Hot Tub Covers: The “Must Have” Hot Tub Accessory

Spa Covers are essential to maintain hot tub heat, keep out debris, and provide a safety layer to prevent children from unsupervised use. When buying a new hot tub cover, you want to choose a cover that will be insulating, custom fitted and have strong locking straps. Today buying a hot tub cover involves a few options you will want to know about and consider before placing your cover order.

In the past, the early hot tub covers were flat and 2 inches thick. The huge problem with a flat spa cover is that if it is outside, it will suffer the weight of rain and snow, eventually sagging in the middle. Once a hot tub cover is regularly in contact with the water on the inside of the hot tub the constant soaking is going to cause the styrofoam core to absorb water. Your cover becomes almost impossible to remove, even with a cover lifter. Heavy, falling apart spa covers are no fun. You may be replacing yours right now because that cover is waterlogged and weighs a ton. The good news is there have been many design improvements to try and solve the problem of water absorption and collapse. Plus improvements in marine vinyl and UV inhibitors, have increased the life span of the outer vinyl skin of your hot tub cover as well.

These improvements have created more options so ordering a hot tub cover online or even with a dealer will involve making decisions on the thickness and taper of the cover as well as the foam density. Before you order, you might want to get familiar with these options so you can make a good buying decision based on your needs. The following is some help in choosing from the available options for hot tub covers.
