Common Questions
Which material should I choose?
If you are trying to choose between the 18oz and 12oz vinyl materials, please choose based on your environment. For regular weather conditions, 12 oz. vinyl is a great material at a slightly less expensive price. If you are going to experience heavy weather conditions such as heavy snow, heavy rain, and lots of wind, then please choose the 18 oz. vinyl material.
What is the most common material?
The 18 ounce vinyl is used to make 90% of the covers ALCO offers. Even though both materials are equally strong and look the same, the majority of customers pick the thicker material.
Are they easy to clean?
Yes. Contrary to other polyester covers that resemble canvas, vinyl is a material that is extremely slick and is therefore simple to clean. Canvas will capture and hold mold and stains that are difficult to remove, as opposed to the sleek ALCO Vinyl custom furniture covers.
How strong are the covers?
18 oz vinyl is a very strong and long-lasting material, in fact, it is the same material that is used on the semi trailers to cover their cargo! As you can imagine, the abuse the material can endure on the highway is extreme, and if they didn't hold up, the truckers would not use them. That is why 18 oz vinyl is one of the strongest covers that you can purchase.
My cover will be used indoors. Which material is ideal?
The 600D material is the perfect material for indoors or even outdoors if its mostly in the shade and not in harsh conditions.
Common Questions
Hot Tub | Spa Covers — Frequently Asked Questions
What do AKON Hot Tub | Spa Covers protect against?
They block rain, snow, UV, dust, tree sap, and pests so your spa cabinet and acrylic shell stay clean and protected when not in use.
Are these soft vinyl weather covers the same as rigid safety/insulating lids?
No. Our covers are flexible, waterproof weather covers for protection. They are not structural safety covers and do not replace a rigid insulating spa lid.
Which material should I choose—12oz or 18oz vinyl?
12oz vinyl is ideal for typical weather at a lower cost. 18oz vinyl adds thickness and abrasion resistance for harsher climates or windy, exposed sites.
How do I measure my spa for a precise fit?
Measure length × width of the cabinet (not the old cover), and the required height drop. If corners are rounded, provide the corner radius; we add minimal slack to all sides (not on height) for a tailored fit.
Can you make covers for round, square, or custom shapes?
Yes. Select the style that matches your spa (square/rectangular/round/oval) or upload a sketch/photo for irregular shapes or cut-outs.
Will the vinyl withstand sun and chemicals?
Yes. Our coated vinyl is UV-stabilised and resists splashes of chlorinated or brominated water. Rinse off chemical residue to maximise longevity.
Are the covers fully waterproof?
Yes. The coated vinyl skin and welded/double hems are 100% waterproof. Add tie-downs to keep the cover tensioned so water sheds and does not pool.
Can I operate the spa with the cover on?
No. Always remove the cover before heating or running jets. Allow steam to vent and the shell to cool before refitting.
What tie-down options are available?
Perimeter grommets for bungees/rope, webbing straps with side-release buckles, or a shock-cord hem for a snug pull-on fit. Choose what suits your setting and wind exposure.
Can you add access features (zipper, flap, or split)?
Yes. Options include front zip access, split panels, or Velcro flaps to reach control panels or charge ports without removing the entire cover.
How do I keep condensation from building up?
Request vent eyelets or mesh vents on opposing sides. These allow air exchange while keeping rain out.
How do I clean and care for the cover?
Wipe with mild soap and water and a soft cloth. Avoid bleach/solvents/abrasives. Store clean and dry if removing seasonally.
What colours can I choose?
Standard colours include black, brown, blue, white, tan, red, navy, yellow, olive green, and grey. Ask about branding or custom colours to match décor.
What’s the lead time and warranty?
Typical lead time is 10–12 work days from order review/confirmation. Vinyl carries up to a 5-year warranty when used as intended.
Can you add branding or text (e.g., “Out of Service”)?
Yes. We can print logos or text. Upload artwork during checkout; we’ll share a proof before fabrication.
