Product Warranty: Hard Top Insulating Covers
Covered products: Canadian Spa DELUXE covers, Proline ULTRA hot tub covers and our black Oxford fabric factory replacement covers (Okanagan, Manitoba/Gander, Kelowna/Calgary/Montreal and Cornwall).
Warranty period: 2 years from the date of original purchase. Our share of the cost reduces with the cover's age. Original purchaser only, with proof of purchase.
How the warranty works
If your cover stops doing its job within two years of the day you bought it, because of a fault in the materials or the way it was made, we will repair it or replace it. We decide which. You need to be the person who bought it, with proof of purchase.
How much of the cost we pay depends on how old the cover is, worked out from the price you paid. A new cover is covered in full; as it ages, our share goes down and yours goes up. That is what "pro-rata" means, and it reflects normal wear and tear — ordinary ageing such as fading, softening and minor marks is not a fault and is not covered. You always pay delivery both ways.
How much of the cost we pay, month by month
| Months since you bought the cover | Our share of the cost |
|---|---|
| Months 1–3 | 100% — we cover the whole cost; you pay nothing towards the repair or replacement |
| Months 4–21 | 95% falling to 15% — our share drops by about 4.7% each month, at the same steady rate |
| Months 22–24 | 10% — our share never falls below 10% until the warranty ends |
What the warranty covers
- All workmanship and materials, such as seams, handles and straps, for the warranty period.
- Foam cores are guaranteed for the warranty period against water absorption. If your foam should take on water during this period, contact Canadian Spa Company for instructions. Replacement of foam cores does not include shipping or labour charges.
Original PROLINE covers (discontinued)
Original PROLINE (classic vinyl) covers carry a 12-month warranty. Any original PROLINE cover shown to be unserviceable due to defects in materials or workmanship within one year from the date of original purchase will be repaired or replaced, at the option of Canadian Spa Company, without charge for materials or labour (excludes cost of carriage to and from Canadian Spa Company). The warranty covers the original purchaser, with proof of purchase.
Special note about water treatment chemicals
Use of Canadian Spa chemicals is highly recommended. Chlorine in stabilised granular form is the preferred and recommended sanitiser. Other unapproved sanitisers — such as calcium hypochlorite, tri-chlor type chlorine, or any other sanitising chemical that may remain undissolved — will void this warranty.
Sanitiser tabs or pucks are not recommended, because spas sanitised this way are mainly left for extended periods. Hot, steamy chemical vapours then build up beneath the cover and cause premature deterioration. If you use slow-release tabs, wash the underside of the cover more frequently.
Ensure the cover is fully open for 30 minutes after adding shock or other chemicals. Chemical damage is not covered under this warranty.
