If you have a hot tub, chances are your cover is a standard vinyl and foam cover. Those have been the standard for hot tubs since I can remember. If you’re reading this, chances are you need to replace your existing cover. Either because the vinyl is old and broken, or the cover weighs 300lbs because it’s waterlogged. To get a replacement cover you have two options – You can go back to the dealer where you got your hot tub, or you can order it from a company online. I highly recommend you save hundreds by ordering it online.
The only good thing about ordering from a dealer that I can think of is it’s their responsibility to get the shape and size right. But again, you would spend hundreds more compared to ordering online. The most important thing about ordering online is getting the shape and measurements right. The online companies that have been around for a long time and have great reviews make measuring easy. Naturally, we recommend SpaDepot.com. Not only do they have lots of options, but they also offer fabric covers instead of vinyl. Fabric covers are lighter, last longer and stand up to the elements better.
Normal production time on hot tub covers are 4-6 weeks, regardless of where you order from, however like ordering anything now-a-days, you may get it in 2 weeks. If you do order a cover from Spa Depot, do yourself a favor and get their Fabric Spa Cover Care Kit! Using these products is the best way to keep your hot tub cover working and looking great for as long as possible.

If you’re looking for the same vinyl and foam cover you currently have and you live in Western Washington, I recommend checking out NorthwestSwimSpas.com They sell new covers for $599, and they take about 4 weeks to arrive. They are a great company with great people, and they will help make sure you order the right shape and size for your hot tub.
Hope this helps and Happy Hot Tubbing!
