Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL Replacement Cover
The Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL takes the AIRCAP 1™ Medium — a foam-free replacement hot tub cover for square spas 86"–88". The Malibu EC-754DL's cabinet measures 87" x 87", inside the Medium's range. The cover weighs 35–40 lb for life, costs $1,195, is engineered to comply with ASTM F1346-23, and carries a 3-year limited warranty.

Why the Medium fits the Malibu EC-754DL
The AIRCAP 1™ comes in six sizes covering square spas from 77" to 94". Each size is built to overhang its band slightly — that is how a spa cover is meant to sit — so the Medium, which fits cabinets 86"–88", covers the Malibu EC-754DL's 87" x 87" shell with the right overhang.
At 87" the Malibu EC-754DL sits mid-band in the Medium's 86"–88" range, 1" off the bottom and 1" off the top. No other Cal Spas model in the Spa Fitter has the Malibu EC-754DL's 87" x 87" cabinet. Cal Spas builds the 37 models we fit on 4 footprints, and the Malibu EC-754DL is on number 3 of 4 from the smallest; the line spans 4 of the six AIRCAP 1 sizes.
Cabinet dimensions can change between model years. Before ordering, measure your Malibu EC-754DL at its widest point across the top, in both directions, including any acrylic lip that overhangs the cabinet — the SureFit™ guide walks through it in two measurements. If a figure you have found elsewhere is larger than ours, an overhanging lip is the usual reason. If your spa measures between two sizes, round up.
Every spa in our catalogue that measures 87" x 87" is on one page: hot tubs that take an 87" × 87" cover — the same AIRCAP 1™ Medium, at the same price.
How the AIRCAP 1™ is built
Instead of a rigid foam core wrapped in vinyl, the AIRCAP 1™ uses welded drop-stitch construction: a sealed air chamber with no foam to absorb water, so it does not become the waterlogged two-person lift that ends most foam covers. More on how it insulates, how it holds up, and why it is foam-free — or estimate what your current foam cover weighs.

Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL cover: common questions
What size hot tub cover fits the Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL?
The Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL takes the AIRCAP 1 Medium, which fits square hot tubs measuring 86"–88" across. The Malibu EC-754DL's cabinet measures 87" x 87", inside that band. Measure your spa side to side across the top of the cabinet to confirm before ordering.
Will the AIRCAP 1 fit a Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL?
Yes — the Malibu EC-754DL's 87" x 87" square cabinet falls in the AIRCAP 1 Medium's 86"–88" range, and the Ziptech modular skirt system ships with three skirt lengths so the drop over the cabinet adjusts without a custom order. Cabinet sizes can change between model years, so confirm with two quick measurements.
How much does a replacement cover for the Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL cost?
The AIRCAP 1 costs $1,195 in every size, including the pump, three Ziptech skirt lengths, and tie-down straps, with free US shipping and 30-day returns. Unlike a foam cover it has no foam core to waterlog, so it stays at its original 35–40 lb weight for life.
How heavy is a replacement cover for the Cal Spas Malibu EC-754DL?
The AIRCAP 1 Medium weighs 35–40 lb and keeps that weight permanently — its sealed drop-stitch air core cannot absorb water. A foam cover starts at 40–75 lb and gains weight as the foam saturates.
