RUGGED SPA COVER INSULATES YOUR SPA AS IT
GUARDS AGAINST ENTRY!
A high quality hot tub spa insulating cover can pay for itself in as
little as 6 months! These spa covers, designed for strength, durability and longevity, are
constructed of the finest materials available. Insulates your spa, while reducing access
to the spa; increasing spa safety.
The inner core of the Deluxe spa
covers are a 1.5 pound density, metal reinforced EPS foam, tapered from 4" to
2" to allow accumulated water to easily run off.
The inner core of the Premier spa covers are a 1 pound density, metal reinforced EPS foam, tapered
from 6" to 4". The Premier spa cover has an insulating factor in excess of R-21.
Many older, and some cheap spa and hot tub covers are made of a flat
foam (or foam with less taper) which allow water to puddle, causing the spa cover to sag,
allowing more water to puddle, eventually breaking the spa cover.
Foam density refers to the weight of a cubic foot of
foam. A 1.5 lb. density is generally the ideal for a 4" thick hot tub cover. It has
excellent strength and insulating ability, yet is light enough to maneuver on and off your
spa. Lesser densities are NOT advised for a cover of this thickness due to it's lack of
strength. With our 6" thick Premier cover, a 1
pound density is more than enough. It provides almost 50% more insulation value
over the 4" Deluxe spa cover, is stronger, yet is
the same weight. Higher foam densities have additional strength, but only slightly more
insulating ability. One of the many spa top options we offer is upgrading to a higher
density foam, if additional strength is needed. These spa and hot tub covers are perfect
for areas of heavy snow, rambunctious children and large dogs (even deer).
The foam is wrapped in a 6 mil polyethylene sheeting
that is heat sealed to prevent water absorption from the underside. Many cheaper
cover manufacturers tape the poly sheeting closed to save costs, but the tape quickly
fails and the cover will start absorbing water, getting heavier and heavier. As an option,
the foam can be doubled wrapped for extra protection from water absorption.
The outer covering of our spa tops is a certified heavy duty
marine grade vinyl which is highly mildew and UV resistant. It was initially developed
as an awning material for the boating industry. It's available in your choice of different
colors and is sewn together with a highly UV inhibited commercial thread
which won't mildew or rot out like some cheaper covers. There's even reinforced handles
for easy removal from your spa and four straps so you can lock the cover
down to your spa.
