Choosing the Proper Replacement Spa Covers

Replacement spa covers are an eventual need for your spa or hot tub. While designed to last, over the years the original covers wear from use and exposure to the elements. But that’s okay, because it is protecting your spa from the same elements breaking the cover down.

The good news is that a hot tub replacement cover gives you the opportunity to give a fresh upgrade to your current portable home spa. The covers that come with the original purchase often are the most basic. Replacing just a single item on your equipment can give it a fresh look. Anytime you replace covers you can change the color, style and overall appearance of the whole hot tub.

As part of general maintenance you should be checking your hot tub covers every few months to make sure that it is still in good shape. Make sure it still locks securely and seals well about the tubs. Finally, when the framing becomes loose, the stitching becomes ragged, the seal is warped or the fabric becomes too worn, it is time to replace the covers for all spas.

Look for replacement covers that are well made, with a robust frame and thick, dense foam insulation. Most enclosures are generic in shape. Make sure it is made to fit your home spa or portable hot tub snugly. Look for a tapered design that will easily shed rain or snow. One that locks closed is a great safety feature. And make sure it comes with good warranty.

Finally, look for a replacement cover that has a durable, weatherproof, vinyl fabric with good stitching. This will not only mean your standard or custom spa cover will last, but it will better protect your hot tub, in-ground or portable home spa from the elements for many years ahead.
