Care for the Wood Spa Cabinet
When properly cared for, the wood cabinet of your hot tub will maintain its beauty for many years. All woods
react differently to the elements by expanding and contracting. To protect your beautiful wood finish, re-stain it
every 3-6 months with Dimension One Spas’ Redwood or Coastal Gray Stain, which serves as a good sealing
agent for the wood. Please note that the cabinet is not warranted against reaction to natural weather conditions.
The wood must be properly maintained. Should your hot tub cabinet require re-conditioning, try Dimension One
Spas’ Wood Refurbishing Kit.
Special Cold Weather Instructions
Slipping into your steamy water on a snowy, winter night is a refreshing experience. Many times, people who could
never imagine being outside in winter weather, find themselves spending their winter nights doing just that, while
relaxing in their hot tub with family and friends. Therefore, the best winterizing tips of all are to enjoy use of your
system year-round.
All systems manufactured by Dimension One Spas are designed for rigorous winter use. They are insulated to keep
operating costs down and to protect plumbing and equipment whenever the products are operational. Each
product line incorporates freeze protection mode to maintain water circulation during freezing conditions
whenever the system has proper electrical power and water level. Therefore, a fully operational system is your
number one defense against freeze damage.
If you find it completely necessary to drain your water during the winter months, in an area where freezing
conditions may exist, please adhere to all of the instructions in this section to minimize the risk of freeze damage.
Failure to complete any of the steps satisfactorily will increase the chance of freeze damage, as small amounts of
water trapped in pipes will expand as it freezes, and may result in damaged plumbing lines or fittings.
Caution
Dimension One Spas does not recommend that you drain your system for the winter. Freeze damage
caused by winterizing your system is specifically not covered by Your Warranty.
