Welcome to our forum.
I keep one side latched down...the other is basically up against a retaining wall. The tub is pretty well isolated from the elements as much as it can be being outside.But I went in it today and when I flipped the cover open I noticed the center section of the cover that hinges and is very thin was covered in frost on the inside of the cover. So there is definitely cold air penetrating somehow

People can either love or hate Hot Spring but they are the industry leader in that aspect when talking the Highlife series. BF makes a lot of claims on there site that are great for marketing purposes but doesn’t mean they are completely true. I think they are a great tub but they go overboard on their claims
