The Benefits of a Hot Tub Cover
Andy Inman @ 2016-04-07 11:08:10 -0700Your hot tub is meant to be a place for fun and relaxation, and it's important to take care of the investment you've made in it. Whether you have an indoor or outdoor hot tub, purchasing a hot tub cover is a good idea. If you already have a cover, you may want to consider upgrading it.
The Benefits of Hot Tub Covers
A spa cover can prevent dirt, leaves, insects, and other debris from getting inside, which will make it easier to clean your spa. In addition, your filter won't get as dirty and won't have to be changed as often.
Covers can also help prevent accidents and give you peace of mind about your hot tub. If your spa is covered, it reduces the chance that a child or pet could fall in. Getting one with a lock is a great way to make sure no one is using your hot tub when you're not home.
Another important benefit covers offer is insulation. Covers make it easier for the water to heat up, so investing in one can help you decrease the amount it costs to run your hot tub.
Types and Applications
There are both hard and soft hot tub covers available to choose from. Soft, rolling covers made from vinyl and foam are a great option for indoor hot tubs. These covers come with a plastic vapor barrier which helps with insulation, and they're easy to put on and take off. However, they probably won't provide as much protection as a hard cover.
Hard covers with hinges are often a good option for outdoor hot tubs as they're better at providing protection from the elements. They tend to be sturdier, which makes them ideal for preventing accidents. Whichever type you choose, take the thickness and quality into consideration.
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.
