Swim Spas represent unique challenges when it comes to covering them.
We can all agree that the swim spa needs to be covered when not in use for all the same factors a hot tub requires a cover. The difficulty is that because of the length of the swim spa and the height of the sides, eliminating and changing the cover can be a lot more difficult.
Getting a brand-new swim spa is an interesting occasion in life. You’re eagerly anticipating the exercise you’ll obtain from using it. Perhaps you’re a little relieved to have actually finally made a selection from the different models you took a look at. At any rate, you probably weren’t thinking much about the cover you would use.
Typically, the cover that gets back with your new purchase will be a 4 area rigid foam filled cover that will split in the center and go off both ends.
No big deal.
Till it starts to get heavy.
Which it constantly does.
Every stiff foam filled Swim Spa Cover ever made ends up the same way and it is not the fault of the user. It’s a style flaw. Built in obsolescence because as soon as it is placed in use over the warm water in your swim spa it is inevitable.
It’s not from rain, so having a taper will not make any distinction. In fact you could have it under a roof and the cover will still get heavy.
The reason is the steam from the water. The molecules of steam are very small as they increase from the water surface. They make their method into the little fractures and crevices in the foam. Then as the steam cools it forms back into a liquid and becomes trapped in the cover.
It occurs gradually and on a Swim Spa Cover which is made of specific sections, at differing speeds. So ultimately you’ll see one or two of the sections are truly getting heavy. The bar lifters on the ends of the swim spa aren’t much aid due to the fact that you still have to raise that heavy cover back up onto the spa which is a lot higher than a regular spa.
This is why SpaCap.com came up with a different design for their Swim Spa Covers
Instead of using numerous foam panels to develop Swim Spa Covers that will eventually end up in some landfill, they created one that uses air chambers that don’t suck up moisture.
In fact SpaCap.com Swim Spa Covers are light-weight, insulate better, will not blow away in a wind storm or be damaged by snow or hail.
Covered with Sunbrella Marine fabric, these covers won’t fade, or fall apart at the joints either. So if you own a swim spa, and you plan to keep using it daily, SpaCap.com has the Swim Spa Cover for it.
