No, but I bloody well will by the time we touch down in the Penal Colony.

Edit- I learned it!!!!

Here, let me sing it for you....



Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong

Under the shade of a coolibah tree

And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled

You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me


Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda You'll come a waltzing matilda with me And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me

Down came a jumbuck to dri-ink at that billabong

Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee

And he sang as he stuffed that jumbuck in his tucker-bag

You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me


Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred

Up rode the troopers, one, two, three

"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag?"

You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me


Up jumped the swagman and sprang into that billabong

"You'll never take me alive!", said he

And his ghost may be heard as you pa-ass by that billabong

You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me....

How'd I do?

I've had my HS Vanguard spa for about 2 months and my cover has already begun to show signs of bleaching on the underside of the cover. I didn't think this was due to the ozonator but rather the heat and chemicals...

Definitly not the heat, the chemicals can definitly damage the cover but the chemicals are in the water not the "air lock" under the cover.  Because ozone is a gaseous form, it is most likely the ozone especially in 2 months time.

Chemical gases will actually "burn" the cover and cause it to get a "ripple" effect to it, as it will affect the vinyl.

If ozone bleaches out the pillows and the cover  would it be better to not have ozone and just sanitize with chemicals? Anybody else having problems like this with their spas? Is ozone benifical enough to warrent it damaging parts of the spa? What little bit I've learned about spas and ozone it's my understanding that there are different kinds of ozone systems. What kind of ozone system is in the hs and vita spas?

I use that protectant (303? something like that) on the pillows and it seems to help.  Just a thought...

I'm now wondering if others are having a discoloration problem with the underside of their spa covers as well...

I just thought that this was a normality with the cover being in that environment.

Do you use the protectant on the underside of the cover? Do you use it on the pillows too?
