CARE OF THE HOT TUB PILLOWS

The pillows used in your Limelight

hot tub will continue to provide comfort if treated with care. They have been positioned above the water level

to minimize the bleaching effects of chlorinated water, and other hot tub water chemicals. To extend their life, whenever the hot tub shell is being

cleaned, the hot tub pillows should be removed and cleaned. Body oils can be removed with a mild soap and water solution. ALWAYS rinse off

the hot tub pillows thoroughly to remove any soap residue. The pillows can be conditioned with Hot Spring

®

Cover Shield after cleaning. If the hot

tub is not going to be used for a long period of time (that is during a vacation, or if the hot tub is winterized), or when the hot tub water is being

super-chlorinated, the hot tub pillows should be removed until the next hot tub use. Periodic replacement of the hot tub pillows will be necessary

in order to maintain the new look of your hot tub.

To remove and replace the hot tub pillows:

1. Carefully pull and lift on one end of pillow to stretch pillow (longer) until the pillow is released from the plastic retainer. Once one end is

released, push pillow in opposite direction to remove from other retainer.

2. Align pillow.
3. Slide one end of pillow onto the spa retainer.
4. Pull other end of pillow; using both hands lift pillow above retainer and with a stretching motion slide pillow recess onto retainer.

CARE OF THE EXTERIOR 

HOT TUB SHELL

Your Limelight hot tub has an acrylic shell. Stains and dirt generally will not adhere to your hot tub’s surface. A soft rag or a nylon scrubber should

easily remove most dirt. Most household chemicals are harmful to your hot tub’s shell. Watkins Manufacturing Corporation. recommends

HotSpring FreshWater

®

Hot tub Shine; the only other products which have passed the manufacturer’s tests are Soft Scrub

®

and Windex

®

. Sodium

bicarbonate (baking soda) can also be used for minor surface cleaning. Always thoroughly rinse off any hot tub shell cleaning agent with fresh

water. 

SERVICE NOTES:

1. Iron and copper in the water can stain the hot tub shell if allowed to go unchecked. Ask your Limelight dealer about a Stain and Scale Inhibitor

such as Hot Spring FreshWater Stain and Scale Defense to use if your hot tub water has a high concentration of dissolved minerals.

2.  The use of alcohol or any household cleaners other than those listed to clean the hot tub shell surface is NOT recommended. DO NOT use

any cleaning products containing abrasives or solvents since they may damage the shell surface. 

NEVER USE HARSH CHEMICALS!

Damage to the shell by the use of harsh chemicals is not covered under the warranty. 

IMPORTANT: 

Some surface cleaners contain eye and skin irritants. Keep all cleaners out of the reach of children and use care when applying.

ELMWOOD

TM

HOT TUB CABINET

Limelight hot tubs include an ELMwood hot tub cabinet. ELMwood consists of a rigid polymer that combines the durability of plastic, with the

beauty of wood. ELMwood won’t crack, peel, blister, or delaminate even after prolonged exposure to the elements. 
Cleaning of ELMwood consists of simply spraying the cabinet with a mild soap and water solution to remove any stains and residue.
Do not rub the ELMwood with an abrasive material or use abrasive cleaners, as this may damage its texture.
Watkins Manufacturing Corporation recommends touch-up or restaining of the ELMwood every three to four years (this will vary according to the

environment). Contact your local dealer for restaining procedures and recommended stains.

CARE OF THE HOT TUB COVER

WARNING: 

The vinyl cover is a manual safety cover that meets or exceeds all prevailing requirements of ASTM Standards for hot tub safety

covers when installed and used correctly as of the date of manufacture. Non-secured, or improperly secured covers are a hazard. Open the cover

to its fully open position before use.

VINYL COVER

The vinyl hot tub cover is an attractive, durable foam insulation product. Monthly cleaning and conditioning are recommended to maintain its

beauty.

To clean and condition the vinyl cover:

1. Remove the cover from the hot tub and gently lean it against a wall or fence.
2. With a garden hose, spray the cover to loosen and rinse away dirt or debris.
3. Using a large sponge and/or a soft bristle brush, and using a very mild soap solution (one teaspoon dishwashing liquid with two gallons of

water), or baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), scrub the vinyl top in a circular motion. Do not let the vinyl dry with a soap film on it before it can

be rinsed clean.
