Winterizing your investment
If you decided to purchase one of these models, then you must know how to take care of it. In order to do that, apart from the mandatory cleaning and maintenance, you need to cover it up every time you are done using it.
The covers are the most important accessories for your new acquisition, and in a minute we will see why.
Things to consider when buying a cover
- Climate
- Vapor Barrier Quality
- Shape
- Dimensions
- Budget
- Price
Having a cover for your Jacuzzi will prolong its life, giving you have more time to enjoy it. Among the benefits of using a cover are:
It is a great insulator
An ideal cover will help you protect your investment against heat loss, which happens when heat rises from the water. By preventing the heat loss, you will help the water heat up faster, a simple process that will reduce the costs of electricity.
It protects your tub
Another benefit you’ll get from using the cover is that the water will have no leaves, dirt as well as other debris because it is stopping them from falling inside. The cover is indirectly giving you more time to enjoy it and less time spent cleaning.
The covers also protect the top from damage resulted from extreme weather conditions, so you should be choosing one that is long enough to prevent the edge of the tub from being exposed to direct sunlight or other weather conditions.
It keeps everyone safe
While protecting your tub, the covers also protect you and your family. It is quite simple actually if you choose the right one that is heavy and large, your children or pets will not be able to access the tub when is not in use.
Apart from taking care of the cover situation, you should care for your investment, just like any other of your things. You should keep the covers clean, and conditioned to help extend the life of the cover.
For example, for vinyl covers, try using a cleaner and conditioner special made for vinyl, one that is not petroleum based. For others made of different materials use mild soap along with a soft nylon brush. In conclusion, even if you use a cover to keep your tub safe, you should not neglect cleaning and maintaing it as well. It is an endless cycle here, people!
