One of the most commonly asked questions is “Can I use my Auto Cover as my Winter Cover”

The answer is yes, however, there are some precautions you must take in order to prevent any damage to the cover and track.

Over the winter you need to maintain the proper water level, which is halfway up the skimmer. This is very important because as we see snow and ice fall on the cover it puts a lot of stress on the cover and track. Not having the pool level accurate can lead to the cover and possibly the track being pulled in.

Never open the cover with snow and ice on it. This can damage the mechanism and track. With below freezing temps it puts a strain on the cover so it should never be opened in the middle of the winter season. As the temperatures rise, and snow and ice start to thaw, it is very important that you check the water level on the first nice Spring Day.

You can leave your pool cover pump out all winter so it is ready to remove the water in the spring.

An automatic pool cover is a great thing to have! However, during the winter months it is very important to properly maintain and treat your cover. If you would like to avoid all the required maintenance, a Winter Mesh Cover might be a better option. With the mesh cover, the auto cover will be rolled up for the winter, while the mesh cover – covers the entire pool.

By just looking at a spa, it’s very difficult to assess its jets and what they will deliver. First and foremost, don’t be fooled by appearances. Often, the jets can be the “sizzle” that’s meant to impress just by the way they look. For instance, you might see a wide variety of dazzling metal trim sizes surrounding the jet opening, but they might be window dressing.

• Look Closer
  Is there variety in the actual diameter of the jet opening (not the outer diameter of the trim) or all they all the same?
• Do different jets provide different types of massage actions (pulsating, rotating, etc.)?
• If there are larger jets or a large number of jets, is the pump powerful enough to move water through them properly?After all, when you visit your spa every day, you should expect and get relief where you need it.Where do you store stress in your body? Lower back? A tight hip? Your neck? Feet? One of the great reasons to own a spa is to release the tension that accumulates throughout your body. So make sure the jets are placed to give you relief right where you need it.Based on years of testing and innovation, Caldera spas are designed with many different jet sizes and types (not just different trim sizes) that deliver a massage based on the part of the body where they’re focused. Larger, more powerful jets are positioned to provide a deeper massage to large muscle groups where tension tends to accumulate. Others provide a gentler massage for areas that need a lighter touch. Some offer a pulsating or rotating water flow that can help knead the tension from tired muscles.
  As a result, you can get a customized, personal massage experience, literally neck to toe. It’s like a daily muscle meditation.
  It’s All About You…So Customize!
  Make sure the jets you’re considering allow you to customize your massage. By adjusting water flow and volume through the jets, you can design a purely individual. In some cases, certain jet types are interchangeable, which allows you to customize even more. From the wide, single opening of our Euphoria jet that can deliver a deep-kneading muscle massage to small jets for the soles of your feet, we construct spas with up to eight different jet types, all placed to give you the best results. In fact, we believe configuring jets and jet types is something of an art form. We’ve done it to create the ideal therapeutic or relaxing massage AND to let you customize the direction of flow of water in a way that works for you.
  If you’re in the market for a new spa, remember how important the variety of jet types and configurations are. But also remember that no matter what types of jets or how many jets a spa has, they are of little use if the jet pump that moves the water through them is inadequate to deliver a high-quality massage.
  How Many Jets Do I Really Need?
  There’s no easy answer to that question. The number of jets you need or want really depends on your preferences, the size of the spa and the number of people who will use it at one time. Most important of all, what do you want to get from a spa massage? Are you a runner, tennis player or do other activities and would really benefit from a hamstring massage? What about your calves? Your feet? Will your trouble spots be well attended to?
  More is not necessarily better. It’s a personal decision, so spend time thinking about what’s most important to you.
  Before purchasing, check the jet pump specs and make sure you take a test soak. As you compare, just remember: you can always get a gentle massage from a powerful pump, but you’ll never get a deep, thorough massage from an inadequate pump.

We truly believe it will. At Caldera Spas, we believe it because we live it, and 20-minute renewal is part of our daily lives. From personal experience, we believe that 20-minutes a day can help you release tension, relax muscles and let go of all the clutter in your head. Science seems to concur. Recently, studies have emerged on the effects of spa use—also called warm water immersion—particularly in 20-minute intervals. Two researchers—Dr. Bruce Becker of Washington State University and Dr. Doreen Stiskal of Seton Hall University—have focused studies around 20-minute sessions. According to Dr. Stiskal, “the body gains the maximum benefit of warm water therapy within 20 minutes.”

Dr. Becker has conducted many studies, all focusing on immersion of 20 – 24 minutes with a temperature range of 94°– 102°. His observations include the following:

• The buoyancy of the water relieves gravity and takes pressure off joints, providing relief to arthritis sufferers.
• Immersion in water makes the respiratory muscles work harder by 60%, strengthening and building endurance in the muscles associated with breathing.
• A 20 – 24 minute warm water immersion affects the nervous system in much the same way as meditation. Dr. Becker’s research points to 20 minutes as the ideal length of time spent immersed. Soaking longer is fine, but the benefits don’t increase after 20 minutes. As always, be sure to stay hydrated no matter how long you decide to stay in.

We suggest you try using your hot tub daily and consistently for a week or more and pay attention to how you feel, how you think, whether you feel more flexible and relaxed. After all, the results of your own personal investigation are what matter most.

Whether you pay attention to them or not…you’ve got about 600 muscles. They reward you when they are warm and nourished, and seem to punish you when they’re not. Bottom line, how you care for your muscles will likely determine how ‘young’ you live…or how old you act. Learn more with Scott Iverson.
