chemistry.
Caring for the Cabinet Panels
Your spa cabinet is water and weather resistant. It is virtually maintenance free. You will never need to wax, paint or seal the cabinet.
When necessary, rinse the cabinet with water from a water hose equipped with a moderate pressure nozzle. More stubborn dirt can be
removed by rubbing with a damp, soft cloth. Never use abrasive cleaners or a high pressure hose which may scar the cabinet.
Caring for the Pillows
The pillows in your spa are covered in water resistant vinyl. To prevent discoloration, they should be wiped off periodically to remove
chemical residue and treated with a non-alcohol based vinyl protector. Many vinyl protectors are oil based and should be avoided. Using
oil based products will adversely affect water clarity and chemistry which can be difficult to correct. If you are not using your spa for a
prolonged period, pillows should be removed from the spa, dried off and stored. If the vinyl is punctured and the foam is exposed they
should be replaced. Replacement pillows are available from your local dealer.
Caring for the Jets
Many of the jets are interchangeable with other jets that are the same size and can be turned on and off when the jet is rotated. To
prevent damage that can occur when excessive pressure builds up in the plumbing lines, it’s a good idea to leave all of the jets open.
When jets become difficult to rotate, they should be cleaned. With the GFCI in the “off” position, rotate each jet counter clockwise until
it reaches its built in “stop” and gently pull the jet outward, removing it from the jet housing. Place all of the jets in a bucket filled with
equal parts water and white vinegar overnight. Rinse with warm water. Stubborn dirt on the white part of the jet body can be removed
with a soft bristle brush. Do not use steel wool or a wire brush. You should clean your jets each time you drain your spa. If the white jet
body on the back of the jet is damaged it should be replaced. Replacement jets are available from your local dealer.
Caring for the Lights
The lense cover over the underwater light is permanently installed. Do no attempt to remove the lense cover. When the spa has been
drained, wipe the light lense with a cloth designed for cleaning eye wear to prevent scratching the lense cover. If the other side of the
large underwater light is also dirty, remove the cabinet panel, remove the bulb from the lamp holder and wipe with a cleaner and cloth
designed for cleaning eye wear. Replace the bulb. Make sure the bulb was properly replaced and the light works before reinstalling the
cabinet panel. If you need a replacement bulb, please call your local dealer.
Do not attempt to clean the back sides of the perimeter lighting lense covers.
Caring for Audio/Video Systems
If your spa is equipped with an audio or video system,you will hear your selection from the built in speakers. You should wipe chemical
residue from the speaker covers with a soft cloth to prevent discoloration. The sub-woofer is enclosed in the spa cabinet and does not
require routine maintenance. The built in audio/video components and docking station compartment should be cleaned with a soft, dry
cloth. While you are outside the spa, place your selection in the player, push play, and select the volume from the device. Before you
enter the spa, plug in your MP3 player and place it in the docking station. Close the docking station door for your safety and to protect
your device.
Never place your MP3 player or other electronic devices on the side of the spa.
Never handle audio/video devices while inside the spa.
Never use headphones in the spa.
Caring for the Spa Cover
The foam cores in your spa cover are designed to protect your spa from the elements, reduce heat loss, keep unwanted debris out of
the spa, and to prevent evaporation. You should clean the vinyl with a small amount of mild dish soap diluted in warm water and a soft
sponge 3 or 4 times a year. Allow to dry and wipe with an oil free, non-alcohol based vinyl protector. Many vinyl protectors are oil based
and should be avoided. Using oil based products will adversely affect water clarity and chemistry which can be difficult to correct. Using
alcohol or chlorine based cleaning products will cause the stitching to deteriorate and damage the UV inhibitors built into the vinyl. The
locking tie downs are not designed to keep the cover in place in heavy winds. You should consider using wind straps to stabilize the
cover and protect the spa. Use the handles to remove and replace the cover. The cover is sturdy but should never be dragged and is not
designed to hold heavy weight loads. Heavy snow loads should be brushed off with a clean soft bristle broom. Never stand on or allow
children or pets on the spa cover. When the spa is not in use, the cover should be locked in place with the tie downs.
