5.3
Upkeep of the inside surface of the spa
In order to retain the fine appearance of this surface, apply the following advice:
-
Use common household products that are NON-ABRASIVE for most of the cleaning work. Thoroughly rinse and dry with
a clean rag.
-
NEVER use abrasive cleaning materials.
-
Do not use with products such as acetone (dissolvent), nail varnish, dry cleaning products, lacquers, wood turpentine,
etc…
-
Remove dust and dry dirt with a soft, damp cloth.
-
Clean off grease, oil, paint and ink stains with isopropyl alcohol applied with a soft rag.
-
Avoid using razor blades or any other sharp instrument that could scratch the surface. Small scratches can be removed
by applying a fine coat of polish (for car bodywork) and lightly polishing with a clean cloth. For deep scratches, rub the
surface lightly with water paper of grain size 400 (moisten the paper with water). Finish off with a fine-grained water
compound (1000 or 2000) and apply polish to make the surface glossy.
-
All the accessories of the tank (suction parts, massage jets, deviation valve…) must be cleaned exclusively with a
sponge soaked in water.
-
We recommend always using the isothermal cover for the spas installed outdoors. It provides protection for the acrylic
tank against the variations in temperature between the immersed part and the part above the water level.
If you are not sure whether a particular product is adequate for the surfaces of your spa, consult your authorized dealer.
Furthermore, make sure that any traces of any product used are rinsed off the surfaces of the spa. This could result in
foaming on the surface of the water of the spa.
It is normal, as a result of the thermoforming process used to manufacture the tank, to observe the following features:
-
a slight bleaching of the deepest parts of the tank.
-
a variation in the height of the edge of the spa of ± 6mm.
-
slight undulation on the top part, due to the shrinkage of the polyester reinforcement.
5.4
Upkeep of headrests
If need be remove the headrests and clean them in soapy water with a cloth or soft brush. In the event of shock treatment of
the spa water, always remove the headrests. The headrests can be put back once the sanitation reading of the water drops
below 5 ppm.
Take care to remove the headrests slowly so as not to damage the inserts.
5.5
Upkeep of the spa cover
Covering the spa with its insulating cover when it is not in use will enable a significant reduction in the heating times, the
maintenance demands and the operating costs. The cover has in fact several functions:
-
preservation of calories and saving of energy
-
preservation of the products
-
prevention of pollution
-
safety for young children
-
protection of the acrylic tank
In order to prolong the service life of the cover, handle it with care and clean it regularly with mild soap and water. Never
allow anyone to sit or walk on the cover and do not drag it over rough surfaces.
We recommend always keeping the isothermal cover in place when the spa is not in use.
5.6
Upkeep of the surround made of synthetic material
The synthetic surrounds of your new spa require very little or virtually no upkeep whatsoever. In order to clean them, simply
wipe them will a clean towel soaked in a solution of mild soap and water.
5.7
Winterizing
Under normal operation your spa is designed to automatically prevent the water from freezing. During freezing weather,
regularly check that the power supply is present at all times and in the event of temperatures of extreme cold of under -
29°C, choose the normal skimming/heating mode to prevent the water from freezing.
If you plan not to use your spa or in the event of a prolonged power failure during freezing weather, it is important to drain
all the water from the spa and its equipment in order to protect them from frost damage.
