Spa Covers

Are your spa covers insulated enough? Covers can make the difference between a high electric bill and a low one. The largest portion of heat escapes your spa through the top, making your heater work harder to keep the water at your preferred temperature. By choosing an insulated spa cover, you can help your heater be more efficient and use less energy.

If your spa came with a cover as most portable ones do, don't assume it's a well-insulated one. Most spa covers are insulated with EPS or Expanded Polystyrene, so you probably don't need to check into the type of material used. The thickness of the EPS matters, though. As a consumer, you need to look at the R-value of the cover. The R-value refers to a material's ability to resist the flow of heat and is based on thickness. It can get pretty complicated, but basically you just need to know that the higher the R-value the better.
