12mm Foam Spa or Hydrotherapy Cover
Our 12mm Cover has been specificlly designed for spas and hydrotherapy pools due to the higher temperatures. By far the most popular cover for these uses in commercial and domestic environments. The fabric again is made from closed cell PE foam, which is laminated and sealed between a strong woven polyethylene top sheet and a clear protective skin. The material at 12mm thick is very dense and will therefore keep light penetration to a minimum and help reduce algae growth, however the main attraction to this cover is to retain much more heat than thinner covers as spas and hydrotherapy pools are kept allot warmer than normal pools. Some benefits of the 12mm Foam Spa and Hydrotherapy Pool Cover:
- For spas and hydrotherapy pools
- 12mm foam centre
- Laminated top and bottom with embossed clear protective layer
- Weighs 0.49kg per sq.m.
- 39?C maximum running temperature.
- Guarantee limited to 1 year due to higher water temperatures and chemicals.

Shaping Charge per sq ft - For any pool that has a shape other than a standard rectangle i.e. Kidney shape - simply work out the sq ft and multiply by the price
What is hemming? Well hemming is an extra strip of reinforced material added to the perimeter of the pool to help seal the ends of the cover to prevent tearing and extend the life expectancy of the cover. Also the hemming creates a more aesthetically pleasing cover.
Step Bay Charge - Standard Roman End prices should all ready be calculated however this is the shaping charge only, you will need to add on the material price which is the area (sq ft) of the step area then multiplied by the price.
