Built in Phoenix. Built for Arizona.

Arizona is not a mild climate.
The sun destroys cheap vinyl.
Heat breaks down weak plastic.
Dark colors absorb more UV.
Poor stitching fails faster.
And shipping a custom spa cover across the country can turn into an expensive headache.
That is why we manufacture our spa covers here in Phoenix, Arizona.
We have been building spa covers in Arizona since 1979, and every cover we sell is made for outdoor use in extreme heat.
How are your spa covers constructed?
Our covers are built with materials tested for Arizona’s climate.
We offer different construction options depending on your spa location, sun exposure, elevation, handling, and the type of cover you need. Every detail matters: vinyl, thread, hinge construction, foam protection, drainage, and color choice.
See the diagram below for a breakdown of the cover construction.
Are you a manufacturer?
Yes.
We cut and sew the spa covers we sell right here in Phoenix, Arizona.
That matters because most companies selling spa covers online are resellers. They do not build the product. They take the order, send it somewhere else, and leave you dealing with shipping problems, warranty confusion, or fit issues.
We are one of the few manufacturers still making spa covers in the United States, and we have been manufacturing spa covers in Arizona since 1979.
If I know the make and model of my spa, will you have the dimensions?
In many cases, yes.
We have a large database of spa cover dimensions and have been the OEM manufacturer for several spa manufacturers.
But we still prefer to talk with you before building the cover. Spa manufacturers often keep the same model name while changing the mold or size over the years. We have seen one spa model name used for more than 20 years with multiple different dimensions.
That is why we are careful.
Call or email us with your make and model, and we will help confirm the right size before your cover is made.
Are your covers recommended for outdoor use?
Yes.
All of our covers are made for outdoor use.
Some companies sell low-priced “economy” covers that are only recommended for indoor use or mild climates. That detail is often hidden in the fine print.
Arizona is an extreme climate. We do not build indoor-only budget covers and pretend they belong in a Phoenix backyard.
How long will your covers last in the Arizona sun?
That depends on sun exposure, elevation, maintenance, handling, and color choice.
But this is where construction matters.
We use marine-grade vinyl, Sun Guard marine-grade thread, blind-stitched hinges to protect thread from direct sun exposure, double top-stitching on the edges, and four layers of material to strengthen the hinge.
Color also matters. Lighter colors perform better in Arizona heat. Almond is the best color for UV reflection.
We have many repeat customers whose covers lasted more than 10 years. Our record is 24 years from a Paddock customer who regularly covered the spa during the summer months.
What prevents water from getting into the cover?
The inside of the cover is just as important as the outside.
We protect the EPS closed-cell foam inserts with clear, pigment-free, UV-stabilized plastic wrap designed to withstand Arizona heat.
We never use black or blue plastic. Colored plastic can deteriorate quickly in hot, dry climates, and black plastic can even contribute to foam melting.
We also heat-seal the plastic. We do not use tape to seal it.
Our covers also include bottom drains so condensation can escape.
I bought a cover online from another reseller and it was damaged in transit. Can you help?
In many cases, yes.
Spa covers are large, custom-made products, and they are easily damaged in transit. The damage is often hidden on the underside of the cover.
Because we are a manufacturer, we can repair many damaged covers for a fee.
That said, we recommend buying local whenever possible. Even if you are outside Arizona, look for a local manufacturer in your area. You will avoid many of the problems that come from long-distance freight shipping.
If a cover must be shipped, ask one important question:
“Will foam be packed around my cover inside the box?”
Foam protection inside the box prevents a lot of freight damage.
I have a warranty problem from another manufacturer. Can you help?
Often, yes.
A warranty is only as good as the shipping terms. If you are responsible for shipping a custom spa cover back to another facility, the shipping cost can be more than the cover is worth.
As a local manufacturer, we can repair many covers for a reasonable fee, especially when the cover is outside its warranty period.
What type of vinyl do you use?
We use marine-grade vinyl.
But not all marine vinyl is equal. The weatherometer rating is one of the most important measurements of vinyl quality.
Our commercial-grade marine vinyl passes 1,500 hours on the weatherometer scale. It is treated to resist mildew, antimicrobial growth, and UV damage.
Will the cover hold up in cold climates?
Yes.
Our vinyl has a cold-crack rating of -20°F.
How do I help my cover last longer in the sun?
Two things matter most:
Shade and choose a lighter color.
All vinyl will eventually deteriorate from UV exposure, but lighter colors reflect more heat. Almond is the best option for Arizona sun.
How do I clean my spa cover?
Use mild soap without de-greasers and lukewarm water.
Vinyl has a protective top coat, so gentle cleaning is best. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing.
What if I measure wrong and the cover does not fit?
Because every cover is custom made to your specifications, accurate measuring is critical.
Your cover cannot be reused for another customer, so please call us if you have any questions before ordering.
You can also bring your old cover to us, and we can measure it for you. In some cases, a dealer can come to your location and measure for a fee.
If a cover is measured incorrectly, we will work with you and provide another cover at 70% of the purchase price.
NO OTHER MANUFACTURER WILL DO THAT!
Why should I buy local?
Because cheap covers get expensive when they fail.
Internet sellers have to absorb large freight costs. That money usually comes out of the quality of the cover: thinner materials, weaker construction, cheaper protection, or less support when something goes wrong.
Buying local gives you better accountability, easier communication, repair options, and a cover built by people who understand Arizona heat.
As Benjamin Franklin said:
“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”
