A Guide To Choosing The Best Hot Tub Covers

You can often tell how well maintained a hot tub is by looking at the cover that’s on it. If the cover fits well and is properly secured to the hot tub, then most likely the spa is very well maintained. On the other hand, if the hot tub cover is the wrong shape for the spa it’s installed on, or it doesn’t fit very well, then the hot tub is not being maintained properly.

We wanted to help our readers do a better job of maintaining their hot tub by writing this guide. Collectively, we know that people have ill-fitting covers on their pool not out of negligence, but because they haven’t bought the right type of cover or don’t know how it should be properly installed. And this guide is going to address those problems immediately.

Choose A Type Of Cover

As promised, the first section in this little guide is one that explains how to buy the cover for your hot tub. In our opinion, the best covers not only fit well but have unique characteristics that can help the cover keep debris out of the hot tub or solve other problems.

The first step in choosing a hot tub cover is to choose the right one for your needs. When it comes to pool covers, there are four different types available and these include soft covers, hardshell covers, solar covers, and seasonal covers. Let’s take a look at each of these cover types more closely.

• Soft Shell Covers – These are the cheapest and easiest covers for most people to use. They are made from vinyl and can be unrolled easily to cover the hot tub. Due to their delicate nature, however, these covers are probably not suitable for outdoor hot tubs. They are more suited for hot tubs that are used indoors.
• Hardshell Covers – These are the type of covers that many people are going to want to use for outdoor hot tubs, especially when they’re being closed for winter. They are heavier than soft-shell covers, which makes them harder to install, but they are extremely durable and will hold up to just about any weather conditions.
• Solar Covers – Solar covers are not a long-term covering solution, but they do have their place in the hot tub owner’s supply arsenal. When used during sunlight hours, these covers can help to reduce water evaporation and heat loss in the hot tub. Solar covers reduce energy costs by up to 70% and reduce hot tub chemical use by almost 40%. This not only means increased energy savings but also savings on hot tub chemicals that need to be used.
• Seasonal Covers – These hot tub covers are designed for people who live in colder climates. Climates that get a lot of cold, snow and ice. These covers are designed to fit not only on top of the hot tub like a lid but are designed to encase the entire hot tub. This prevents the hot tub from being damaged by large ice or snow accumulations or freezing conditions.

Some Hot Tub Cover Buying Tips

The next step to choosing the best hot tub cover is to keep a few other things in mind. Below are some of our recommendations for buying a great cover for your hot tub. A cover that will keep debris out of it and protect it against the weather.

• Choose The Density Of The Foam Core – The density of the foam core will determine how well the cover insulates the hot tub. The higher the foam density, the more insulation it will provide. Most experts agree that a cover should have a foam core density of at least 1.5 pounds, more if the hot tub is in a colder climate. Of course, this recommendation doesn’t pertain to solar covers because they have no foam at all and keep the hot tub cool using thermal action.
• Choose A Heavier Pool Cover – The one way that a person can tell if a hot tub cover is a quality one is by looking at its weight. If the cover has a high weight per square yard, then it’s likely to be quite thick. Most quality hot tub covers are nice and thick because they’re made with a marine-grade vinyl that holds up well to chemicals, rain, sun, and wind.
• Choose A Quality Brand – Consumers should be wary of hot tub covers that are made by lesser-known companies, especially companies that are selling these covers at a steep discount. There’s just no way that a hot tub cover that costs under $30 is going to be capable of doing the job it was designed to do. For a quality hot tub cover, consumers should look for a cover in the $40 to $400 price range. Covers in this price range are of the highest quality, with the best ones being on the higher end of the price spectrum.
• Measure The Hot Tub Properly – Before buying a new hot tub cover, it’s important to properly measure the hot tub to ensure that it fits the hot tub correctly. The square hot tub should be measured from lip-to-lip and then 1/2-inch added to the final measurement. This will give the consumer 1/2-inch to properly install the cover on the hot tub.
  The skirt also needs to be measured. Although the cover’s skirt length is mainly cosmetic, it is important to not allow the skirt to be too long. If it’s too long, then it can bunch up around the base of the hot tub, which could allow moisture to build up. If the hot tub has a rail, then measure from the top of the wood rail to the bottom of the hot tub’s acrylic. If no wood rail is present, then measure from the top of the hot tub to the bottom of the spa lip; Add 1/2-inch the measurement to give the cover a little bit of leeway.
