On my spa leaflet and on the user manual, I see that it says 5 years warranty on the shell with a pro rata. What does that mean?
The pro rata is the period of time the consumer used the spa (from the delivery date)
For example
5 years = 60 months
Spa received on April 1, 2022
Replacement of the spa following a problem in April 2024
2 years of use = 24 months
Purchase cost: $5 000 before taxes
$5 000 / 60 months = $83.33
Prorated usage: $83.33 x 24 months = $2 000
Therefore, there is a pro rata of $2 000 to pay to have a new spa.
The spa cover is never included in a spa exchange.
