Match Your Climate
You will definitely have to consider the ability of the swimspa cover to withstand the specific climates when it comes to using it. It is important to have a model that can stand up to the climate in your area. There is no point of getting a model that would not even last for long before showing signs of wear and tear.
Those who live in areas that are cold and rainy, then you need to find a model that can withstand the specific weather condition. For those who experience all the four seasons in a year, then you also have to get one that withstands all the changing conditions.
Vapor barrier quality
The model that you pick should also come with vapor barrier for your hot tub. The vapor barrier is the portion of the cover that is in charge of providing the foam cores coating so that water does not permeate through the insulation. This is BS. If the swim spa cover has a foam core it is going to get heavy. There is no “vapor barrier” on the planet that will prevent that from happening.
The only swimspa covers that can avoid this do not have foam in them. Don’t fall for the “Vapor Barrier” BS.
Dimensions and shape
This is another important aspect that you have to keep in mind. As much as you would be looking to get a deal on the cover, you have to make sure that it covers the swimspa adequately. Also consider the shape of the swimspa as it affects which cover you have to choose. There are companies that can make custom swimspa covers for you, but they might be a little bit expensive. That said, having a swimspa cover that doesn’t fit properly is going to end up costing you a lot more in energy bills.
Price or budget
Well, definitely these two always go hand in hand. You will always have a budget in mind and then there is the price at which the product retails. It is always important that you consider these two before making up your mind. Take the time to check out if the model you are buying is worth spending your money on it.
Conclusion
There are many choices to consider when it comes to swimspa covers. Right now, with what is going on across the country the other thing to consider is the availability. Swimspa covers with foam cores are typically being made overseas. Shipping delays have put getting them back in stock several months out. SwimSpa Covers made in the USA are going to be a safer bet. Take the time to find one that delivers on your needs for a swimspa cover.
