Swim Spa Cabinet Care

The swim spa series cabinets are made of 
Duramaax™, a high quality alternative to wood 
that is virtually maintenance free,  requiring 
no staining, sealing, or waxing.

 To clean the swim spa cabinet, rinse dirt and 
dust regularly with clear water. To remove 
stubborn dirt, grime, and mild discoloration, 
wash with a mild detergent and warm water.

Swim Spa Surface Care and Cleaning 

Your swim spa shell surface is made of acrylic. 
A minimum amount of care and cleaning will 
keep it looking new for years.

Use a spa cleaner for residue and lime buildup 
at the water level. It may be necessary to lower 
the water level 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) before 
cleaning to avoid polluting the swim spa. 
Cleaner can be applied to the acrylic surface 
with a soft cloth and wiped clean. Use a non-
abrasive mild dish washing detergent such as 
Ivory®Liquid. Rinse well and dry with a clean 
cloth.

NOTE: Do not allow the acrylic surface to 
come in contact with products such as 
acetone (nail polish remover), nail polish, 

dry cleaning solution, lacquer thinners, 
gasoline, pine oil, orange oil, citrus based 
cleaners, etc. 

Remove dust and dry dirt with a soft, damp 
cloth. Clean grease, oil, paint and ink stains 
with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol diluted with 
water. Avoid using razor blades or other sharp 
instruments that might scratch the surface.

Underwater LED Lights

The underwater LED light assemblies are 
serviceable from the inside the swim spa 
cabinet. Remove the side panel and insulation 
closest to the light; locate the bracket that 
holds the LED assembly. Turn the LED Holder 
90 degrees counter-clockwise; remove from 
bracket. Pull bulb straight out and replace. 
Insert LED holder back into bracket and turn 
90 degrees clock-wise to secure. 

Bluetooth/MP3 Audio System Option
CAUTION: Audio/MP3/Cell Phone/Portable 
Electronic Devices
Many consumers own some form of portable 
electronic device, and some spas come 
equipped with systems designed to interface 
with these devices. It is important to protect 
a spa’s audio equipment and your portable 
electronics by following a few simple 
procedures:

- Always turn the volume down on your 
portable electronic device before connecting 
it to the spa audio system.
- Do not attempt to handle any portable 
electronic device with wet hands.
- Inspect any area for moisture before setting 
your portable electronic device in or on it.

Never use abrasive cleaners.

Protect Swim spa finish - always keep cover 

on the swim spa when not in use.
