87 x 87 Hot Tub Cover — Size, Fit and 53 Spas That Take It
A hot tub measuring 87" × 87" takes the AIRCAP 1™ Medium, which fits square spas 86–88". That is the whole answer — but measure your own spa before ordering rather than trusting the size of the cover you are replacing, because cabinets vary between model years and a cover bought to the wrong number is the most common ordering mistake there is.
Measure straight across the top of the cabinet, edge to edge, both ways. If the two numbers differ, use the larger one. If you land between two sizes, round up: an oversized cover overhangs by a fraction, which is how a spa cover is meant to sit, while an undersized one will not seal along the edges.
The AIRCAP 1™ Medium fits square spas 86–88" — $1,195, the same as every other size.

Also rounds up to 87" × 87"
1 more model is not printed as an exact 87" square: one or both sides fall a fraction short. The rule is to round up, so it takes the same Medium.
| Brand | Rounds up to 87" × 87" |
|---|---|
| Bueno Spa | Hollywood (86.5" x 86.5", 0.5" short) |
That makes 87" the 8th most common of the 18 square footprints in the Spa Fitter (53 of 1093, 4.8%); the most common is 84" × 84" with 257. Next door, 86" × 86" lists 24 (plus 6 that round up) and 88" × 88" lists 16. QCA Spas builds more at this size than anyone else — 17 of the 53; its other 32 square models sit at 78" × 78", 79" × 79", 82" × 82", 84" × 84", 85" × 85", 92" × 92".
What if my spa is not exactly 87"?
87" (221.0 cm) sits inside the Medium band — 86", 87" and 88" all take the same cover, so an exact 87" has room on both sides.
The Medium covers everything from 86–88" across, so you do not need to hit 87" exactly. Outside that band, the AIRCAP 1™ comes in six sizes spanning 77" to 94" — the two-measurement guide will place you, or you can look your model up directly in the Spa Fitter.
One limit worth stating plainly: these are covers for square spas. If your cabinet is round, octagonal or a rectangle, no size here will fit it, and the alternatives guide covers what will.
Nearby measurements: 86" × 86" · 88" × 88". Every size from 77" to 94" has its own page, listed on the Spa Fitter.
What an 87" × 87" cover costs
The AIRCAP 1™ Medium is $1,195 — the same price as every other size, including the pump, three Ziptech™ skirt depths and tie-down straps, with free shipping to all 50 states. There is no size surcharge, which is unusual in this category: most makers price a cover by its square footage, so a bigger spa costs more. For how that compares with foam and the other constructions, see what a hot tub cover costs.
It weighs 35–40 lb and, with no foam core to absorb water, never gains weight — the one number a foam cover cannot promise.
