The “You and We” 3 to 5 year Guarantee

It’s simple and realistic

Cot spa covers are handcrafted covers made by skilled men and women who take pride in their work. Of course, we have always warranted against defects in materials and workmanship, and we give you a guarantee like no other in the industry.

Our spa cover is made with superior materials and craftmanship, but it will not last unless it is properly cared for. And that is where you, the customer, come in. 

 

Maintenance Instructions

Why keep the cover clean and conditioned?

Vinyl can be dry and brittle. Not only does it look bad, but dry, brittle vinyl can tear at the seams and stress points. Quality materials, internal sewn reinforcing, and careful workmanship cannot help against the ravages of Mother Nature unless the cover is properly cared for.

Proper care is easy: Once a month, clean and condition the cover according to the maintenance instructions.

Very Important!

We recommend you use 303 Aerospace Protectant or saddle soap on your cover. The product we make is gentle to the vinyl and adds UV blockers and plasticizers back into the vinyl.

Choose a pleasant day each quarter to remove your cover from the spa and lay it on a flat surface convenient to the garden hose. Douse the cover with a healthy amount of water from a hose or bucket to rinse away any loose dirt or debris.

Using a soft bristle brush, scrub the cover clean with a mild solution of dishwashing liquid – (about one teaspoon of soap to two gallons of water). Use a gentle circular motion of the soft bristle brush, being cautious not to let any areas of the cover dry before it can be rinsed with water. Rinse thoroughly.

Now it is time to apply the vinyl conditioner. Use saddle soap or 303 Aerospace Protectant as directed on the container. Massage the conditioner into the cover in a gentle but firm manner.

Before replacing the cover on your spa, wipe and rinse any dirt from the bottom side of the cover. When you are ready, put the cover on the spa. A well cared for spa cover is a thing of beauty in its own right. Again, be sure to clean and condition your cover at least once a quarter more often than needed.

Note: To remove tree sap, use lighter fluid (not charcoal lighter but the type used in cigarette lighters). Use sparingly. Immediatley apply conditioner to that area.

Caution:

Broken foam cores are not covered by the warranty. Do not walk, sit, crawl, jump, place objects, etc. on your cover. (Note: if broken, your cover may absorb water and become heavy). Also you should be aware that you can “burn” and damage the vinyl with improper or severe use of water sanitizers. Sorry, but we cannot warrant these situations.

Please note:
If for any reason, you remove the foam cores from the vinyl encasements – DO NOT leave them exposed to direct sunlight. Also, DO NOT use plastic to cover your spa cover or leave metal objects on top of the cover. On warm days, the heat generated can melt the foam cores inside the cover.

Cot Spa Cover Tips

- If you get a puddle on your cover, unzip the vinyl covering and turn over the foam core. That will probably take care of it! (Sometimes even a new cover will need this).
- Use handles to lift the cover. The tie down straps and the skirt seams can tear if you use them.
- Use 303 Aerospace Protectant to reduce fading and minor deterioration, mostly from the sun.
- Ask your spa dealer about proper water chemistry. It will extend the life of your cover and your spa, and reduce possibility of mildew.
- After a snowfall or ice storm, use a soft broom to remove accumulation from your Spa Cover.
- Apply a light amount of WD – 40 with a Q- Tip to free the Sure-Loc Hardware if they become frozen shut.
- Use Cot’s locking Hold Down Straps for added security and all high wind and storm conditions.
- And by the way, some dogs love to chew on covers.
