Tired of Heavy Hot tub Covers?

Did you buy a cover lifter for your Hot Tub and then find out that it doesn't really help when the foam gets saturated? Your not alone. The truth is all rigid foam Hot Tub Covers eventually end up either broken or saturated and heavy.

Years ago there was a woman who because of a severe back injury needed to get into her hot tub. Her doctor had instructed her not to lift more than ten pounds and that she should get hot tub therapy every day. Looking at her own hot tub cover she realized she would have to think of a better way. Necessity being the mother of invention she set out to build something she could use herself.

What she came up with was a design that was both easy to use and durable. Initially she would have been happy with something that kept the leaves out of the hot tub that she could manage herself. Insulation was less important than ease of use. However testing of the new design showed the added bonus of better insulation than the typical rigid foam Hot Tub Covers. The new design allowed for the hot tub cover to rest on the surface of the water so it drastically reduced heat loss from evaporation. With less evaporation the chemicals used to keep the water clear and clean stayed more consistent. With the cover laying right on the water insulation began at the water surface which is important since that is what you’re trying to keep warm.

Using the water to support the Hot Tub Cover allowed the new design to be able to withstand more weight as in snow loads, without collapse as rigid hot tub covers do. Since it uses air to insulate rather than the foam found in typical Hot Tub Covers, the improved hot tub cover could absorb impact better too. So in areas that get brutal hail storms, her hot tub cover would not be damaged while traditional Hot Tub Covers were pummeled.

The new hot tub cover design created a natural dome shape while on the spa causing wind to blow over without creating lift. If you live in an area that gets strong winds you already know that rigid foam Hot Tub Covers will fly. I have seen people try all kinds of things to keep their foam covers on from cement blocks to heavy webbing straps.

Armed with this knowledge she figured that she was not the only hot tub owner that was sick of heavy covers, so she patented the idea and began to market her new hot tub cover. Unfortunately, this was in the days before the internet. Getting the word out required actually getting out and meeting people. She traveled the country doing home shows and fairs. She travelled to hot tub dealers all over the country trying to convince them to sell her covers.

Most Hot Tub dealers were not interested. They make a lot of money selling covers that needs to be replaced every couple years. Others did not want to dedicate any of their limited floor space to show just a cover, especially one that cost more to them than the cheap covers made overseas.

Fortunately, thanks to the world wide web, you can research for yourself and find out all about this innovative design from the comfort of your home. Available right from the factory you can order a cover custom made for your hot tub. If your tired of replacing your hot tub cover with the same old thing, look for the next generation in Hot Tub Covers. The air filled cover that insulates better and lasts longer than any rigid foam hot tub cover. The cover designed by a woman so she could use her hot tub by herself.
