Cover lifter advice
« on: November 04, 2021, 05:34:06 pm »
We are likely to be buying a Jetsetter LX tub and are in a quandary about which cover lifter to choose. The tub will be placed in a corner of our screened porch - as you stand in front of the control panel (centered on one of the long sides), the far right corner of the tub will be in the porch corner, so the cover will lift from right to left.

Hot Spring offers four different cover lifters, with minimal information on their web site about each one. We're not concerned about clearance on the hardware side during operation, but do worry about having to reach around to undo a lift lock. Initially the dealer suggested the Uprite lift but he is now recommending the Cover Cradle II. We haven't been able to see either of these lifts in person, so I'd appreciate any comments from experience with them (or maybe a different one?). Thanks.

If space isn’t a issue the cover cradle all day before the upright one. More reliable and easier to take cover off. The upright is a good option if you are short on space
