13.5 Maintaining the Hot Tub Cabinet
The hot tub cabinet require little or no maintenance of any kind. To clean,
wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild detergent soap solution.
CAUTION: Never spray cabinet with a high pressure
garden hose for any reason since this action may induce
an electrical short in the hot tub’s electrical equipment.
13.6 Maintaining The Cover
Using the Sundance insulating hot tub cover anytime the hot tub is not
in use will signicantly reduce your operating costs, heat-up time, and
maintenance requirements. To prolong the life of the cover, handle it
with care and clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic
treatments with a special conditioner developed for Sundance hot tub
covers will help protect against deterioration caused by U.V. rays from
the sun. Never allow anyone to stand or sit on the cover, and avoid
dragging it across rough surfaces.
13.7 Winterizing
Your Sundance hot tub is designed to automatically protect itself against
freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing
temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the
electrical supply to the hot tub has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter
cold weather (less than -20°F) verify standard mode is selected (Section
11.3, page 37) to protect the hot tub from freezing.
If you do not intend to use your hot tub, or if there is a prolonged power
outage during periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important
that all water be removed from the hot tub and equipment to protect
against damage from freezing.
For expert winterization of your hot tub, contact your authorized
Sundance Spas dealer. In emergency situations, damage can be
minimized by taking the following steps:
CAUTION: Turn off power to hot tub.
1. Follow the directions on page 44 for draining the hot tub.
2. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means
necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and
into the footwell.
