6.8. Cover maintenance

When the cover is not in use, it is recommended that it be kept off the floor so that it remains clean.

The cover should be checked to ensure that it fits snugly, according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, for maximum insulation.

The cover should be stored in a suitable place where it will not suffer or cause damage.

It is recommended that the cover be cleaned both inside and out periodically with an appropriate solution including adequate disinfection (e.g. 10mg/l free chlorine).

Any appropriate system can be installed to ensure that the cover, especially the water facing side, does not come into contact with the ground or any other dirty surface when placed on top of the spa (e.g., a cover lift or a specific bracket attached to the spa).

It is recommended to place the cover in a clean and dry area, otherwise dirt and bacteria may accumulate. It should not be placed on wooden tables or floors because of the risk of discoloration of the wood. A deck hoist, or other similar device will be useful to ensure that it does not come into contact with the floor.
