Cleaning the Cover
While your vinyl cover is made to withstand the elements, it is important to care for it by keeping
it clean at all times. Many contaminates may stain the vinyl if left on over a period of time. Re-
move stains immediately!
Conditioning the Cover
Conditioning the spa cover monthly will prolong its life. We recommend using ThermoSpas Cov-
er Conditioner. It helps keep vinyl from hardening and cracking, and is especially effective for
covers exposed to harsh outdoor elements like the sun’s ultra-violet rays, snow, and sleet. Cover
Conditioner should only be used on the topside of the cover. To clean the underside of the cover
simply use a garden hose and a 2:1 mix of water and vinegar. You can use bleach, simply spray
and clean the underside and rinse thoroughly. Allow cover to dry.
Note: Do not use petroleum-based vinyl cleaning products because they may be harmful to the
cover and will void its warranty.
1. Apply ThermoSpas Cover Conditioner full strength with a damp sponge or soft brush, make
sure to use gloves.
2. Leave the conditioner on the cover for three minutes. Areas with excessive dirt or residue
build-up may need extra scrubbing.
3. Wipe the cover clean with a damp sponge or cloth.
4. Rinse the cover with water.

Flushing Lines
There are many plumbing lines in a spa. No matter how clean you keep the water, chemicals
clean only the water, not the plumbing lines. Bacteria and mildew-attracting scum can accumu-
late in the vast number of spa plumbing lines and ttings. You need to ush and clean them to
prolong the life of your spa and keep it running smoothly.
Flushing and cleaning needs to be done every 6 months to one year, or if you notice a lm devel-
oping around the spa ttings. You should perform this procedure just before you drain your spa.
We recommend using ThermoSpas Jet Line Cleaner to dissolve the build up of body oils, dirt,
hair, soap, scum, rust and mineral deposits which are the perfect breeding ground for bacteria
and mold.
Note: Some residual foaming may occur, if so, use ThermoSpas Foam Away to suppress foam.
1. Remove lter(s) and clean.
2. Before spa is drained, empty contents (16 . oz.) of ThermoSpas Jet Line Cleaner in to
warm spa water.
3. Turn pump(s) “on” and run jets for 15 minutes. (Ensure lter is not in spa and cover is
closed.)
4. Turn pump(s) and jets “off” and let sit for 1 hour.
5. Turn pump(s) “on” and run jets and blower for 15 minutes.
6. Drain the spa, hosing off the inside walls while draining.
7. Proceed to clean the spa shell as instructed in the “Drain and Rell” section, page 29.
