WARNING
THIS COVER IS NOT A SAFETY COVER AND IS NOT DESIGNED TO HOLD WEIGHT. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO BE WALKED ON, STOOD ON OR SAT UPON.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY does not apply to:

• Failure to provide reasonable periodic maintenance. (See Cover Maintenance Below)
• Normal fading and minor deterioration of exterior surfaces and thread.
• Direct exposure to any chemical or abrasive material, such as chlorine, petroleum, paint thinners or acids.
• Torn tie downs or handles due to failure to disconnect from spa cabinet before lifting cover or due to failure to remove snow from top of cover before lifting cover.
• Misuse, abuse, negligence, accident or alteration.
• Excessive use of chemical substances for water purification purposes causing “gassing-off” effect.
• Chafing or wearing holes in cover by dragging on rough surfaces or storing against sharp objects.
• Foam and metal support breakage or tearing of vinyl from applying excessive weight on the cover caused by water, snow, animals, acts of God or abuse.
• Water between liner and foam, this is normal which is why there are drain holes in the liner.

COVER MAINTENANCE

• It is proper cover care to clean and condition your spa cover at least once a month.  When washing your cover, use a soft bristle brush and clean with a mild solution of dish washing liquid.  Rinse thoroughly with water.  If vinyl is not kept clean and conditioned it will deteriorate prematurely and become brittle.  This is not repairable and is NOT covered under warranty.  It is important to apply a high quality vinyl protectant such as 303 Vinyl Protectant after cleaning your cover. (DO NOT use Armor All) 

• Avoid exposing cover to excessive chemicals.  Opening your cover often will allow accumulated chemical vapors to dissipate, maintaining the integrity of the vinyl.  Always remove cover from spa when adding chemicals and leave your cover off for 20 to 30 minutes after to allow chemical vapors to dissipate.  Also, turn the cover upside down on your spa for a few hours at least twice a year allowing the Sun to fully dry out the underside of the cover which will prolong the life of your cover.     
• If your foam inserts become cracked, heavy or water logged, they should be replaced immediately to avoid further damage to your cover. 

A cover lifter mechanism would greatly enhance removal and storage of your spa cover.
