Welcome to our forum.
It looks like that RHTUBS.com sells the sonshine spa covers or the options are the same. Thats the one I was going to order but it says the absorption warranty is only 12 months. So without being bias would the hot tub works cover (made by sunstar) be good to go with or the one by sonshine covers? The warranty just looks better. They both say you must pay freight if it breaks.Also the Hottubworks offers a 2 lb insulation upgrade from 1.5lb for $50. Is that worth it or should I stick with the original one. I have a covermate 2 on my tub.Thanks Guys
Actually, we manufacture our own "line" of spa covers, and a few other online and brick-n-morter store carry them, or variations of them as well. At times WE have made covers for sonshine (although about 6 years ago we did buy covers from them). One of their owners is a very good firend of mine).Again, let me say, since I got into this business around 1980 I don't recall ever seeing a cover that absorbed water due to a manufacturing defect.#2 foam.......... The cover will weight more (about 10% more), though it will also have more strength (about 30% more). #2 foam also will absorb less moisture. Due to it being denser there is less space for moisture to be absorbed into.
