cover lifter
« on: January 10, 2005, 05:29:24 pm »
I am looking for a good deal on a cover lifter, I do not need the best, just one that will work well and not break on me, I am trying to get away as cheap as posable but I would like some input. I am not sure if it matters what tub I have but if so I have a hydropool 738. thanks for a wonderful site

There are multiple options but I'd suggest the Covermate I as a good lifter at a good price. I actually prefer the Covermate III on larger spas as its sturdier and makes opening a big cover noticeably easier but you've indicated price is paramount so I'd suggest the Covermate I.
220, 221, whatever it takes!

huh?

If your dealer sells used/trade-ins and has one with a cover lifter make him an offer.  You never know.

I agree, the covermate I should do and it should only be around $200.

$200 ???????? would a pm on this be considered spam?
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Check out this pricing of a Covermate I.

Click here for the Covermate I

There's lots of people that deal with Roberts Hot Tubs for their spa supplies and it's always great feedback. The item at the bottom of the page looks interesting as well! ;)

I wouldn't think so, just don't call him an ignorant moron or something.  Given your, and our board's good reputation, I'm sure they would appreciate it.

ummmmmmm Bill? Are you thinking of the Covermate 2 Undermount ( http://www.rhtubs.com/coverlifts/cover-mate2.htm )? The covermate3 attaches to either the side of the spa or a deck. The covermate2 has optional undermounting brackets, and YES, you have to slightly lift the spa to slide them under. Installation instructions for the CM2 Undermount can be found here;

Steve, good talking to you last night... and yes, your check is in the mail.

If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.
