    Rubber parts will eventually dry out,like o-rings and seals.A lot of people store theirs by draining it for the winter.
    Make sure the tub is empty in the piping/jet channels and leave the filter out to dry also
    Leave a little 'breathing room' for the cover ,as water finds a way in the tub .
