What is an average lifespan of a hot tub cover?
A hot tub cover's lifespan can vary depending on a number of variables, including the cover's quality, how often it is used, how much sunlight and harsh weather it is exposed to, and how well it is maintained. A well-made hot tub cover may typically last between 3 and 7 years with the right upkeep. The longevity of the cover, however, may be shortened if it is made of shoddy materials or is exposed to adverse weather. Hot tub covers should be periodically cleaned and maintained, kept out of direct sunlight for extended periods of time, and shielded from inclement weather...

How important is my hot tub cover for energy savings?
Many people make the mistake of replacing their spa cover years after it should be done- when it is literally falling apart. Once a spa cover begins absorbing water in the core (and is heavier than it should be!) you will lose heat retention, thus spending more money to heat your spa. Our top rated insulation has proven to save up to $80 / year in electricity costs vs. old covers.
Can hot tub covers melt?
Our Spa Cover foam cores are made from expanded polystyrene, or EPS. EPS is a tough and rigid closed-cell foam. This is important as the closed-cell foam retards water absorption and helps the spa cover live its longest possible life.Foam density not only plays a large roll in the overall insulating ability, but also in the longevity of the spa cover foam core. Increasing the foam density is the primary component that determines the cover strength and how much water / melting snow it can hold before it cracks or breaks. When something is placed on top of a spa...
Why do hot tub covers go bad?
The primary reason a hot tub cover goes bad is water absorption into the insulation core. This happens for two reasons: Low Quality Materials and Poor Chemical Care. Many spa covers sold on the internet utilize a “mesh bottom” which is a cheap material that allows for water absorption over time. MySpaCover utilizes a 11oz PVC Coated Poly for maximum insulation protection. We also utilize a 6mil plastic wrap vapor sealed to the insulation core. Our competition uses a 2 mil wrap and often is sealed just using tape, allowing water to enter the insulation.
Our Quality
It is easy for a website to claim they have the best quality but at MySpaCover we guarantee it. We utilize only the highest quality materials and the most sophisticated processes to offer the best covers available online. Here is how our covers compare to the competition:
MySpaCover
Our heavy-duty handles come standard and are double stitched using marine grade vinyl to ensure the highest durability and most attractive aesthetics.
Our standard straps are double stitched and are also produced with marine-grade vinyl.
We double stitch every seam and hinge to ensure your spa cover can be used for years to come.
Other Guys
Their cheap handles are more prone to wear and tear and are known to rip off within the first two years plus the appearance speaks for itself.
Our competition uses low-quality straps that are prone to breakage and often times do not match the color of the spa cover.
Their use of single stitching and exposed shells can ultimately cause cracking and heat loss, costing you more on your electric bill.
The Underside
The underside of a spa cover is often overlooked. However, this is the material that is in constant contact with high temperatures and the chemicals in your spa. The life of your spa cover depends on a high-quality spa underside. We don’t cut corners like the other guys so you can trust that our 6 mil plastic wrap is vapor sealed to the core and will keep the heat out.
MySpaCover utilizes an 11oz PVC coated poly that, after years of rigorous testing, has proven to be the best possible material to withstand constant high temperates and chemical exposure.
Beware of mesh bottoms used by competitors as this type of material is meant to cut costs and is prone to failure.
