When To Replace Your Jacuzzi Hot Tub Cover
|
The first sign that your cover is in need of replacing is when the rain begins to accumulate on the top of the cover. This happens because the foam has begun to sag and so it absorbs water and then gets heavy and sags. When this occurs there will be heat loss and if you leave it like this you are going to waste money on heating costs. Its better to replace soon. You will also see a bow where the cover gets folded caused from the foam that has become warped which stresses the stitching at the center. Over time the vinyl will actually rip. Eventually the cover will become so heavy from absorbing water that you wont be able to move it. The zippers will begin to split and the stitching will let go. There are a variety of style choices: 1. Winter CoverThis is actually a cover that encompasses the entire acrylic shell keeping your spa safe through the harsh winter months. If you are on e of the few that do not use their spa during the winter you will want to invest in a winter cover to ensure no freezing occurs in the pipes or shell which could cause cracking.2. Roll Up CoverThis is a unique cover that is made from redwood slats with a foam backing. Its almost strong enough to walk on yet it is easy to remove and roll up. Its a great choice for deck installations.3. Walk On CoverThis is the best style on the market. The foam is thick and dense and covered with a vinyl exterior shell. It is strong enough and thick enough to walk on. And it is designed to provide several years of use so you really do get your investments worth.4. Thermal Spa BlanketThis blanket will help you save money on your heating costs. Its a great option for use on outside spas in the winter months. And it works on indoor spas too. Energy isnt cheap these days so any savings are welcomed. Three popular Jacuzzi choices include 1. Cover CaddyThis gas shock cover is very easy to remove. It mounts on the back of your spa so you can easily raise it and slide it into the support braces.2. ProlifterAlso has gas shocks which make it easy to handle and it has a locking nut for that added level of security.3. Mount Cover LiftMakes handling your spa cover a piece of cake. The manual lift mounts on the base of the spas skirt. Investing in a Jacuzzi hot tub cover is one of the smartest investments you will make. You spent thousands of dollars on your spa why not spend just a little more to improve the safety of the area, reduce your energy costs, and help keep it clean.
