Water collecting on bottom of cover?
« on: October 26, 2006, 10:30:45 am »
I noticed when I opened my cover a fair amount of water was clinging to the bottom.  Is this normal?  Obviously when I opened the cover it all ran down onto the ground.  Just wondering if it's normal to collect like that...

I consider it normal- it's evaporating and condensing on the underside of the cover.

I too have a proble with condensation under the cover.  Acoompanied by mold along the outer perimiter.   :(
I'm going to try the scum line cleaner on it to try to get it back up to speed...

Mine does that to.  I have heard than you don't get as much condensing if you use a floating spa blanket, but I havn't tried one.
