Weird, but I think my cover smells!! :D

Pete, I notice that once and a while and I use a bleach solution to wipe the inside of my cover and around the outside edges of my tub (where it stays wet, but not in contact with bromine). I actually think it is normal, just needs to be wiped down.

I like to use the spa water just after shocking it with dichlor. Just scrub the under side of the cover with a soft brush and super chlorinated water. This should remove the nasty smell. I learned this from hottubpoolboy. It seems to work well for me.
2005 Hot Spring Envoy still going strong. Million-Mile Club....

I want to get in the spa business so I can surf the internet and use Photoshop all day long.
